The US is actually Leading in the GOLD medal count
Can't Post
The US is leading in the gold medal count for any event decided by a clock, a measuring stick, or an objective scoreboard.
The Chinese gold medal 'lead' is built on sports that are judged, and we all know that judges can be 'persuaded' by strong arm authoritative communists.
I would like to call on the famed Doctor Andrew Coggan, PhD, to immediately begin a statistical analysis on the uneven distribution of Chinese Gold medal in the 'judged' sports like diving, gymnastics, and judo, which will surely conclude that the Chinese have cheated at the Olympics, as they have been known to do in other activities like cards, checkers (Chinese), and games of king of the hill (see photo evidence below).

Scoring is based on a judgment of technique and skill of throws and what really is an ippon? Too much subjectivity!
