No Respect: US Athlete Raven Saunders Risks Losing Medal After Flaunting Olympic Rules with Her Political Protest at Medal Ceremony

Saunders said afterwards that the “X gesture” represented “the intersection where all oppressed people meet.” She’s a victim.

She now risks losing a medal. What we do know is that if this is allowed we will now have to endure years of woke athletes parading on the medals stand.
Another institution destroyed by the left.

Excellent to think that athlete is protesting on behalf of the people of Tibet, and the Moslem minorities in China, the white minority in Zimbabwe, the Jews in the Middle East, the Christians in the Middle East, the Nigerians in South Africa, the Catholics in Ulster and the Gaelic speaking people in Scotland, and all the rest. Good for an American, with all the privileges of that great nation, and the privileges she has undoubtedly had to obtain her medal, thinks of people less well off than Americans.
