@TS_Jenkins You as well. I served to protect your views no matter how I feel.
English

@LazyC31 I’ll conclude with this. Although our politics, service and patriotism look very different, I want you to know how much I appreciate you. Even though we’re not going to agree, compared to a lot of people who just talk, I admire our vets for walking their talk. Happy 4th! 🇺🇸
English

@TS_Jenkins Also, maybe now that Bosnia lost you can support your 2nd rated country that you live in.
English

@LazyC31 Really, our loyalty is tied up in a FIFA football match? It’s not tied to deeds and services done?
I am deeply proud to be American but I can also celebrate the overwhelming odds of a friend and ally competing in the World Cup.

@TS_Jenkins I don’t understand your point Tim. Either you are for your country 🇺🇸 or you are against it. Has nothing to do with weather I appreciate what we have done to help Bosnia in the past. You can still go back Tim. That’s not saying you’re a bad person, just shows your real loyalty.

“The players are going home. Bosnia’s nationalist leaders remain exactly where they have always been. They deserve a political red card. Increasingly, so do those in democratic capitals who continue to indulge them.” A brilliant riposte by @arminkahelic. politicshome.com/opinion/articl…

@WoahJimJimbo Poor, Tommy. Can only respond with naming calling because he’s so triggered.
English

@TS_Jenkins Yes you have the right to be retarded, god bless America, and fuck you. Fake ass poser. Deep down you will know that any victory doesn’t belong to you
English

@TS_Jenkins Awww poor Timmy. Made you my bitch already. Tough being incapable of springing the trap you tried to lay? Moron.

@MartinoPooch @MilanZak6 I didn’t just visit for a while. I spent years of my life working on peacebuilding and community cohesion — working with community leaders, footballers, and so many to put aside their differences and come together. I am so proud of Bosnia for truly uniting as one during this WC.

The replies are pretty pathetic here. When USMNT get to gatekeeping fandom like this it gets so embarrassing. It's ok if people choose to do this, they aren't against USMNT. Just proud of their heritage

Today we had to make an impossible choice — cheering for Team USA or Team Bosnia in the #WorldCup. After long discussions with my son, we agreed. While the USA is now our home, we left our hearts in #Bosnia… So tonight we cheer for the Dragons! Hajde Bosna! 🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦
English

@TS_Jenkins Well aware, never said you weren't. What i said was clear, if you want to be so patriotic and root for the country that has your heart, feel free to move to the mother land. I didn't say back to the mother land. I know you're an attention whore and you'd get baited into this.
English

@WoahJimJimbo Ohhh but I will! While cheering for the US we will also cheer for England and Argentina because we love soccer!
As an American and Illinoisan, I am so proud and grateful for the diversity that makes this country so great. Especially my First Amendment Right 😉
English

@TS_Jenkins I don’t think you’re the proud Illinoisan that you claim to be. You’re not allowed to cheer for the USA the rest of the tournament, really you’ve made your choice forever. Enjoy it the odd tournament you’ll qualify for every once in a while with Bosnia
English

@dgray8679 Hi Doug! Sorry to burst your bubble but I’m American. 🇺🇸
English

@JoyfulWarrior91 I wasn’t imported 😆 My ancestry in the US goes back generations. The people of BiH welcomed me in their country, taught me to love football, etc.
English

@TS_Jenkins Yup, America is importing tribalism. The same suff that ruined many countries and why you had to leave Bosnia. There was a 3rd option to root for but you would never root for Herzegovina lol. Everyone knows this and why immigration has its pros and cons.
English

@TS_Jenkins I really dont know why people care what national team some loser supports. He even injected a fake story of a discussion with his son that never happened.
English

@LazyC31 Bryan, as a veteran I would imagine you’d appreciate the decades of humanitarian & peacebuilding work we have done in the Bosnia — where I worked closely with both US Mil/civ partners. Bosnia is where we learned to love football/soccer and even know some players.
English

@NorthernInTheA Bro, I’m American. I just happened to spend several years of my life working on peacebuilding in Bosnia where my son and I really got into football/soccer — and we personally know some players. No need to be so triggered.
English

@TS_Jenkins Feel free to move back. Represent the country that you believe in. Which is clearly USA, since you moved here on purpose.
English

@TS_Jenkins @ICEgov Yea dog, your estrogen levels must be off the charts. Please leave our country.

English

@TS_Jenkins "Self-conscious"? lol Attempt to gaslight me? FAILED.🤪😏🤮
Enough with your nonsense. Bye.

@Feli39587527 I’m sorry that you feel so self conscious about being American. You’re welcome cheer, worship, or participate in civic or sports life however you wish. It’s what’s great about being American. Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸
English

@TS_Jenkins Overwhelming +? Where? Although my country of origin is not the US, I recognize the benefits & my duty as a citizen. I would not disrespect it by publicly saying my heart is not with this country. But then, that's just me. You do you.🤷
English

@Feli39587527 My patriotism is not defined by a sports team. I live it by the years of service on behalf of the American people and dedication to giving back. Cheering for a team that I have a strong emotional connection with is no more unpatriotic than the millions that cheered for Phelps.
