Olympic hurdler Lolo Jones was the target of overblown media outrage last week when she tweeted, “USA Men’s Archery lost the gold medal to Italy but that’s ok, we are Americans… When’s da Gun shooting competition?”
So how ’bout those skeet shooting results?
S/O to @lolojones … she predicted gold for USA in shooting competition and we got 2

Kimberly Rhode ties world record, wins gold for US in women's skeet. Rare event where US and China actually went head-to-head, and US won.

After Team USA scored two skeet shooting golds, Jones enjoyed letting the “lame stream media” know she was right.
RT @SprankleGoneRaw: Gold in both men's and women's "gun shootin" @lolojones was right. Hope the lame stream media is aploigic to her.
