There is no question about it. The IAAF is out of their minds.
So was Rodriguez DQ's for elbowing or stepping inside the rail? I couldn't tell. It appears that elbowing is allowed unless someone falls?

It's pretty difficult to elbow someone who is in front of you. Rodriguez was behind Burka when the supposed contact happened. Watch the replay with the camera in front.
And watch the Steelers last second touchdown in the superbowl. Half of the views he is out, half he is in.
Semen maker is a Black man, while Rodriguez is a white woman.
Black men need all the help they can get.
Its good some of you are starting to see the obvious racism and favoritism from the IAAF that you've been missing for so long.
Notice how all the Jamaican 4x1 team was either doped, not present at the medal ceremony or highly suspiscious.
Just like Campbell Brown wouldn't do a victory lap with the light skinned Allyson Felix because she's a racist doped pig.
Its racism, against everything white, and ironically even anything part white, or associated with white, including African Americans participating for the US.
The IAAF needs to be disbanded, and Lamine Diack thrown in jail. Lamine Diack is going to kill our sport, because he seems to think Africa has money. Africa has no money, its in America and Europe, and if those fans aren't happy there is no track and field. Someone get his ass OUT of where it is, because he's turning our sport into a joke.
Rodgriguez was DQ'd maybe for pushing the lead runner down, but she did step inside the rail at the same moment. Watch and check the vid at 22 seconds.

The rule is 3 steps, and its clear Burka impeded her. That is not DQ'able.
Only reason Rodriquez was DQ'ed was because she was white, and Burka is black.
Only reason Semen maker is allowed to keep his women's 800 medal is because he too is black. If he were white he would be disqualified.
F*** the IAAF and F*** anyone who comes on this board to defend its biased and racist policies. European and American fans are pissed off with the double standards and bullshit.
I share your frustration but lets compare apples with apples. Just because Semenya didnt get DQ, it shouldn't have any implication on the decision to DQ Rodriguez. The IAAF was wrong for letting her compete in the first place. Watch, this will be Semenya's last International race ever as a woman.
Truthiness. Your TROLL RATING is 3/10 because you'll get people all X-cited about your Hilter Youth post. SIEG HEIL!
Don't worry man. Do not feel too angry. Two white runners won medals (including one white man!). Accentuate the positive. White people can do it.
Semenya's gender test is still ongoing, she could lose the medal.
And if you actually see the event (you can't from the grainy Youtube footage) then you'll notice that she most definitely pushed Burka and caused her fall. I saw it in slow motion on NBC HD and it was obvious from that footage that she deserved the DQ.
