Player gets booed for upholding personal convictions
#17





The only thing different were the rainbow numbers. It's her choice to decline working for an organization that encourages equality on the field. The jerseys were a partnership with the You Can Play organization whose mission statement is

Quote:You Can Play is dedicated to ensuring equality, respect and safety for all athletes, without regard to sexual orientation and/or gender identity.

You Can Play works to guarantee that athletes are given a fair opportunity to compete, judged by other athletes and fans alike, only by what they contribute to the sport or their team’s success.

You Can Play seeks to challenge the culture of locker rooms and spectator areas by focusing only on an athlete’s skills, work ethic and competitive spirit.

Not really the message some are suggesting, but everyone is entitled to their view of the world so long as they are not infringing on the rights of others.


When the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage, she posted an image that was the marriage equality symbol rearranged to be a cross and wrote a message about Jesus saving people and the world becoming corrupt, so Christians need to try to save people now instead of being upset about gay marriage. Her beliefs are consistent.
