The Olympics are an extreme waste of money

Disagree. They are a great international event.

---

That doesn't bring in near the money that goes out.

They Olympics dont really start until next week anyways. Thats when you can watch the mens hockey team punch another country right in the face.

The athletes see themselves as woke, or even as victims.

Yet tone deaf white privilege is on display for the world.

Except Obama didnt deport, he just chamged the reportimg from 'turned back at the border" to "deported"

Though the left loved whenn he put children in cages

She sounds like the Miss South Carolina chick from years ago. "I think that the Iraq, and sumsuch."

Add the olympics to the NFL, NBA and others that are dead to me now.

It brings up mixed emotions for me. Do I want him to wipe out spectacularly during qualifying runs or wait until he has a shot at a medal? I can't decide.

No, still want a high medal count for Team USA. And THEN his 15 minutes are up.

---

**** them! I hope they lose spectacularly.

She's the daughter of a Plano police officer. While I'm sure he's incredibly proud of her, this has to sting even if he won't admit it. Very disappointing. I guess she's "queer" so that ideology usually overtakes any other belief system someone has.

Here's the problem. We don't have enough people with bigger backbones to get on camera and dismiss the woke idiots. Until the overwhelming majority starts announcing themselves, this will never end. It wouldn't be difficult to dilute the few spineless liberals by announcing the love for competing for our country. Get dozens of athletes to do that and it'll drown out the noise.

It sure would be sad if Hess wipes out and tears his knees

Agree with others - she's a cosplaying moron.

Nothing this administration has done has impacted her "human rights" in any way. Times aren't hard. You are a moron liberal who is only happy when you can cosplay being a victim of a "conservative."

Who by the way will always be the first POTUS to support gay marriage before he was sworn into office.

Your POTUS you ignorant mouth breather.

Thread is dead, few will probably read this. But there's a curling mixed doubles team, both the man and woman are named Kory. There was a story on the news about them this morning, and he said what an honor it is to play for your city and your country.

He is from Duluth, Minnesota, so maybe not everyone from that state is brain dead.

Post what ever you want on this site and see how far free speech goes!

I have. And I have. Never said there weren't consequences for freedom of speech.

But the dude was asked a question and he answered. He has the freedom to answer as he sees fit. And I'm good with that, whether I like his answer or not.

This is a good take:

We don't want to hear that from him. Ungrateful privileged kid. This whole thing with ICE is so ridiculous, as who doesn't want criminals, gang members, etc who murder, rape, traffic, steal and maim, to be caught and off our streets. So go live in an oppressive country and ski for them

Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy says he’s the victim of a hate campaign after urinating ‘F**k ICE’ in the snow.

They should jump the reporters ass for asking them politically loaded questions and trying to distract them from focusing on althleyic competition representing the entire country. Just say you're disappointed about being asking a manipulative and politically charged question when this is a sporting event.

Of course, it takes more courage and dedication to rise to the top of your field and defend your beliefs for the world to see than it does to hide behind a keyboard and throw insults.

Of course, people who confuse the ability to insult with intelligence have trouble with this.

---

So enlightened, you are.

And by the way, it takes absolutely zero courage to say what he said. Its the flavor of the week to bash ICE right now. Hell, its been a thing for the last 3 Olympic cycles to bash the US. You and your liberal trash have flooded the airways and cornered the market on "being nice." Too bad all of your policies end in a flaming turd and are the antithesis of nice for those of us who end up footing the financial burden of these policies.

And? So what? You are allowed to disagree. You job is to ski, not talk.

---

He's allowed to talk, but the forum he has is due to his being on the Olympic team. He seems to think that gives him more credibility. It certainly gives him a microphone.

We need to at least take away the microphone. "You won't engage in any political rhetoric while representing the US. Period. If you can not abide by these rules, you can leave your Olympic team."

Simple and to the point.

These US Olympians represent the median voter right now. This concerned moderate supports their concerns.

Shouldn't this ignorant America-hating Demtard be more concerned that the once proud men of England have sold their women and children to third world animals? Including his "mum".

Oh no, I'm writing something very hateful, and shockingly, some are responding with hate. Ass clown.

I agree. He should "read the room" and understand that deportations are a touchy subject and decline to participate in a discussion that has ZERO to do with his sport and task at hand. realize that he can hurt his "brand" and possibly cost himself some endorsement money and good will from over 1/2 the country. But he chose to be a dumbass.

And as stated above, if ICE was so terrible, where was this outrage during the Clinton, Obama, and Biden administrations when there were more illegals deported?

That line really doesn't help your argument. What that quote says is that Clinton, Obama, and Biden were able to do it without the use of heavy handed tactics and weird talk of bravado with regards to rounding up illegals.

Obama deported my wife and kid (American citizen). We had just renewed and updated the status of her visa at the US consulate in Bogota. Returned to the states, CBP denied her entry (some paper work wasn't properly filed by a hard working beaurocrat). They were oh so nice and didn't even try to straighten out. Just confiscated her new visa and told me in a not so friendly manner that I would never see my family in this country again.

So F off, you have no F'g idea what you're talking about.

Ski-bum "Trustafarians" are the worst. The absolute worst. Grew up super privileged and insulated from EVERYTHING in Bend, Oregon. Zero clue how the world works. Just horrendous parenting.

The unhinged liberal freakazoids weren't out causing violence and mayhem in the streets and interfering with operations under Obama because they really don't care about the brown people they think are too stupid to get ID...they just hate Trump. If the same exact thing was happening under a D president right now, there would literally be ZERO news about it. In fact, CNN would probably be promoting it and running ICE puff pieces like they did under Obama. They literally did ICE ride-alongs and when it was uncovered that ICE accidentally nabbed the wrong guy, instead of his brother, they basically goaltended...talking about how hard of a job it was.

It is hilarious though that that is the argument from the left..."But, but, this is different because it's so violent out in the streets and there's so much chaos and havoc!".

Yeah, all thanks to your brainwashed brethren taking to the streets and interfering with legal operations. Utmost hypocrites.

UN but I agree with you.

He said in the video at the end that because of all this he's really doing this for his friends and family not his country. So **** him

Damn straight we're a country of immigrants. The missing word is LEGAL immigrants, not ILLEGALs. Do we need to beat this into your libtard's heads?

It won't help to beat it into their heads These people are either dumber than a box of rocks or they are intent on destroying the country.
