Physically exceptional...mentally 'challenged'. Pure and simple. If the Olympics were here, she'd be booed off the stage. Assuming the Libs didn't manipulate the crowd.

Hopefully the bitch pops an Achilles or something and her career is extremely short lived. This is beyond disgusting.

Remember when Leftism , with lightning-quick speed, devalued and destroyed virtually every sporting event that you previously enjoyed?

I remember.

Probably pissed because she was beaten by two superior white women.

Police should make a national registry of people who openly hate them, that way when these people are victims of crimes and mistakenly call the police, the police never arrive.

Pepperidge Farms remembers also. Hammer throw, her protest maybe a gay thing as much as a black thing. She prob. thought this would shock and blow up mediawise. She just stopped my olympic watching cold.

Berry found it to be no matter of coincidence that she was front and center during the anthem. Unlike the Olympics, anthems aren't played to accompany medal ceremonies at the trials. But the hammer throwers received their awards just before the start of the evening session, which has been kicking off all week with a videotaped rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner.''

USA Track and Field spokeswoman Susan Hazzard said "the national anthem was scheduled to play at 5:20 p.m. today. We didn't wait until the athletes were on the podium for the hammer throw awards. The national anthem is played every day according to a previously published schedule.'' On Saturday, the music started at 5:25.


quote:

"They said they were going to play it before we walked out, then they played it when we were out there,'' said Berry. "But I don't really want to talk about the anthem because that's not important. The anthem doesn't speak for me. It never has.''

Her gestures drew virtually no reaction from the still-filling stands. And they were something far less than two summers ago, when Berry raised her fist on the podium after winning the Pan-Am Games.

No. A real activist would do the things that trigger you and get the most attention to her cause. Seems like it’s working well. If you’d just ignore them this would go away. They LIVE off of conservatives’ tears.

The IOC said political statements, which this is, will not be allowed at the games. We'll see how long that lasts.

Hey, look at me. I'm 31, came in 3rd, and barely made the team.

Seriously, leave her dumb arse home.

Perhaps she can find a black Country in say Africa to represent and escape all the systemic racism.
