US Women's team crowned world champion after 2-0 win over the Netherlands

She is certainly someone whose sudden prominence triggered you to the point of replying

People on the public stage can do that


In this instance she is displaying protest for a cause that is dear to her

It appears I was mistaken to believe that the right wing embraced first amendment rights

How so? Have my comments in ANY WAY had any effect upon her first amendment right? Or for the delicate snowflakes does the right to their freedom of speech include the right not to be criticized by others exercising their right? Yeah, thats what I suspected.
 
Agreed. There was a female poster, Tav? Tan? ...something like that, a Trump supporter, and she just came right out and said she's a racist. Her posts were the same as a lot of other pro Trump posts on this forum, but I had respect for her for at least having the balls to admit it, instead of pretending **** like the Birther Movement had nothing to do with race.


No pretending required. Where do you see the connection to race? Had his publisher instead announce that Obama was born in Poland, and he was white, the reaction would have been the same.
 
Criticized for-wait for it-exercising her first amendment rights

She is the captain of the women's soccer team. She has a right to an opinion just as much as trump does

And she DOESNT have immunity from criticism of those opinions. Nobody has denied her right to an opinion.
