tvc184 Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 Low life piece of…. She has a right to protest anything she wishes but I believe the Olympic committee should have the right to kick her off the team and should. If she does not like what America stands for along with the flag that represents it, why is she going to the Olympics to represent the USA? Hey, if you don’t want to represent, fine with me. Go somewhere else. LumRaiderFan and Chester86 2 Quote

Hagar Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 Yep, why should America send an athlete to represent her when she dislikes America. I really wish she’d move to Uganda and represent them. I’d be willing to bet she’d come flying back to America first chance she got. Only thing I can say to explain her actions, she’s a Democrat, ergo she’s been filled with the Hate America rhetoric. Never seen ether of our Political Parties polarized by hate before, but I see it now in the Dems. How rare to see a Democratic politician smile. Quote

Chester86 Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 To think of all the Americans who have shed their blood willingly to provide a blanket of freedom for people to sleep under. Then have seemingly an entire generation and movement be embarrassed to have that flag wave over them as they spew hatred, bigotry and misplaced anger toward it. It is beyond mortifying to think of where we are as a country. This movement of socialism, entitlement and anti-American sentiment has been allowed and encouraged to fester and we are reaping the apathy in all phases of our society. Hagar 1 Quote

tvc184 Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 It is my personal opinion that she is simply selfish. Not because she is turning her back on the flag, which is political. The question I asked and I think I have the answer was, why does she want to represent a country and a flag what she appears to hate so much? She wants to take the bow. She wants everyone to look at her and her accomplishment. That is fine on an individual stage however in the Olympics, you were representing your country, period. Look at George Foreman, raised about 90 miles from us in Houston. He was raised in the fifth Ward which didn’t have the best reputation. Before he was born, the ward was called the bloody fifth. Wikipedia says that George foreman claimed he had a “troubled youth”. He dropped out of school at 15 years old and became a mugger. So he was probably committing felonies and robbing people for his money. When he was 16 Foreman saw an add for the Job Corps and signed up. He made the decision to change his life. He gained a couple of working skills and got his GED. He later took up boxing. Most people at least roughly probably know his story. But….. this troubled youth from a bad neighborhood went on to represent his country in the Olympics. When he won his final match in the Olympics that allowed him to win the gold medal, he walked around the ring waving the same American flag that this girl is turning her back on. In a later interview he said I wish I would’ve had two flags. Look at Chloe Kim. Her parents came from South Korea and the winter Olympics were in South Korea. When she blew away the competition to win the gold medal, is she protest? Did she hold up the flag of South Korea where she was at and that was her heritage and where her parents were from? No. She immediately held up the American flag which was probably bigger than she was. So yes, Berry wants the stage of the Olympics and wants everyone to look at her. That is understandable but she is still there to represent her country and she does not wish to do so. She needs to drop out of the Olympics and stick with professional athletics what she can take that individual bow if that is what she so desires.

Chester86 Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 Why is it your place to tell someone when they can protest the protest? I seriously see your posts, rolls my eyes and inwardly chuckle. Hey, everyone is invited to express their views and opinions though so type on. Quote

Nobody has said that she (or anyone) could not protest any way she wishes. 2. This might sound like a strange concept but don’t old white people have the same right to protest or express their opinion? Just like I have seen it said from the opposite side of the aisle many times, words and actions have consequences. Recently a police officer made a video mocking LeBron James. He was terminated. I suspect some of the same people supporting this woman were the ones calling for his termination. He was on a team and this woman is on the team. They both represent someone. It would be mighty hypocritical to believe that officer should be terminated for a joke against a public figure but the woman representing the country turn her back on the flag of that country. thetragichippy 1 Quote

I think it’s great that she protested. It’s her right. Besides that, I would not let her represent the US team by turning her back on the US flag. Perhaps she should go to the team where she respects their country and flag instead. Although, I’m sure that doesn’t exist. While her freedom of speech is a precious right, representing her country in the Olympics is not. CardinalBacker 1 Quote

baddog Posted June 28, 2021 Report Posted June 28, 2021 She won’t get the opportunity to do this again. She placed 3rd in the trials here, so she probably won’t place in the Olympics at all. SmashMouth and thetragichippy 2 Quote

If you or I are in a company uniform and protest "XXXXX(fill in the blank), it is very likely we will be terminated because we do not represent the company views, and that makes PERFECT sense. If you can protest white supremacy at work, why can't I protest that all violent criminals get the death penalty by public hanging at work? When you represent someone other than yourself, you should represent them like they want.......and even Obama, Hillary or Clinton did not disrespect the flag or the anthem in public......
