Ruh Roh. No doubt the aclu or splc is already on this since it violated their rights. Or something. Are there tax dollars involved in sponsoring or supporting them?

Probation is far too mild. If it never happens again, that’s barely acceptable. If it happens again, I want consequences for the entire sport and not just for the disgusting loser (and I’m a fencing fan).

just make a policy like the hockey coach did- do it once, get punished- twice- you’re off the team- We don’t need anti-Americans representing America!

Yep. I'd rather not medal at all than tolerate that type of offensive behavior

I used to love Johnny Quest and his sidekick, Haji! Dr. Quest's sidekick was the capable Race Bannon

Don’t know why people can’t give their kids normal names, like mine, Harry, Ron and Hermione.

But will the letter of reprimand only serve to embolden Imboden?
To: rktman
Is anyone getting tired of this childish behavior by grownup Americans . . .make that grownup in name only? They are literally making fools of themselves and probably embarrassing their relatives. Who in their right mind would pay their hard earned $$$$ to watch these goofballs . . maybe those who don’t make hard-earned money.

Did they do this on American soil or outside of the USA. I think it makes a difference.

“Probation is far too mild.”
Perhaps, but I’m pretty sure they are following procedure as is required.
Now that they’re on probation, if it happens again they can be removed from the team.
