Olympics bans ‘Black Lives Matter’ apparel, could punish athletes for social protests

IOC bans ‘Black Lives Matter’ gear​

The International Olympic Committee got very granular with what is not allowed. It said specifically that the slogan “Black Lives Matter” will be banned from athlete apparel at the Summer Olympics.

It’s part of the IOC’s long-standing ban on “demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda” on the playing field, the medal stand or during the Games’ official ceremonies.

More generic words like “peace,” “respect,” “solidarity,” “inclusion” and “equality” will be allowed on T-shirts.

So far, the IOC has not said what types of punishment athletes could face for violating these rules. It only said it would treat each violation on a case-by-case basis.

Good. There's no room for our sham shit-for-giggles domestic vomit to be spotlighted on an international sports stage!!
 
Xiden and Harris won't boycott the games of China's human rights abuses....but this might be the reason why
Which Olympics are we talking about?
Well there are two....the summer and winter...the winter one is in China. I don't expect Xiden and Harris to boycott the games, even with the massive human rights abuses there...but wouldn't be surprised if they boycott Japan over this.

Sorry I wasn't clear

As it should be. Keep your BULLSHIT out of sports.

How many of you expect a political statement from your dentist right before he begins working on your teeth?

EXACTLY


STFU and do what you are there to do.

(shrugs) Racism= disagreeing with ANYTHING you folks think you want.
 
Well clearly they are all white supremacists, and no doubt they attend KKK-type meetings every night in their own home countries, as they plan the extermination of the black race worldwide.
