@Neuromechanic@OriginalClady No one cares if they are gay or not. If they can play; they can play. The barrier will never be broken if there is no courage. Jackie wasn’t secretly black. He was black. Barrier broken. Don’t require others to play along with your games. Come out or don’t. No one cares.
If you don't want to answer my question, that's fine. I'm not interested in shaming anyone. Are there actual barriers for LGBT+ ballplayers like the barrier that Jackie Robinson faced?
Side note: I want these teams to do away with all themed nights at the ballpark. No faith night, no pride night. None of it.
Ok. I’m not a hater and don’t want to argue these points. It feels like Michael Scott crying hate crime because he hated it. Pulse was Islamic terrorism and prosecutors had no evidence the shooter even knew it was a gay club. I wish you well. Wear the hat, write a verse on the hat. Just stop crying wolf. Genuine people are sympathetic to those targeted and hurt. When everything is a hate crime, nothing is.
@stopthistrain28@OriginalClady I’m well aware of the Milk/Moscone murders. A political assassination. He wasn’t murdered because he was gay. He was murdered by a jealous disgruntled colleague. Was Moscone gay because the same guy killed him on the same day.
@scottostler Check out this fella! He’s so much smarter than the dumb jocks. Christians believe that the Bible explicitly describes same-sex sexual acts as sinful and contrary to God’s created order for human sexuality. It’s rebellion against the divine design that male + female = life.
Pride is literally the definition of sin. Christians are called to repent of their sin and flee from it. Representing sin for a few hours is spitting in Gods face. The bible also talks about those far from god. To them (you) the Christian world view is foolishness. Thats ok. We pray for your salvation. One day the scales will come off of your eyes.
@PavlovicNBCS More stats when it doesn’t matter. Hard to remember a collection of players so un-clutch with big time stats. They traded the only clutch player they had.
