Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry ‘pissed’ national anthem was playing at Olympic trials
A U.S. hammer thrower turned away from the American flag as she stood on the medal podium at the Olympic trials during the national anthem on Saturday, saying she’s “pissed” the Star-Spangled Banner was played as she received her bronze medal.
Gwen Berry — who qualified for her second U.S. Olympic team during the trials — shifted to face the stands rather than the flag before holding up a black shirt that reads “Activist Athlete.”
“I feel like it was a set-up, and they did it on purpose,” Berry said of the timing of the anthem. “I was pissed, to be honest.”

What the F is that?? Tell it to compete for the Federated States of Loon and Crazies...
If it doesn't like the nation anthem, it can go to a country where they accept those creatures...

By turning her back on the flag, she
doesn’t represent the USA. The whole
point of the olympics boils down to
the pride one has in that country.
Why is she there if she’s embarrassed
upon hearing (her) national anthem?

Kick her off the team. She obviously doesn’t represent the USA.

The other American women looked natural and attractive.
This one is all about herself, and needs to find a new country to represent.
(I’m sure the Jamaican Bobsleigh team can always use another body...)
