Team USA shooter Amanda Furrer throws Corey Cogdell under the bus? Updated

Furrer posted that tweet just after anti-hunting activists began their vicious attacks on Corey Cogdell — a story brought to you exclusively by Twitchy.

Since the controversy began, Furrer has not tweeted a single word in support of Cogdell.

Fortunately, many Americans have stepped up to the plate to voice their support for a U.S. Olympic shooter facing unhinged death wishes.

Update:  Furrer has deleted the tweet featured at the top of this post and stated unequivocally that she stands by Cogdell:

I am in full support of my teammates and their decisions to participate in the hunting sports. Prior comments on hunting from me were in…

…response to threatening messages I received from people ignorant to facts. I am very close with my teammates and stand by them.

It sounds like Furrer may have received threatening messages from anti-hunting activists. We have asked her for clarification and will update if/when we hear back.

Confirmed:

@TwitchyTeam that is correct. My previous statement was misconstrued and taken out of context of the situation I was put in.

Update: Gold medal winner Kim Rhode, who was sharing a root beer with Cogdell this afternoon, retweeted Furrer’s supportive tweets.
