Professional athletes kneeling for the national anthem has become commonplace nowadays that those who decide to stand for the patriotic song are met with backlash and forced to explain themselves.

U.S. women’s soccer player Carli Lloyd is learning this the hard way, as she was just forced to defend herself when she decided to stand for the anthem while the rest of her team took a knee.

Those who insult America need to leave.

Good for her—she has nothing to defend herself for.

[BenLurkin]

Things are truly upside down when people are harassed for being patriotic.

Hop into the time machine and tell the folks in Sept 2001 about this. They'll ask how Islam conquered us. But we did it to ourselves (with some help from China).

Honestly, a lot of people in this country need to drop dead. The propping up of Biden as President is just going to accelerate this nonsense.

Have they kicked her off the team yet?

It’s going to get worse.

It’s a very telling sign and they are the same Rat Communists that were spouting anti-American “has never been great or even good” rhetoric back in the 40s and 50s.

Pretty sad when you are accused of being defiant for simply being patriotic and loving you country. This says a lot about those that are accusing her. They clai to love this country and be patriotic too, and they bet ticked when you question their .orally to America, But its a blatant lie. Their actions prove they hate this country and what it sta do for.

Good on Carli. She has nothing to apologize for and should demand that the naysayers apologize to her for being antiAmerican dubs

“defiant”??

Yes, the rest of the team knelt defiantly!

It is one thing to kneel during the National Anthem if you’re a professional athlete; but to kneel while you are on a team that represents the USA, while you stand for the anthems of other countries is too ridiculous for words.

[cuban leaf]

What’s to explain. We stand during the anthem. Anything else is a form of protest. And we all have the right to protest or not protest. End of story.

[conservative98]

Because she’s not a programmed sheep?

Exactly, if you don't like the USA, Cuba is always in need of good bobsledders.

Pointless lip service amongst the LMNOP pedophile crowd!

[KC_Lion]

Ping!

She’s the best woman’s soccer player on the planet she has no reason to defend herself
