Serena Williams Loses Tennis Match, American Media Weeps

Posted on 09/12/2015 5:18:50 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Just grazing through the nets today, you would think a tennis player losing a match was enough to send the American media into an inconsolable frenzy.

I think they are more worked up over Serena losing then they were about the MULTIPLE COPS murdered in the past month.

Likewise, the James Blake story is getting TONS of coverage! Yet the pandemic murders of police? Under the rug.

She walked off the court with Vinci and was twice her size!

Has she ever been given a DNA test to see which sex she is? How about a steroid test? Something isn’t right there.

Living in FL I expect you get a lot more news coverage of the Williams sisters especially
during tennis tournaments than the rest of the country does. They have dominated women’s
tennis for several years now.

DNA test shouldn’t matter anymore... As long as she identifies as a woman...

During her interview after she qualified for the final, she remarked that she just wanted to go to bed. She didn’t look well.

If the military staged a coup IAW the Constitution, it would have popular support of all those mentioned above. A coup would save the nation. CWII would totally destroy it.


NO COUP! Any military that commits a coup IAW the Constitution can do the same AGAINST the Constitution. Our founding fathers gave We The People the power. We just have to use it correctly. That means being engaged, campaigning, knocking on doors, talking to people, making phone calls, being activists, calling Congress members, protesting (peacefully) if necessary. We get the government we vote for.

Maybe the Tennis Association should have long ago conducted a ‘skivy inspection’ to verify she was a she.

That’s probably already been quietly done. I don’t think they aren’t female, but I am not so certain there aren’t performance enhancing drugs involved at one time or another in their development.

Actually, I don’t care for them. But if they can win within the established rules, more power to them.

“Someone “please” tell me that the picture is photo shopped ...

“PLEASE !!!!””

It’s real as far as i’m concerned. Read accusations made of steroids used when she was a teen. Can’t confirm it.
