Just enjoying her victory.

But let's fine her 25,000 dollars just so nobody's feelings are hurt.

All in good fun, she was in good spirits and won another gold for her country.

I'm a big supporter of the crip walk.

It associated with the West Coast gang, the Crips, in the United States. Doing that dance is like flashing a gang sign. I think the criticism comes from glorifying or giving a national stage to a violent gangs in the United States.

Doing the crip walk and throwing down sets as you dance, to stomp on them.. is like flashing a gang sign.

White people crip walk in Orange County.

Crip walking is not like flashing a gang sign anymore. Completely mainstream. You see it in dance movies all the time, it's a pretty common move in the clubs too.

I think it was bad taste considering she's representing her country and she chose to do it by....doing a stupid gang dance.

Even though it's all in good fun, gang culture annoys me so that probably affects how I feel about this.

On the other hand, if she threw some gang signs I'm not sure if I'd feel as annoyed, so I'm just a bundle of hypocrisy right now.

Whatever.

I can assure you that it's not just a gang thing...

It's also known as c-walking, which takes the gang connotation out of the dance.

My vote: harmless
