Will this madness never end?

Not fast enough

On the shooting death of Ecuadorian sprinter, Alex Quiñónez, outside a shopping centre in Guayaquil, BBC News notes that This is the second killing of an international athlete this month. Just over a week ago, Agnes Tirop was stabbed to death in Kenya.

I'm not sure what the point of that observation was, really, Auntie Beeb. Are you suggesting that they're somehow connected; that there's a global conspiracy to murder athletes that I've never heard of, at least until their deaths are reported? Otherwise it just seems pointlessly random. An observation for the sake of making an observation.

Still, it's not the first time, and I doubt it'll be the last.
