Seattle: Dance Team Told to Remove Their American Flag Shirts “Or Leave” Because Some Competitors Felt “Triggered and Unsafe”
Link to article…
The Borderline Dance team, a regional women’s country line dance team, was invited to the Emerald City Hoedown in Seattle last weekend to perform by event organizers, the Rain Country Dance Association.
Rain Country Dance Association describes itself as creating “a friendly environment for LGBTQ people and friends to meet and dance in the Pacific Northwest. We support this Country Western dance community by providing opportunities to dance, learn, and perform. We cater to the LGBTQ community of Seattle and Greater Puget Sound but are open to all.”
However, The Borderline Dance team’s American flag-themed shirts resulted in them being “effectively kicked out” of the event because some attendees felt “triggered and unsafe.”

We have the same number of mentally ill as always, relatively speaking.
Putting them in charge of shite is what we've changed.

They would’ve won if they wore Ukrainian shirts.

I wouldnt even say its putting them in charge.
Its the fact that we now treat them as being special and somehow deserving of accolade instead of just bullying the shite out of them or ignoring them like we use to.

They should’ve found the closest trans team and asked them to remove their “_____”. When they remove theirs, we will remove ours.

Moderates and Progressives hate America. I, for one, am shocked by this cancellation.
This is what the left considers "winning".

Still on the first page.
Also, no wearing the flag as an article of clothing. It's disrespectful.

If it is a trans team, ask them to remove their penises.

so you CATER to them? why? SO you are treating them as if it is normal and treating "normal" people as outcasts?
If you want to cater to them just make the whole dumbass event a LGBTQ only event. Stop inviting straight people.

Any explanation as to what, specifically, was offensive about those shirts?

What's the chance a lgbtq dance team is sporting the rainbow and is not kicked out?
Would that be (d)ifferent?

They should have agreed, then came out and perform with jackets on a half way through their performance remove the jacket to reveal confederate flag shirts.
Just to piss them off.

Those shirts are not an exact depiction of the American flag. Those shirts are symbolic representation of the flag.
