Won 6 Olympic metals but shunned by media.
Subject: Won 6 Olympic metals but shunned by media.
American Kim Rhode just became the 1st person in this year's Summer Olympics to win medals in SIX consecutive Olympics and the first woman EVER to do so in the history of Olympics!
You'd think the media would be all over this, right? Not so much. You see, she won those medals with a gun, doesn't wear a hijab and is an outspoken supporter of the 2nd Amendment so she doesn't fit the current politically correct agenda.
She is being shunned by the media! Please share to give Kim credit she deserves for representing America so well!
