    That kind of **** isn't allowed to be posted in this group.

    I already sourced it for you.

    Follow the CLEAR AND PRECISE instructions I gave you and you will see what I'm talking about.

    (And from the time you took to reply to my post, you most likely already have.)

    You never sourced what the average gay community wants. You just proved what 1 person likes to do during a gay pride parade.

    Exactly.

    And, I hope the 2020 Olympians follow her lead.

    Its the same as 'taking a knee'. That the most undisruptive 'protest' I have ever seen. These guys do not scream obscenities, they do not offer up the 'finger' or any graphic gestures, or make wild distracting movements that might disturb anyone who actually wants to listen to the anthem or see their nephew perform, or just enjoy hearing the song. No, these football players bend to one knee quietly and inobtrusively. If you think about what bending a knee normally suggests in western cultures, it's more of gesture of respect and deference than insult. You might bend a knee sometimes when in in the presence of royalty, or when proposing marriage, or in certain religious ceremonies but it is NEVER in western culture insulting or belittling.

    These conservatives have to do a hell of a lot of twisting, to turn that act into some unpatriotic or disrespectful act.

    You just did a hell of a lot of twisting to turn that act into something respectful. It wasnt respectful in any way.

    It caused me to turn off the NFL for a full season in a half and I think last season I may be watched 4 games because honestly I found out that I didn't miss it much. I found other hobbies and probably will never go back to a regular Sunday football watcher.

    It won't really impact my Women's World Cup watching because I don't watch Women's World Cup.

    But again I blame the media for actually giving them attention and filming one jerk while ignoring 60,000 people not being jerks. what they should have done is ignored them. Don't give jerks free air time.

    Why the hell did you ever care who stands and who bends on one knee when the anthem is played? could you not hear the singer, and enjoy that performance just as well either way? They harmed nobody by bending a knee. That you actually thought is was worth even noticing,let alone changing your viewing habits, tells me you had too much time on your hands.

    The media would not have made it that big a story, if it did not get fed by people like you, in full faux outrage.

    Ya. Whatever, you can twist an angle that all you want but I was offended. I didn't lose any sleep over it I didn't March in the streets didn't burn any Flags, but clearly with the nfl the media had an agenda and they certainly shoved that story down my throat. Had to quit listening to espn Radio in the morning on my drive to work as well because every single day it was a Kaepernick update during free agency, a washed up backup, I was fine with it the first day but after about seven straight days of Kaepernick updates I was annoyed, changed the channel.

    as far as how much time it consumed I think about four to five seconds because that's what it takes to find the remote and hit the button. Done.

    Not necessary with women's soccer, wasn't going to watch anyway.

    If a defensive back took a knee in protest and let the guy covering him score, that would be a problem. I really don’t care what they do before or after the game no matter what their political views are.

    Megan is not even a good player. She sucked in the game against Thailand.

    That's what happens when you have so much hate and resentment, it affects your game.

    She is a spoiled, ignorant, idiot... which is allowed in this country.

    Hopefully someday she wishes up, or moves to Iran. Whichever would be great.

    So far I only saw a picture of 1 gay person during a gay parade....
    That really is just a joke of an argument to claim this is what all gays want.

    Nope. She spits on the Christian/Jewish conservative GOP who refuses support the idea "the land of the free" for the LGBT community.

    It is the same when 2 black dudes did their fist in the air at the Olympics of 1968. They stood there not hating the US, just making a point about being racially oppressed. They were kicked off from the Olympics by a white American who had no problem with nazi salutes at the Olympics previously. It took decades for white American to acknowledge that they were in the wrong back in the day.

    The flag covers all of us. Is she mad because we won't let her be gay? Which American athletes were doing that Nazi salute thing and when?

    People went nazi saluting during the hitler games. The US gimp who demanded those black people being kicked off, was a supporter of the nazi salute.


    As one of them black athletes said at the time:
    "If I win, I am American, not a black American. But if I did something bad, then they would say I am a Negro. We are black and we are proud of being black. Black America will understand what we did tonight." It took decades for white American to understand something this simple. More like... they understood it, they were just in total denial that discrimination of black people was normal. And this what we got now, is not any different. The Christian/Jewish conservative GOP got a moral problem with accepting their hatred is there, openly, and wrong.

    And the American who supported the nazi salutes, while being against a salute against being oppressed, was Avery Brundage. So you know.... white privilege, even back in the day.
