In years past any athlete that showed that much disrespect for the country would not be allowed to represent it.
Why do we tolerate this behavior among athletes representing this nation?
Free speech is great, but folks representing America should respect our symbols.
They clearly do not represent the US so should be kicked off the team.
“Her”?
RE: Why do we tolerate this behavior among athletes representing this nation?
In a sane country, we should not. But we don’t live in a sane country and the American Olympic Committee is not a sane organization.
That’s a man, baby

In years past, men pretending to be women would not be allowed to compete in Women’s sports.
But the IOC is allowing it in Tokyo. Insanity has infected the world.

It doesn’t matter anymore.

If she hates the U.S. so much, DON’T REPRESENT US AT THE OLYMPICS.
Yes, I realize I’m shouting but that’s just how mad people like her make me.
If the committee allows her attitude without repercussion........expect more of the same
Actions should have consequences
Apparently so.
She should instead consider it an honor.
If I had athletic skills, I certainly would be awestruck by the idea of representing my country.
People have the right to free speech.
My questions are why does the US participate in the Zplymoucscat all?
And why does this person chose to compete for and represent the U.S.? Seems hypocritical and opportunistic and shows a lack of integrity. Who can take the protest seriously?
She was third in our Olympic trials, so I doubt there’s much chance she’d finish in the top three among everyone in Tokyo, so no worries about this fool protesting.
There are numerous “paradises” in Sub-Saharan Africa where she can move to.
Try that crap in China and you will disappear.
Why be on a team you don’t respect ?
She is ticked off because two whities beat her. Goes against blacks are the superior athletes mantra.
True. Where is Austin Powers when you need him?
