America has a serious issue with these ignorant, misguided, mental midgets 
U.S. Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry thinks she was 'set up' during national anthem
"I was pissed, to be honest"
LINK
American hammer thrower Gwen Berry felt forced to explain her actions during the national anthem on Saturday after images from the U.S. Olympic track and field trials showed her facing away from the flag while she was on the podium and the "Star Spangled Banner" played in the background. Berry, who is outspoken about racial injustice in the United States, said the moment felt like a setup.
"I was pissed, to be honest," she said.
"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."
She was receiving her bronze medal at the time that the song started. She then "fidgeted" in the direction of the stands, and then, towards the end of the song, she lifted a shirt that said "Activist Athlete" on it.
she's enjoying it on her Twitter

Something this frickstick doesn’t understand is that she represents the United States, not herself, as an Olympian. That’s the whole point of it. If she’s got a problem with us, she can go independently like some have in the past.

She should focus more on training and less on making political statements.

Are the Olympics being played now? Honestly don’t know. I will be sure not to tune in to watch low IQ marxist spew hate at the best country in the world.

How did she slip through the cracks? No way this racist country would allow a black person compete on its highest stage.

How was she 'set up' when she's the one who came to the podium with the propaganda activist t-shirt?
Professional whiner, is all she is.
Just what Booker T warned us about, over 100 years ago.

She's on the Colin Kaepernick grift. Not good enough to make a name for herself in her sport, so she chooses to go this route. Hell, she will probably have a podcast on Spotify after this with Jemele Hill.

If the IOC had any balls, they would remove her from the team and replace her with an alternate. After all, you go to the olympics to represent your country. There are plenty of events that are individualistic.

Congrats on your 3rd place finish. Do we really send a bronze winner i need trials to hang out at olympics? Not like they have a shot at winning anything

This is the Olympic qualifying stuff? This is how we should decide which clowns don't go to Japan based solely on their shitastic attitude.
