The sample mean of Cauchy data never concentrates

Suppose {X1,X2,…,Xn}\{X_1,X_2,\dots,X_n\} is a random sample from Cauchy C(θ,1)C(\theta,1) distribution. A test procedure for testing H0:θ=0H_0:\theta=0 against the alternative H1:θ≠0H_1:\theta\neq0 is not consistent if the test statistic is based on:
