Quit trying to make a big deal out of nothing, since you're the only one who seems to notice.
Okay hows this in comparison. There was a British skiier who had his medal taken from him because he failed a drug test. That drug test was failed because Vicks Nasal tubes, which are over the counter normal medicines, are produced with different chemicals in the U.S than they are in the rest of the world. Is that fair?

Athletes on prescriptions are required to inform their respective bodies before competiting. If you don't, you fail. Same rules for everyone.
