Rapinoe and ALL of those like her are welcome to leave my country at anytime!

Has Trump invited the team to the White House or is he ungrateful for the work they accomplished on the field in the World for America?

No one says she can't protest and complain all she wants. But, she is playing on a team pay for by USSF members and other Americans. She does not own the platform she is speaking on. She represents the entire country, not just her personal interests. If she worked at Wendy's, she would be fired if she protest in the dining room against meat. Keep politics out of the game. USSF needs to impose strict behavior rules on their players. Viewership in 2015 was 25.4mil, this year viewership was 14.3mil. Wonder why?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOne of the opportunities she is afforded is the right to speak up and/or protest. What part of that did you miss during your civics class in high school?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostHow come she is afforded the right to speak up and/or protest while others are condemned for disagreeing with her stance? Seems to me it's a double standard. The same people who spoke out against Tim Tebow kneeling applaud the loadest for Kapernick. Who is right or wrong? You can't cherry-pick a person's rights over another. That was taught in civics class. The examples are endless. It just comes down to one thing. The world has become too soft and everybody is offended by something. Get over yourselves, you're not as important as you think you are.
But if, for example, someone says they think people of color shouldn't be able to serve in Congress, I'm going to call them out for being racist and ignorant of our system of government. There are consequences for our words and deeds.
I gather Rapinoe and Kaepernick know full well the consequences of expressing a provocative opinion. Too bad other people think they should be able to say and do whatever they want without risking public criticism, which is most definitely a potential consequence.
You open your mouth, you better be able to accept the reaction and not whine about being persecuted if your opinion turns out to be an unpopular one.
