I'm glad the Greek Olympic Committee acted the right way on the matter.

Political Correctness is out of control, nothing racist in her comments

Terrible, terrible decision by the Greek Committee, this girl work years and years to get to where she is

People are too sensitive.

Unbelievable, this reminds me when Pacquiao's mom referred to Blacks as Negroes and they had to correct her.

Because what she said was not racist, if she doesn't see it as racist then it's OK to say it, problem is you can't be who you are any more, Olympics is about Competition, the best of the best, but they are making it like it's this one love one world BS.

If she said Greeks are superior to the West African people and therefore we will win, then that's racist, all she said was the mosquitos will get a home made meal.

With so many Africans in Greece … at least the West Nile mosquitos will eat homemade food!!!"

read the highlighted part and meditate on that.....and tell me that if she's trying to single out Africans cuz they migrated to Greece.

You don't get it (with all due respect), it's not racist, she's not saying anything about the superiority or inferiority of one group over another, she made a comment that left a bad taste in her mouth. The fact is, there is a growing population of Africans in Greece,however her comments are akin to someone saying something about Imelda Marco's shoes because your or someone you know is Filipino..."Oh there are a lot of Filipinos in California, enough to wear each pair of Imelda's shoes!"

That statement may have been insensitive, but that's something you often hear at stand-up comedy. She was clearly making a joke, but people are just too damn hypocrite and too damn sensitive. Wag of a finger would do. No need for expulsion.

Then she should've done it doing stand up comedy not in the grand scale of things....like the Olympics.
