1. my initial reaction to kelly's disqualification is that it is rediculous for her to be disqualified for something as simple as a hood.
2.my argument regarding the assertion that her disqualification is religous discrimination would be that they disqualified her because she had a hood on that is common for people to wear in the muslim faith and that if they were offered options to cover up the hood with a shirt before the race why wouldn't they do it. yes the disqualification of athletes for non- religous reasons affects my response because there were other kids on other teams that were also disqualified for uniform violations.
3. if i were to write an argumentative essay on this then i would have to research this event, the rules for the actual race, and other stuff.
4. rogers effectively defends himselfand his stance on the issue however it doesn't seem like his argument is very strong.
5. some solutions for implementing track rules are people just relaxing and not worrying over what's on the uniform of the kids running and just let them run their race.
6.no it wouldn't change my answer because if someone can't distinguish between to different people on different teams then they shouldn't be judging the finish line in the first place.
