They don't send any official delegates to the Olympics but they send openly 'gay' athletes instead. Oh come on. really? This is incredibly childish. At one time the Olympics were boycotted or protested against because of serious issues such as a host nation invading another nation. Nowadays, the Olympic Games are tarnished because of political correctness. Obama's government is not just treacherous and incompetent, it is petty, stupid and infantile. Just as a matter of interest, the Football World Cup is due to be hosted in Qatar in 2020. Do you think there will be any protests against Qatar's laws? You know, the laws that treat women like cattle, prevent freedom of speech and..... shock horror, persecute homosexuals far worse than Russia does! Somehow, I doubt it, because the PC brigade don't have a quarrel with Islam do they? No, they only want to champion homosexual rights in Christian nations because they despise Christianity. This is how their double standards operate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should not. The Olympics, after all, are about international athletic competition...not political grandstanding. Unfortunately in this instance, it was the Russians who chose to make a political statement against homosexuals....just as did Hitler against races other than whites in the '36 Olympics with his also crazy rhetoric against any athletes not of the "Master Race". Thank God the US did in 1936, as the US is doing now: sending athletes of ALL sexual orientations, skin colors, sexes, ethnic origins, creeds, political views, marital statuses, education levels....based on their TALENTS WITHOUT regard to their differences...and in spite of the narrow minded bigots who would rather 'win' by reducing the competition from groups they actually FEAR. For those who do not know history: Jesse Owens, an American BLACK runner, embarrassed Hitler at the '36 Olympics in Berlin by taking the lion's share of medals in running events.... ----------------- May the US and all other nations who plan to ignore Putin's ridiculous affront to homosexuals be made just as proud by their gay athletes who are simply there to COMPETE and make no other statement except that they have excelled in their sport and wish to be judged BEST in their athletic EVENT! -------------- I'm proud of Greg Louganis, US diving champ as well as Brain Boitano...medalist in figure skating...and any other former or current US Olympian regardless of their sexual orientation. Why? Because they are my fellow AMERICANS who brought glory to our nation through their sacrifice on and off the athletic field. ------------------------ I'm also proud that Billie Jean King, Janet Napolitano, Brian Boitano, and any other gay US citizen or Olympian will represent the US in Sochi. Why? Because they represent ME, as an AMERICAN! And show the world what IS BEST about this Country. Edited December 21, 2013 by homebild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not going there to compete. Billie-Jean King is too old anyway. They're going there to make a political point and meanwhile the government reps are not going. There's no political point to be made. Anybody would think that Russia is rounding up homosexuals and throwing them into death camps. Russia has made a few laws against teaching homosexuality to minors that's all, but the pathetic gay lobbyists can't handle that so they're protesting against it!

You and everyone else who has made negative comments about gays in this thread have missed the point! The Olympics is about ACHIEVEMENT. PERSONAL ATHLETIC ACHIEVEMENT. If a GAY athlete wins an event he wins the event because he or she was the best athlete in the event. That's the POINT that Mr Putin and Mr Hitler both MISSED! --------------- Athletics nor Olympics have NOTHING to do with anyone's sexual orientation... Yet that is PRECISELY what MR PUTIN and most contributors to the thread have ALLEGED and FEAR! PUTIN wants to BAR homosexuals from competing in the OLYMPICS because he is AFRAID of GAYS! What kind of WORLD LEADER is that!!!? That the US and all other nations (20 plus so far) have OBJECTED to PUTIN and RUSSIA'S IDIOCY is SHAME ON PUTIN AND RUSSIA! Not shame on the US! DUH!
