New York Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed Friday the rule barring marijuana use during the Olympic races was an "instrument of racist and colonial policy." The congresswoman’s comments followed the announcement that U.S. champion Sha’Carri Richardson will not be running in the 100-meter race after she tested positive for THC, a chemical found in marijuana, at the Olympic trials – voiding her first-place results.

I feel very for her but this is not a new rule. AOC, please just be quiet - you really do show your racism by expecting everyone not to go by the same rules. Everyone is capable of following them.

If the rule was for BLACK athletes only then she might have something to complain about BUT it is the rule for everyone, BLACK or WHITE or whatever. Marijuana does not enhance your performance so I say go ahead and challenge the rule but for the next Olympics. It is on the books, she knew it was on the books and paid the price. It is a shame as she should be running but it is what it is. It is against the rules. You cross that line and you are out. AOC is nothing but hot air. And I am so tired of her.

I doubt if it was racist, but if that other track star can have as much testosterone in his blood, as he apparently has, and still compete, what's up with a little pot?

This is really sad, but rules are rules.
Sha’Carri Richardson was the shining super-star during the USA women's track and field Olympics qualification trials. She is movie star beautiful and her personality truly shines. During her 100 meter races the crowd was in love with her.
These races are on YouTube and are well worth watching.
She was world-wide favorite to win the gold metal in the 100 meter dash and on the 4 x 100 meter relay.
A few times in a person's life, decisions - when made - seem to be wholly insignificant, but turn out to be life-changing, some for better and others for worse.
Sha’Carri's decision regarding marijuana, resulting in her of testing positive for THC, may cost here many $millions of lost income, and in any case will probably trouble her mental tranquility throughout her entire life.

Every time she talks about racism someone needs to point out that the most famous Cortez in history was Hernan Cortez, who the left claims committed genocide against Native Americans. She needs to make reparations for the evil he committed before she talks on such subjects.

Hey AOC! Just shut up and stop making a fool of yourself. The rule applies to everyone regardless of their race. She chose to break the rules. Is AOC implying that minorities are to weak and stupid to not use banned substances? AOC sounds like the racist here.

Heress perfect solution! Since Gwen Berry, the US hating hammer thrower, claims to "love her people", and Carri Richardson is one of them; Berry should take Richardson 's place in suspension and sit out the hamer throw. She can let Richardson compete in the 100 meter race. Berry can make herself a martyr for her people.

Maybe she should stop being a pothead at least for the Games. The rules are the rules. We know these woketards think they don't apply and they can scream racism as a get out of jail free card, but it doesn't work many other places but the US.

An old friend of mine used the term, "dumber than a bag of hammers", and it fits this nitwit aoc to a fare thee well. Don't pay any attention to her and just move along with your life. The girl broke the rules, case closed. I'm sorry for her, she is the best but she screwed up.

It would seem the Olympics would have each participant sign a legal form that they have been informed and understand all the rules and regulations?

AOC the red lipped mule just made a racist judgement. The dumb down ditz just associated blacks as inherent pot heads they are forever tied to one another. How stupid is that to defend the pot smoker.

Because everyone knows that only black people smoke weed? Or that the drug-screening tests for athletes are only administered to black athletes? Exactly HOW, Miss Cortez, is the Olympic ban on pot "racist?" Please explain.

It is a World Anti-Doping Agency [WADA] standard.
So, ''systemic racism'' must be an international problem.
Considering that the standard is applied regardless of race, isn't AOC being racist assuming that blacks are more likely to violate the rule, because they are more prone to using illegal narcotics?
Evidently, she thinks that blacks lack impulse control and are incapable of complying with the same standards of behavior that is expected of everyone else.

Is she saying that Black athletes are pot heads and can't help it? To me this is blatant racism on her part or is she just speaking for herself.

AOC, everyday she proves she is nothing more than a wild bug eyed moron. To any deranged democrat the only rules that apply to anything are the rules they set. Of which, can change at any time to fit their sick narrative. Got it..

See my Black brothers and sisters who are leftist democrats. This is how leftist democrats who are politicians think of you. You can’t follow rules it has to be racism. Idiots like Sandy Cortez (I refuse to use her initials AOC) is pathetic. Sha’Carri Richardson chose to smoke a banned substance and in doing so her hopes and dreams of Olympic gold went up in smoke literally. Someone should tell Sandy that wasn’t racism it was stupidity.

Typical AOC race-baiting. The only thing that matters is that Sha’Carri Richardson knew the rules and chose to break them. Enough said.
