    Which quote, exactly, do you think she isn't respecting the team or country?
    It's as if you think protesting should be illegal. And she isn't even protesting the country or tRUMP. Do you just hate she's gay or what?

    Progressive/Leftist hate filled posters on this forum.

    Where else would I find it?

    Nothing to decide. She never mentioned tRUMP. Of course, if you ignore her words, you are deciding to ignore her words.

    OK, you make it up. Those you say are hate filled posters on the left, give links and data to back up the claims.
    Do you read them? And ignore? Or just not bother to read them at all?

    The poster you are making this particular claim about almost always, if not always, posts data to support a claim.
    RWers, almost never do. They make it up and most all others seem to like the made up BS.

    Already have and I actually understand how to use the caps lock key, which apparently some users here have no clue how to properly do, and can actually spell words properly, something else some here do not understand how to do.

    And the progressive/leftists think Trump is stupid!

    Not at all, my entire premise is you are clueless about this subject.

    And don't spell very well either.

    Can't believe this thread continues to lurk on the first page, although I see it stopped being about Megan, the Anthem, or Soccer a long time ago.

    US in their first knockout game tomorrow vs Spain... Any predictions? Anybody actually rooting for the US??

    I'd like to, but they make it real hard.... errr...... difficult...

    All the white countries beating all the non-white countries so far... must be making some people happy...

    So, you have no Clue why she is in a silent protest.
    But think I don't have a clue, even though, I posted a story and quotes from her why she is in silent protest.
    But you think it's about tRUMP? That would be clueless.

    You offer nothing about the topic, but only can talk about spelling of one word. That is a position of have ZERO on the topic.

    tRUMPers always think everything in the world is about tRUMP. Even when no hint in the world had anything to do with tRUMP. Confused lot they are.

    It's not hard for me to root for them at all. They have a swagger and a killer attitude that US soccer needs right now. It was nice seeing the men take it to Trinidad yesterday too.

    "Illegal" oh don't be absurd with your strawman, you know I have said nothing not even close to "illegal" why try to put words in my mouth. I've been quite clear and cited what she has said, if you don't bother to read it don't respond.

    And that is where you just crossed the line of civil discourse, I'm not going to argue bogus arguments you try to assign to me.

    Bye

    It is our recognized league sanctioned team. Why do you keep trying to drag the government into it. I have cited her words twice now, I have obligation to repeat and besides you already crossed the line in this one.

    Here is my post you decided to alter against the rules of the forum.
    You have cited nothing. Where are her exact words that she is protesting tRUMP. Post her quote.
    You crossed the line. Don't post false threads with supposed quotes.
    Where is she against the country or tRUMP? She is merely standing silently during the NA. Nothing else.

    You have left other threads when asked for actual facts to a claim.
    It is best you provide the proof, or leave again.

    This is the quote you have in the OP.
    Where is the "
    ‘F You’ To Trump"
    That your OP title claims?

    She's incredibly selfish and ungrateful.

    Her teammates will all suffer in viewership, commercial payoffs, and long term popularity, because she wants to be an attention whore.

    Why should anyone who values freedom, liberty, and courage sing a racist song that boasts about killing slaves who dared to fight for their own freedom and liberty?

    I am not convinced nor should you be. (1) Four people looking in different directions. (2) Obama's feet nearly larger than the two women. (3) The flag suspended .... from nothing. Give me a break.

    I would think that Lefties would be up in arms about this. Remember when the three Black athletes gave the black power sign at the Olympics? They were stripped of their awards and thrown off the team IIRC. Isn't she getting favorable treatment for her disrespect of her team and the country who she is suppose to represent?

    Is that true? How can the Olympic committee take away their awards? They have nothing to do with internal U.S. affairs and those athletes won their events fair and square. In any case, Olimpic awards are won for their respective nations, not so much for the athletes themselves.

    No, I do not think you are right.
