Then why even have the olympics? Let just let everyone run around with a UN flag.

The point of the olympics is to be a 'vitrine' of a country's achievement.

He had both flags and was representing the country that sent him and his heritage. Most people have bigger things to worry about than what some ethiopian lookin dude that won a gold medal for his country decides to carry around on his back.

You're Canadian, why do you even give a shit?

One can be proud of his heritage but he ought to have some decency and keep it to himself. If he is so proud to be mexican, let him go run under the mexican flag then.

Ultimately, I don't really care, it is your mess. But I was simply interested to see how you guys felt when the guy basically gave yall the finger on tv (after all, some of your tax dollars went to support him).

And the question in general is, is he even allowed to do that?

Its our mess? What fucking mess?

Look bro, I could give a shit if the guy wrapped himself in a snuggie with a swastika on it and taped a dildo to his fucking face. Its his medal, he earned it. We also don't use tax dollars to support our olympic athletes despite kicking the shit out of pretty much everyone else when it comes to medals as its almost all corporate and private sponsorships.

As long as it's not a Chinese flag, I don't give a shit - they're the only ones we're really competing against overall here. Good for him for winning - the medal counts for USA and not Mexico.

Abdel, why don't you go back to whining about women's soccer or whatever it is Canada is good at?

Yea well, the ref was clearly bought & paid by the US in that game.

Don't worry though, seeing at what pace you guys are following phony keynesian economics, soon enough you'll be as good as zimbabwe and no one (including me) will care, lol.

For a Canadian, you sure do post about America a lot. I'm willing to bet that you can't go 5 mins without mentioning USA. Do you secretly wish you were American? I dunno what your fellow Canadians would think aboot that.

I thought you 'had to care because the dollar is the reserve currency'. You should really just worry about things that concern you and stop trying to create nonexistent arguments about nonexistent issues.
