At last year’s Rio Olympics, America fielded its first hijab-wearing Muslim athlete. The fencer, Ibtihaj Muhammad, gained prominence for her religion but stayed visible through a series of anti-American statements. Muhammad may have represented the United States on the world’s biggest stage, but don’t confuse that for a sense of patriotism.
In an interview with The Daily Beast, Muhammad once complained about living in the United States. According to the athlete, she feels ”unsafe” in the US and blames racism for her sense of fear while walking through New York City. When asked about Donald Trump, she said ”I don’t know who that is.”
Despite this, Mohammed was nearly chosen to carry the American flag during the Rio Olympics’ opening ceremonies. In a vote among her peers, she placed second to Michael Phelps. CNN published a piece that claimed Phelps didn’t deserve to carry the flag because, in so many words, he’s a ‘tall, successful, rich, white guy’
It’s unclear whether her fellow athletes were aware of Mohammed’s penchant for anti-American rants when they made their choice.

Yet islam is practiced and has been. And wasnt that overturned in the 70s or something?? Only religion i see trying hard to impose onto others and control my gov ischristians to be honest. Many xtian sects treat women as nothinh but baby bearing property. And cover their women. Ive been around many muslim men. Im from NYC. Not the backwoods… many many Muslims. Very nice people. If i dont go around treating others religious folk like terrorists being all religions have them, i wont do it to innocent Muslins whow wwre born and raised here
Howold was this “virgin” mary? I have 4 kids. Virgin birth isn’t happening. Or talking snakes etc. All religion is silly. And it creates psychos
Nikki Morris “Constitution [or] not” gonna have to stop you right there, kiddo. You don’t get to just ignore the Constitution when you don’t like it. You don’t get to treat people differently because you don’t like their beliefs, or refuse them their fundamental rights.
I’d say you should be ashamed of what you’re advocating, but that would take a level of intelligence and introspection I don’t believe you’re capable of.
Lol you blow up clinics. Shoot up churches. Kill your kids for vountless reasons. Commit genocide. You do plenty. When i leave work ill happily cite Felix Rivera.
