Richard Kilty in the second heat of the men's 100m competing against Usain Bolt, was disqualified for starting too early.

Argued the decision with lots of ghetto arm action then pushed one of the workers that was trying to usher him away (an elderly man). What a thug. I am so shocked and I think he should be prevented from competing in other competitions. Violence towards officials should NOT be tolerated.

Please define "ghetto arm action"?

I saw it. I understand his frustration but shoving an official is not acceptable. There will be repercussions.

I think you know what I mean by ghetto arm action.

One of the consequences of steroid abuse is often irrational and sudden violence. 'Roid Rage, I believe it's called.

I've no idea what 'ghetto arm action' is either

I can't find anything about this on the BBC web site - interesting as the Beeb seem to be covering the event.
Yes, this guy is going to regret his actions for a very long time.
