Interesting.
She's not for gay pride.Interesting.
I assume the womens soccer team has some openly gay women on it. So she had no trouble playing on a team with gay people, just didn't wanna wear the patch on her jersey.
I see no difference between this and Kramer not wanting to wear the ribbon. He was of course against aids, but just didn't want to wear the ribbon. What's the big deal right?
"At the end of the day, I'm still going to be friends with her. We have no problems with each other. She's never said anything bad about me. She never said anything bad about anybody. So, for people to pass on that kind of judgement on another human being, I think it's sort of uncalled for. She's got her opinions. That's fine. Everybody does. It hasn't affected our team at all."
I didn't say it bothered them, I said she's not for gay pride."At the end of the day, I'm still going to be friends with her. We have no problems with each other.

From one of her teammates. If it doesn't bother them, I don't know why it would bother anyone else , or cause someone that never met her to call her a goon
It only bothers the SJW’s which is a huge part of the problem in this country.maybe you should stop beating the guy I originally quoted to the punch
You're the first person who's ever asked me to stop punching Officer Pete Malloy.maybe you should stop beating the guy I originally quoted to the punch
It seemed to bother you. You inexplicably seem to think someone's interfering with her right to protest.
Persecuted? You don’t find that to be a touch hyperbolic when she got booed?
How is she being persecuted? By being required to wear an identical jersey that all of her teammates will be wearing? Are you suggesting she should be the only team member allowed to wear a different jersey because of anti gay pride views?
She hasn’t been called back up to the National team since she refused to wear a gay pride jersey.
Of course it does. Standing for the anthem should not be forced on NFL players. They should have the right to kneel respectfully. He does not wish to participate in a public show of patriotism, while she does not wish to participate in a public show of wearing a jersey with a message she finds offensive.
And Rosa Parks could have protested at the bus stop or in front of Montgomery City Hall, but it wouldn't have had the same impact, would it?
I wasnt aware Rosa Parks was on the clock in her work uniform when that happened. That is new information to me.
WAY ahead of the curve. I enacted a self-imposed ban on travel to Oklahoma back in the 80s.
Functionally i just can't understand this...i didn't read the decision but does this mean we can go back to white only restaurants for example?
No and I think the court said specifically that this case doesn’t set any precedents.
Hey Bass, I know it's tongue-n-cheek...but, why did you feel this post was necessary? Because in my opinion it's classless and unnecessary.
Christ almighty can you please use the correct term . Stop being disrespectful with your passive aggression
Either is acceptable as they are used interchangeably by those in that minority community. Quoting from the article link:
Perhaps you should contact the Cincinnati.com/Cincinnati Enquirer website and inform them that both the reporter Cameron Knight, along with Jay Smith, one of the organizers of this event, are being disrespectful by using LGBT rather than LGBTQ.
I’m talking to you about your usage. Evidently you are a poser when it comes to the issues in the LGBTQ community
Seems silly to complain about a poster who didn't actually do what you are claiming.....the reporter of the linked article did. If squistion had altered the article you'd probably jump on your horse and tell us why we shouldnt trust anything he posts. Grow up please.
I’m addressing @squistion about a long standing issue he has with this . Circle the wagons even when he is dead wrong and knows it.
Technically he did do this.
He removed the Q. It is in the article. It is even in the hyperlink.squistion said:
That was a different article that Ruffrody was referencing. Again, the two terms are used interchangeably and are acceptable to most in that minority community (at least on social media).
It’s so strange that he would do that. He refuses to call these people by the term they want to be defined by
