Female Dance Squad Ordered to Remove Shirts Because American Flag Colors ‘Offensive’ to Liberals
An all-female dance troupe in Seattle claims they were told to remove their American flag-themed shirts because they made leftists feel “triggered and unsafe.”
The Borderline Dance team claims they were told by the Rain Country Dance Association, a gay group that sponsors the Emerald City Hoedown in Seattle, that they were not welcome because of their red, white, and blue uniforms.
“Unfortunately, what our team was met with upon arrival was that our flag tops were offensive to some of the convention goers,” the dance group wrote on their Facebook page. “There was a small group that felt ‘triggered and unsafe.’”
Co-captain Lindsay Stamp told talk show host Jason Rantz that they were shocked by how they were treated.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
“At first we were told we would just be boo’d, yelled at and likely many of them would walk out,” the group’s Facebook post explained. “This did not deter us. But then we were given an ultimatum. Remove the flag tops and perform in either street clothes (which most didn’t bring as they traveled there in their uniforms) or they would supply us with ECH shirts from years past… Or, don’t perform at all, which effectively was asking us to leave.”
“We don’t speak for our team, we speak on behalf of them so the choice was theirs,” the post said. “As we knew would happen because there really was no choice in our minds, it was a unanimous NO.”
Stamp added that their troupe is not about politics, they “just came to dance.”
But she did add, “We’re a patriotic group. We support our military, our veterans, our first responders. We’re a group of patriots.”
“Our friends, West Coast Country Heat, who were also scheduled to dance for the convention that evening also did not perform as they too proudly don the colors of our country in the same spirit of patriotism that we do,” the post said. “Both of our teams stood in solidarity and put actions to words.”
Stamp also insisted that they fully understood that they were being thrown out of the event because of their shirts and there was no miscommunication.
