Look if you yourself want gay pride celebrations, that lifestyle and that’s who makes you happy have at it and I wish you a happy life. But this compulsion from the gay mafia to make you accept their values by forcing it upon you is just angering people and revolts against it are beginning.

 
Lol, whats wrong with wearing a rainbow colored shirt for one game?
 
Shut up and play.

If the Right's so damned insistent that athletes not express anything of note whilst in uniform, we should expect the same in turn when their side complains. If they don't like it, they can all go walk.

I’m not gay for one and I might support who individual want to be with but I don’t support the mafia individuals that push that flag on others like a radicalized Muslim terrorists.

It’s not remotely the same, all they want to do is the very job they were hired for not become political billboard.

Your rules; isn't that what your side says whenever an athlete protests?

Well its the same principle; you don't want to wear the rainbow colors, get off the damn team. There's plenty of rugby players willing to put the uniform on so if they want to raise this ruckus, they can walk.

The athletes simply want to play for the very job they are hired for not become someone else’s political agenda. So……..
 
Showing support for another group of people doesn't make you one of them.

No it doesn’t, but I don’t support the agenda and tactics within that organization (doesn’t mean I’m against who you should love) and I suspect they didn’t either. Regardless you are there to play sports, keep it about sports even if you support trump or want woke agendas.

Then it should work both ways; don't ask us to shut up on the sports pitch if your side won't.

No! You were hired to play a game not become a political billboard or spit out your politics as a player. Unless these things are specifically stated in a contract.

Yeah, no; you don't lose your rights in the workplace. Doesn't mean you can't fired but you don't lose your rights under the law.

You also don't get to pick and choose when to show up and when not to either.

Losing your rights??? Statement doesn’t even make sense? Losing what rights? Doing a political protest during a time you were hired to do a job and represent the company you work for is not losing any right.

Yes, yes you do if they are not following the contract you signed.

Yes it is. You may pay for it by losing your job but you do not lose them.

No, no it’s not, you freely signed the contract saying this is how you will behave while under our employment on the field. No rights lost unless the democrats make us China and then you are forced to play a sport.

How the hell does China get roped into this conversation?
