I think it is an interesting comment. I think homosexual and bisexual athletes really don't help or hurt. I just look at them as what they are, athletes. Your sexual preference does noting when it comes to ability. The only thing I can think of is that more competition makes better athletes because they want to be the best and now say 30% of the athletes are out because Russians don't want homosexuals.

As for Obama's statement, it's hard to prove if they are weaker or stronger for doing that outside of the possibility of more athletes creating internal competition for the spots. Another somewhat misguided Obama quote.

Thank you for admitting to your bigotry straight on. There is progress! Congratulations on bringing science and its 'supposed' truths into your deck, too. Much more salient than the race card and long-dead tyrannical humanitarian association smears.

And yes I pity homosexuals and hope for them the best of luck. I must endure those who argue on their behalf.
Are you effing kidding me?! How delusional are you? Stalin would have sent people pushing for human rights straight to the gulags and Hitler would have sent them to concentration camps.

And I pity YOU. You are a nothing more than a bigot blinded by prejudice. So blinded that you are grasping frantically to any smart ass comment trying to defend yourself. Grow up and get help, you need it!

It's truly ironic that Russia has become a more moral society than America. We have no place preaching our perverted morals to them in the name of so-called "human rights". Their granting asylum to Snowden is eerily similar to our granting asylum to Solzinetsin when the Soviet union was the Evil Empire.

How much of that decline do you attribute directly to Mr. Putin, given that you seem to have had a good working relationship with his predecessor? Also will there be any additional punitive measures taken against Russia for granting asylum to Edward Snowden? Or is canceling the September summit really all you can do given the host of issues the U.S. needs Russian cooperation for? Thank you."

If you can't see how it is not surprising that Obama talked about the Olympics, given that question, then I would like to ask you to refrain from posting anymore anti-gay threads on this forum until someone specifically asks you for your thoughts on gay people. Thanks!

Where is "gay" in this question?

Is the quote and I can't seem to find what's wrong with it. It's simple math... if even 1% of your population is gay, and you exclude them from sports, you've now decreased your talent pool by 1%. You've very likely, in some sport, bumped a superior gay athlete for a less qualified straight athlete.
Is'nt that like saying that "if the blacks in America boycott the Olympics it would make the U.S team weaker"?
