Totally excessive punishment banning that Greek girl

Years of sacrifice and training and she gets kicked for a tweet when there is no clear cut policy in place for tweets anway.

Meanwhile, we allow athletes from regimes that murder and oppress their own people. If you asked any of the Saudi male athletes about their opinion on women, their responses would get them kicked out. So it's all okay as long as we don't say it out loud, correct?

The lady behaved like an ass and her politics stink. She can deal with the fallout without being kicked out. Or maybe they were just scared she might win. It's all just so silly

The Greeks kicked her out, presumably because they did not want her representing them. I'm willing to bet they wouldn't want a saudi male represent them either.

Given that the saudi males probably have the same views as their olympic comitee, I don't see it as likely that they will be kicked out for stating their opinion of women.

I know it was the greeks, and they did not have any clear cut tweet rules she violated.

They canned her because they thought her joke was offensive, boo hoo. Maybe they could have canned her earlier, maybe done a backgroudn check on her, instead of getting her all the way there and then doing it. Seems like a monumental waste of time, almost like they were wanting her to screw up so they could make an example of her. After her tweets it took exacly 5 seconds for people to start posting her associations and hostory online. If political beliefs are so important, why did they ever let her compete to begin with?

I would still console her if she needs a shoulder to cry on. The only belief that precludes me from sexing a woman is her belief that it is okay for her to have a front butt

PR, probably. Both commercial and national.

Olympic gold is even better PR though. If she had a reasonable shot at getting the gold and they shot her down over a twitter comment, then they're morons.

[Major Robert Dump]

She could have dedicated her Gold medal to all the immigrants after she won. Or she could have used it to reinforce her belief that crackers are the chosen ones.

Is Greece another one of those countries where they can put you in jail or close down your business because you say something offensive? I didn't think it was, I am genuinely asking

Business? What business, they're broke, man. That gold medal would have probably been smelted and sent straight to Germany.

As MRD and I are looked upon as jokers,(well him more than me), I couldn.t agree more with this sentiment.

It is worrying, isnt it?

[Strike For The South]

Why would you want her representing your country?

If I was in charge of the Greek team, I'd kick her of too.

Tasteless, unfunny, and has no place when you are about to be an ambassador for your country.

Why ruin your countries brand like that?

I agree, I decided to boycott the Olympics when I found out about the Zion logo.

No worries mate, I do oppose race-mixing, but simply watching won't make anyone pregnant. Besides I'm 10% Jewish so I personally prefer 90% Aryan 10% Jewish girls.

[Lemur]

Besides I'm 10% Jewish

That number bothers me. The normal proportion of parentage goes in divisions of 2, 4, 8, 16 and so on, since generations normally involve two parent multiples. To be 1/10th of something implies that ... hmmm. A grandparent who was 0.8 Jew? Or two great-grandparents who were, collectively, 1.6 Jews? Or 3.2 Jewish great-great grandparents?

[Hooahguy]

Besides I'm 10% Jewish.

Says the person who goes around saying stuff like "THE JEWISH CONSPIRACY WILL KILL US ALL!"

As someone who is actually 100% Jewish, stop fooling yourself.

Yeah I like chicks, they're so soft and smell good.
