Hammer thrower Gwen Berry turns away from flag while anthem plays at Olympic trials

[printcraft]

Denial. Or smug arrogance claiming Parks words as dismissive and racist.

Or based on the black on asian racism we've been seeing recently, She'd just beat Parks' a** for the statement.

I was age 9 during the 1964 Olympics. Kept hearing on TV about a great hammer thrower. Grabbed a ball peen hammer from the garage, went into the backyard, spun around, and sailed that sucker over the clothesline and thru the basement window into Dad's work room. I expected a whipping, but after he heard my story, dad didn't have the heart for it.

Wait a minute.

You had story time before the beatings commenced?

Hmm, that is not my experience.

I'd just like for the normal pastimes not to be filled with activists. Activism is evil.

I hope this was a joke, our country was founded on Activism, and has grown because of activism... its the heart of the american way... Like, imagine if there was never a tea party....

Nope. Activists can **** all the way off. People fighting for their rights is one thing. People fighting to assert their rights over someone else's is another. Of course I’m defining activism very narrowly to make a point about today’s activists.

Wonder how those poor loyalists felt?

 

[J Galt]

A. Is that another trans athlete?

B. Is there any other athlete from any other county "protesting" their country during their Olympic trials?

The left is so far bent out of shape... if this was 1860, democrats would be bragging about the first trans slave owner.

 

[Flash-hider]

This keeps reaffirming my decision many, many, many, years ago to stop watching the olympics.

 

[Ziggidy]

They lost because they are not a team.
