Inconsequential. 1st Amendment.
You don’t have to agree with what she does. You DO have to agree that she has the right. Same with Kaepernick’s ridiculous arse.
It’s been guaranteed to every citizen since we won independence.
It is my stance that Rapinoe and Kaep are both more American than those crying about them doing what they do, simply because of the fact that they are taking a public stand, while a bunch of yahoos like you guys in this thread pop off at the mouth and probably don’t even vote on local government resolutions, or even know who your representatives are.
Please, if you are offended by them doing their thing, simply say so. Just don’t make a fricking thread on the phony moral high horse you guys rode in here on.
Edited for spelling.

It's just fake outrage at this point. Pinoe has been doing this for over 3 years now and on stages much bigger than the one today. You know she's going to do and it just shows how mentally fragile some people are that they are still melting over it everytime she does it.

The U.S. Soccer Federation is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit, *not* the government.
The 1st Amendment doesn't guarantee any person the "right" to speak as a representative of a private, non-government entity. It just doesn't.
If a person works for Microsoft, Microsoft has a perfect right to fire an employee/contractor that is a loud and public proponent of Apple. There are no 1st Amendment protections violated there.
Also, if your viewpoint were accurate, then I could bring my handgun to work (or *anywhere* for that matter) anytime I wanted whether or not my employer wants me to or not because, gosh, 2nd Amendment!
