�In regards to my statement during my goal celebration, it�s a shame it�s seen as a political one,� Bedoya, Online Cigarettes Store USA who represented the U.S. men�s national team at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, wrote on Instagram on Monday, shortly after being named the MLS Player of the Week. �For me, my comments were simply humane. Sharing a sentiment that I consider most Americans can agree on. As in, we need to act like the UNITED States of America and come together to work on solutions to put an end to the gross rate of gun violence in our great country.�
Bedoya was lauded on social media and around the league. Union coach Jim Curtin expressed his full support for his captain after the match. Later, the club issued a statement saying the same thing. Several opponents also backed the popular veteran, including former U.S. teammate Brad Guzan of Atlanta United, who spoke of the sense that�s set in recently that these incidents can happen anywhere.
Fining or suspending Bedoya for expressing that sentiment would�ve been a terrible look for MLS. But then the league Newport Pleasurehas struggled to balance allowing free speech and keeping hateful signs, slogans or groups out of its stadiums. It drew public criticism earlier this year for not quickly and forcefully condemning known members of a violent neo-fascist organization that had been menacing fellow supporters at New York City FC games, and again for preventing Seattle Sounders fans from displaying the logo of a anti-Nazi paramilitary organization formed in Germany before World War II.
Bedoya has spoken out about gun violence before, including on social media before Sunday�s game after the two mass Newport box 100s cigarettes shootings that came less than 24 hours apart. The 32-year-old New Jersey native grew up in suburban Miami a short drive from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, where 17 students and staff members were gunned down by an unhinged former classmate early last year.It was the last morning of the workweek, and Scott Bremner, a popular talk-radio host here, found himself � again � in the role of accidental referee on the issue of race.
And again, the discussion was inspired by racial provocations from President Donald Trump. For one caller, critics of Trump had things upside-down.
"It has nothing to do with race, and those who suggest that it does, they are the real racists," the caller said. "We're getting angry again, and I'm telling you we're going to step up again and vote for Trump because we are not racist, Trump is not a racist and you guys are fomenting this stuff."
