Pura Vida Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I can not give my real feelings on this. I do feel bad for the athletes who spent a life time working towards this goal. But why was this event in I ran anwyay with what is going on there. Did anybody else hear A Flock of Seagulls playing in their head when reading this…. (no offense to your post Lipton Bash, I get what you’re saying, just dealing with my 1980’s brain). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jericho Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Well if Iran banned the US then the other countries should also refuse to go and hold the meet at another venue in another country and if Iran gets mad and chooses not to go then that's on them.

Jesse James Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Your question got me thinkining... Many organizations, including professional sports leagues won't hold events in North Carolina because of the bathroom issue, but we will send people to an event in Iran? Thats because they are a bunch of hypocrites. That was easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellcats Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I would think we have a bit more control of these 50 states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh definitely, but we need them to to keep our consumer costs down. Like it or not, American labor is much more expensive. Even our President realizes that when he ran his businesses.

MJAlltheWay24 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 One thing for bsloute certain, the rich will stay rich. Zero problem with that. Lets quit trying to make the poor into the middle class by killing the middle class. And I realize what that says. My insurance premium has gone up 180% in 4 years without anything changing at my company or how many on my plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Rapp Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Given the precedent that Obama set by paying hundreds of millions of dollars to free the last group of Iranian hostages, this country cannot afford to send more potential hostages to Iran for any purpose. Travel to Iran should be officially off limits as long as the Iranian mullahs are running the country. It's funny how fearful liberals are that the religious fundamentalist minority in this country will somehow establish an American theocracy, but fret over the fact that Trump's foreign policy has resulted in a travel ban to a dangerous Islamic theocracy run by Muslim terrorists.

All Tell Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I still don't understand how any sports governing body will send people to Iran where they execute gays but boycott states because they say if you have a penis you should use a men's room.
