  • The point he's making is its not excessive to point at the air. That's all this person did and they were punished under the communist rule of this organization.

  • [quote][quote]state scholastic rules that prohibit excessive celebrations, which “include raising one’s hands.”[/quote] Religious persecution my ass.[/quote]So you support these asinine rules that lead to religious persecution?

  • A. I never said I supported this rule. B. The rule did not result in religious persecution. I don't think you know what that term means.

  • He was banned after exhibiting his religious belief. That is plain and simple religious persecution.

  • No, it isn't. The rules deny individuals from celebrating their victory in any noticeable way. This team would have been disqualified had he put his fist in the air, had he jumped in happiness, had he high-fived somebody nearby, or done anything similar. None of those are religious gestures, but the punishment would have been the same. Religious persecution is the explicit denial of specific rights to people due to their religious affiliations. The rule takes effect independent of religious beliefs, so the accusation that it is persecuting the religious is totally and utterly false.

    Religion has nothing to do with it. His actions violated a simple (yet asinine) rule.

  • This. I think the rule is bizarrely strict, but religion is wholly irrelevant.
