“No Shades of Gray”: U.S. Olympian Calls Out ICE Terror in Minnesota

“What’s happening in Minnesota is bad,” Ruohonen saidciting the Bill of Rights and his 28 years of experience as a lawyer. “There are no shades of gray. It’s clear.”

“I really love what’s happening there now, with people coming out, showing love and compassion and integrity and respect to others that they don’t know, and helping them. And we love Minnesota for that,” he continued. “I want to make it clear: We are here, we love our country. We play for America, we play for Team USA, and we play for each other, and we play for our family and friends who have sacrificed so much to get here today.”

“What the Olympics means is excellence, respect, friendship. And I think we are all an example of that,” Ruohonen added. “And we play for the people of Minnesota and across the country who share those same values, compassion, love and respect.”
