Discrimination Questions Have Surfaced Why One Of The Best Soccer Players In The U.S. Wasn’t At The World Soccer Match

"Jaelene Hinkle, a professional women's soccer player shown here in a 2018 CBN interview, famously refused to wear rainbox-colored jerseys in honor of LGBT Pride Month in a 2017 friendly match. Many observers believe Ms. Hinkle's faith-informed decision, considered by detractors to have been homophobic, was a factor in her not making the roster for the 2019 U.S. Women's National Team.

Jaelene Hinkle, a 26-year-old star for the North Carolina Courage professional team, has been called the top left defender in the U.S. game, but she wasn’t selected for the national team — a decision that may have had more to do with politics than prowess. In 2017, Hinkle turned down a call-up from the national team for a pair of international friendlies after learning that the players would wear rainbow-themed jerseys in honor of Gay Pride Month. She said later that the uniform conflicted with her Christian faith. 'I just felt so convicted in my spirit that it wasn’t my job to wear this jersey,' she told 'The 700 Club' in a May 2018 interview. 'I gave myself three days to just seek and pray and determine what [God] was asking me to do in this situation.' Hinkle has not played for the national team since. After she was left off the World Cup roster, coach Jill Ellis told reporters that the decision was 'solely based on soccer,' an explanation greeted with widespread skepticism."

"The Truth Behind America’s Most Famous Gay-Hate Murder." - Guardian

"Jimenez had no intention of causing such controversy. He’s an award-winning writer and TV producer, and visited Laramie shortly after the murder to gather material for a screenplay about the case. When he started he was convinced that Matthew died at the hands of homophobes, but he soon discovered that Matthew’s tragedy began long before the night he was killed.

Jimenez found that Matthew was addicted to and dealing crystal meth and had dabbled in heroin. He also took significant sexual risks and was being pimped alongside Aaron McKinney, one of his killers, with whom he’d had occasional sexual encounters. He was HIV positive at the time of his death.

'This does not make the perfect poster boy for the gay-rights movement,' says Jimenez. 'Which is a big part of the reason my book has been so trashed.'

Matthew’s drug abuse, and the fact that he knew one of his killers prior to the attack, was never explored in court. Neither was the rumour that the killers knew that he had access to a shipment of crystal meth with a street value of $10,000 which they wanted to steal."
