U.S. soccer star Megan Rapinoe knelt during the national anthem Sunday night before the Seattle Reign’s game against the Chicago Red Stars “in a little nod” to NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick.

Kaepernick’s refusal to stand for the anthem to protest racial injustice and minority oppression came to public notice when he remained seated on the...

NUFF SAID

On July 2, 2012, Rapinoe came out as lesbian in an interview with Out magazine, in which she revealed that she had been in a relationship with Australian football player Sarah Walsh since 2009.[123][124] After approximately five years together, Rapinoe and Walsh ended their relationship in 2013. Rapinoe has since been dating Sub Pop recording artist Sera Cahoone.[125] Rapinoe and Cahoone announced their engagement in August 2015.

Everything is twisted and getting more so day by day.

How much you wann'a bet this is the new way of respect rather than standing ?

When I was a kid, and even through my adult years, standing at attention (if you wore one, hat off) was the proper way to respect our The National Anthem.

NOW ... I see more and more .. people putting their hands over their hearts when The National Anthem is played.

I remember people putting their hands over their hearts when the Flag passed by during a parade .... it was the civilian allowance of a salute.

If you are in uniform, you stand at attention and salute with your hand to your brow


I predict kneeling will become more and more common ... unless some tough mofo's start kicking the kneelers over

“If I watched soccer, I’d boycott it. This girl is weak. “

Yeah, and the clock has run out on her, same as Solo. She came back for the Olympics badly out of shape and obviously her wheels are shot. In today’s women’s soccer, speed kills. No speed and you will get killed. I doubt that we will have to endure her much longer.

““Being a gay American, I know what it means to look at the flag and not have it protect all of your liberties.”

This is really unbelievable to me. This is a woman who has been embraced as a USA Women's team soccer player, and no one cared/cares that she is gay. The USA Women's soccer team coach is gay, and no one cared/cares about that. They have been afforded great careers and public adoration for what they do, and given the honor of representing the USA. How is that suppression of liberties?

Being gay has had stigma attached to it. That's life, and it clearly has changed dramatically. Racism has changed dramatically. Anti-Semitism contributed to the horrific gas chamber deaths of millions of Jews, and there remains anti-Semitism. I don't see her on her knee before games for that.

As for the quarterback, he makes more money annually than most people will see in a lifetime, and his race certainly did not hold him back. He is, also, half white - so prejudice/racism didn't stop his white mother from conceiving him with a black father, and loving him. This has gone on way too far. Try going other places in the world to see real oppression.

I used to boo Carlos Delgado, when he played against my Yankees. Better if the SOB snuck out to take a leak during the anthem instead of sitting in the dugout and disrespecting America for all to see.

Kaepernick social media posts laud Black Lives Matter, Black Panthers, since dating activist DJ

August 30, 2016
FoxNews.com

'History!' Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15 [2015], when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.

Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends.

But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur.

During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white “X” and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.”

For anyone who didn't know, the original Black Panthers were a communist-revolutionary domestic terrorist group like Bill Ayers' Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army. All were Maoist to be precise.

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

I wonder if this soccer “star” understands that to Muslims (like Kaepernick), killing gays and Lesbians is a requirement of strict adherence to their so-called religion?
