It's an opinion forum, if you didn't catch that the first 1000 times.
I didn't tell anyone to mind their own business. I said that it's unreasonable to get upset over someone possibly ruining their own chances for endorsements.

It ain't necessary for you to come at me in order to curry favor and respect from the people that are roasting you about the stance you're taking in the thread.

YEA....i see right through it.

It's a shame they are incapable of celebrating the medal this guy brought to the US. It's a tight race against China, and every medal counts.
insinuating that some of the posters on this thread be potential mass murderers is just wrong. Stick that medal where the sun dont shine! Some people would sell their mamas for a buck

He earned the right to fly the flag of a country he wasn't even representing in the Olympics? WTH?

The xenophobia is out of control.
A better question is just "whose zenophobia" are you refering to?

I wonder how South Koreans would react if their athlete who may have escaped North Korea to South Korea were to wave both flags while representing South Korea in the games.

I wonder how Mexicans whould react if their athlete orginally came from the U.S.A but represented Mexico in the games were to wave both flags.

I wonder how Iraqis would react if their athlete was a expat from Iran and waved both flags while representing Iraq in the games or better yet a Jew that migrated to Iraq or Iran and he waved the Israeli flag along with the Iraqi or Iranian flag.

I wonder how the English would react if their person also waved a Irish flag or a Australian flag.

I wonder how Canadians would react if their person originated from the U.S.A and waved both flags while representing Canada in the games.

I doubt there would be tolerence shown.

No but he should be stripped and shunned. There is a time and place for everything, what he did was disrespect.
