I guess where I was going with that is that I don't see why she should be punished for not doing anything illegal. It's not in the US Soccer Federations rules (that I know of), and not against the law.
There are players that sway back and fourth, and move around all the time. If this wasn't part of a movement then no one would really be talking about it.

This comes down to if you believe in the movement to change policing tactics. I don't see how representing her country on the pitch, and making a small gesture towards what she believes is in the best interest of her fellow countrymen can't be done at the same time.
