Candace Owens OPENS SURVEY TO BAN Brittney Griner: ‘NO ONE WANTS TO WATCH A PLAYER WITHOUT PATRIOTISM’

Candace Owens PROPOSED TO BANN Brittney Griner: ‘I would rather have a player who represents America who loves America than a medal.’

In a recent and highly publicized debate, conservative commentator Candace Owens has proposed a controversial stance regarding WNBA star Brittney Griner. Owens suggested that Griner should be banned from representing the United States in international competitions. Her argument centers on the idea that athletes should not only excel in their sport but also embody patriotic values and respect for the country they represent.

Owens’ critique specifically targets Griner’s outspoken activism, which has often included criticism of American policies and social issues. Owens argued that it is more important to have athletes who “love America” than to focus solely on winning medals. She expressed a preference for players who might not be as talented but are more aligned with her vision of patriotism, stating, “It is not about winning or losing, it is about representing the country and the honor of the country”​.

The debate gained traction when other public figures and commentators weighed in. Kid Rock, known for his vocal conservative views, echoed Owens’ sentiments, asserting that Griner’s public positions make her unfit to represent the United States. He claimed, “If you don’t respect America, you don’t deserve to represent this place,” directly challenging Griner’s right to
participate in international sports events​.

Griner, who has been an advocate for social justice and equality, responded to these critiques by emphasizing the importance of using her platform to speak out on important issues. She argued that her activism is a form of patriotism, aimed at improving the country she represents. Griner’s supporters have rallied behind her, defending her right to express her views and highlighting the broader role of athletes as voices for change​​.

The controversy also touches on broader issues within sports and society, such as the role of athletes in political discourse and the intersection of sports and national identity. Owens and her supporters believe that athletes should avoid political statements and instead focus on unifying the country through their representation. In contrast, Griner and her supporters argue that athletes have a responsibility to use their visibility to address social issues and advocate for progress.

This debate reflects a wider cultural clash in the United States, where discussions about patriotism, free speech, and social activism often collide. The question of whether athletes should be apolitical representatives of their country or active participants in social and political movements remains a contentious issue.

Ultimately, Owens’ proposal to ban Griner from international competition has sparked significant discussion about the values that athletes should embody. It has also raised questions about how these values are defined and who gets to enforce them. As the conversation continues, it highlights the ongoing tensions in American society over the role of sports in political and social life
