Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

This is where the people need to take a stand. If a gay man wants to show he’s proud to be gay, let him wear a shirt. But why does she have to be proud the guy is gay?

She'll no doubt be labeled a "hater"but this was a true sacrifice made by a very admirable young lady.

Our son had a friend in theater years ago who was an amazing performer. She received the offer to be in the chorus in Les Miserables - on tour. Great gig for a newbie. She had to turn it down because she was not allowed to opt out of the prostitute scene. I need to see what she’s up to now.

Good for him! I’m sick of this sodomite crap shoved in our faces every day. You can’t even turn of the TV without seeing decrepit perverts on a commercial (PNC mortgages for example).

Why on earth would the US soccer team feel the need to wear gay pride shirts? Totally gratuitous.

Yup, sodomite-fascists decree you must bake the cake, wear the uniform, etc., etc.

Not too long ago conservatives and Christians were chided and chastised for opposing "normalized" acceptance of sodomites. "Who is it hurting"..."How does this affect you" were the complaints of those who said they just wanted to be free to live their lives. Now, submission to this ongoing insanity is required...as we knew it would.

I will not submit.

Well done, young lady!

Whoever decided to wear this crap should be fired.

I admire her stand, but let's not mischaracterize this. She's not being "persecuted" at all. She won't play for the team because she refuses to wear the official jersey they'll be wearing for the game.

This would have been no different than Colin Kaepernick retiring from the NFL because he didn't want to stand for the national anthem. We may not agree with him but it would be a principled thing for him to do -- not "persecution" by any definition.

The next step for the women’s national team will be when men, who identify as women, begin to take the women’s spots.

Don’t ask / Don’t tell

Don’t ask me to approve your life-style. I won’t have to tell you I don’t.

She should have simply played without the sodomy-themed jersey and let the team deal with her.

The Houston Astros wore the rainbow 40 years ago.
