Mike Rowe: Riley Gaines HATES Losing More Than She Loves Winning | The Way I Heard It

Ойын-сауық

The 12-time NCAA All-American, 5-time SEC Champion, and 2-time Olympic qualifier who went from being one of the fastest collegiate swimmers in the world to a controversial women's rights advocate talks about what it takes to train in a pool six hours per day, why she’s not going to be training to be an endodontist, and recounts the harrowing experience of being held captive on the campus of San Francisco State University. Her new book is Swimming Against the Current: Fighting For Common Sense in a World That’s Lost Its Mind.

    One of the most terrifying points about Riley's experience is that she had to attend a "reprogramming" therapy session. That ALONE is unbelievable. Thank you Mike Rowe and Riley Gaines for keeping this in the public eye!!!

    The fact the .highest level of women's sports is subjected to such s disgraceful show of college sports leadership cowards, that bowed to this is outrageous. There's a national gym that has sided with something just like this. They allowed men in the ladies locker room, and these men choosing to go into the ladies locker room, and they went to jail for being there. The college championship records should be stricken, and the women who placed in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th places should be moved up to the placed they really finished the races at. The officials responsible for this tragic situation should be removed from the positions they have, and replaced by someone who understands what's logical in situations like this. The fact that these women were threatened that if they spoke out about this, would be smothered under the powers of the boards thumb. That's animals reason they should be removed from their positions. Even have criminal charges filed against them all for all the wrongs they've done to these women. Totally against what they've done, and the full power of the law should fall upon them, and they should serve time at the roughest prisons for their cowardly way. Nothing against the one's who believes that they are the opposite sex than they were born to. It's sad that they have to deal with this, but when they force her as a hostage in San Francisco college auditorium threatening her is again wrong and they all should be taken to court with full charges brought against them for kidnapping her. That is a federal crime, and falls under the FBI's authority, and not in the local police departments authority. There again the chief of police in both cities should be removed from their positions and charges filed against them as well.

I find it to be really sad that these dangerous positions that Riley is put in and fighting so hard for boil down to be nothing more than common sense. The culture in America is in a weak place. Where basic truths are under attack, and I, for one, believe that there are demonic forces that we are up against! May God bless America with common sense! 🙏

The same man who gets his kit off in a changing room full of appalled women, strides across the pool deck in a woman’s swimsuit, tackle on full display. Happy to cheat his way to the finish, stand proud on the podium, accept the trophy with his man sized hands and smile for the cameras. This person is incapable of shame and embarrassment! Keep fighting, you’re an inspiration and we will stand with you to protect the next generation of girls!

He might give a lame apology but more likely he will project himself as the victim. We are already seeing those who are de-transitioning so the pathway is already created and he will avail himself of it. Welcome to the Twilight Zone.

    I'm not a competitive swimmer but l became an athlete in a different sport from the age of 7. I dedicated a lot of time trainining to the point where l got to rep trials, which is a step up from club where you represented the region where all other clubs you played against would vai for positions in a team that represent city/province. I understand how important training is. I was a football player, and l know exactly how much training and dedication goes into swim sports. Those hours are phenomenal compared to the hours l dedicated to what l always thought was a lot training for football. I'm 65 now, and l take my hat off to you, Riley, and l feel heartbreak for the athletes that were clearly unfairly and ruthlessly targeted by the NCAA and the LGBT and related community supporters. The degree of what l can only describe as emotional blackmail is absolutely and unequivocally abhorrent. God Bless you Riley Gaines.
