Megan Rapinoe isn’t here to make you comfortable
Washington Post ^ | June 26, 2019 | Jerry Brewer

It’s hard to keep count of all the polarizing ways that people describe Megan Rapinoe. The U.S. women’s soccer forward is a star, and she’s a pariah. She’s fun-loving, and she’s annoying. She’s exuberant, and she’s excessive. She’s a necessary voice, and she’s an irreverent troublemaker. She’s delightful, and she’s disgraceful. She’s essential to our World Cup hopes, and when she declines to sing “The Star-Spangled Banner” with her teammates, she’s inappropriate for our world-class ego.

She’s America, too, by the way. Oh, she’s America. And there is no counter to that.

Well, after they run around for a while in that heat I think they must get kind of hot.

She’s a nasty broad, this one.

Does not represent me nor my Country.

Here’s the way I look at it. This person had an opportunity to represent the gay community with some class and dignity on the world stage. She could have proudly stood with her hand over her heart, and recited the words. Then she could have said at a presser, how proud she was to represent this country and the freedoms she has been given. Because after all, she is allowed to marry same sex, she is allowed to speak out at the right times and she is using taxpayers money to PLAY SOCCER, SHE FAILED.

The truth is........most of these people are not yet capable of getting beyond their sexuality and the truth is Donald Trump has done nothing to prevent them from living their lifestyles. But, as usual, someone always has to be the cause of their cause.
