American Freestyle Skiers Admit They Have 'Mixed Emotions' About Representing U.S. at Olympics amid ICE Raids
We paid to get them over there, we don’t have to pay to get them back here.
Then they should self-deport as well. We don’t need them.
Offended by immigration law finally being enforced. If they or anyone else doesn’t like this (long-standing) law, then lobby your congressman to change it. Anti-ICE virtue signaling ignoramuses act like Trump created the law.
Not surprised that freestyle skiers are doing this. Acrobatic skiers are more politically left than downhillers, in general.
I wonder if they noticed they needed documents to get into the host country, as in a visa. I guess they did not note that but what they definitely did not notice is no papers, no entry.
I don’t spend much time watching the stoner events anyway, but go home you ungrateful scum.
Yes, dumbass. Our citizens. What part of “illegal alien” do you not understand?
Shut up and ski, guys. You both have the IQ of an empty bag of Fritos.
Well then kick the Minnie Skinnies off the U.S.A. team. We’ve got all kinds of skiers. I really don’t want these bass turds on our team either.
Then don’t. Put your money where your mouths are.
Exactly.
And, why give them/anyone promoting this any air time?
It was a crappy situation with Eastern Bloc countries fielding their effectively professional athletes against a bunch of American kids. It wasn't at all fair, but it did feed an 'America standing against evil' theme. Now, so many of the world's best come to the US for training, the Olympics have become a creature of Madison Avenue. Even the opening ceremonies are just a recycled version of the "Millennium Walk" 2000 Super Bowl halftime show with Gaia presiding over a pagan ritual. It had NOTHING to do with what Italy brings to the world, with the exception of Andrea Bocelli's performance of Nessun Dorma. That had heart in it.
There was something special about Kurt Gowdy's reportage, so the Olympics lost something there too.
Morrissey, of all people said it best:
“When people talk about diversity, they don’t think about the great things we don’t have in common - this made countries very interesting... Now they want everything to be the same. Diversity means conformity.”
I have “mixed emotions” about those piggies representing my country too. They should have stayed home and watched Briar Rabbit’s Stupor bowel halftime show.
I’m not saying they’ll turn into anyone or anything in particular
I’m saying they have no credentials. People assume they were going off to school, getting knocked around in the lunchroom, that they were learning about America in class, about our government system. That they were visiting with grandparents sharing their awareness that Italy and all of Europe would be speaking German if our guys, guys like theses spoiled s—-s, spending the winter of 1945 in the forest not able to light a cigarette , much less a fire for prevention of giving away their position
And the US since then providing their defense, which, until now, we have paid for. The working stiffs that want to watch skiing, not some activist show us how he can also ski
He’ll do well. Some dumb swag line will pay him or he’ll teach whatever he does. But he’ll be ignorant of the US laws and orders like the education system he grew up in wants him to be
As soon as I saw Charlize Theron out there -not Italian, she represents the world of peace-with her brand new head, the boobs, claiming South Africa as her home, talking Nelson Mandela as better than Americans, after raking in Americans’ money for many many decades, I said ok. It’s on
No mention that our guys have been the Italians’ defense department since taking out Mussolini, whose Italy was nuts. They couldn’t nm e trusted with weapons
Now they’ve rejected Jesus
These people really need to shut up and ski
But you love the perks...Yes, it’s hard, dedicated work. ‘cept it’s play not work...It’s totally self serving.
Agreed, YOU DONT SUPPORT THE GREAT USA, THEN GET OUT.
YOU WONT BE MISSED !!!
But seriously folks. Who needs the Olympics, now or ever?
So, they work and train their whole lives to get to the Olympics, but politics upsets them enough to give all of that up? They already don’t represent America.
Yeah, we used to watch it religiously - including sports like curling - not so much now. And, after this, even less.
I look forward to the figure skating events - but if it goes “woke” or there are trannies involved, I’m out.
WTF is a freestyle skier anyway? Does he ski while twirling a ribbon? Sounds homo.
The necessary precondition for which is genetic uniformity, this from the same people pitching biodiversity.
