While I deeply regret Vanderlei's losing the race I applaud the Horan's courage in telling the world his message. I ask anyone, if they believed that the world was about to face a cataclysmic event, if they would not try to capture the world's attention by whatever means they could. In the end, the Olympics are nothing more than spectacle...there are more important things, which Horan is boldly trying to communicate. God bless you, Rev. Horan

I think he should have done some jail time for this. Stupid suspended sentence! He's got a record! What religion does he claim to be that approves of physically assaulting people to get some half cracked message out?

I'm glad this despicable idiot isn't getting more press. The I0C should award a second gold to De Lima, and Horan should get to experience some Greek culture in one of their penal institutions. Yeah, and before anyone else points it out, I know he's Irish. Bastard, I'd have an easier time defending the Provos.

This guy deserves a beat down. This, along with the guy in the tutu jumping into the pool, is absurd. Whether it's to advertise for a company or to get your insane views on the air, pulling this kind of crap isn't going to get people to really listen to whatever views they're trying to express. The crowd should've beat the crap out of him.

I'm surprised this guy isn't getting more press... what a bizarre situation. The Brazilian runner is cruising along, looking like a lock for gold, as this leprechaun looking man in a skirt jumps out and tackles him in order to warn the world to repent? Shouldn't this be front page news? Alas, Vanderlei lost his gold and Cornelius walks away with a slap on the wrist. I think they should force Cornelius to run a marathon as punishment.
