It’s time for God to stop blessing America during the seventh-inning stretch.
Welcome to the July 4 holiday weekend — when once again, baseball fans will be assaulted by the saccharine-sweet non-anthem “God Bless America” at stadia all over this great land.
But no matter which home team you root, root, root for, “God Bless America” should be sent permanently to the bench.

"Kuntzman - No comment"No comment huh? Well, I've got one for this, KUNTzman. Move to another country if you don't like this one, you sleazy he/she gal man.
The song "God Bless America" does not offend everyone. A gross generalization, if I ever heard one. It only offends liberals who are offended by everything.
This is the creep who just wrote the article on what is was like to fire an AR-15. He found it "horrifying and menacing and very loud". Claims he was bruised from the recoil. He said the "noise was deafening and anxiety provoking". It made him "irritable and jittery for hours afterwards" To him "it felt like a bazooka" whatever that feels like, like he would know anyway.
These are the people who the terrorists will target first. They will be the easiest targets to pick out. They're the men with NO BALLS.

Ah, the Gersh speaks. From his fur-lined, bubble-wrapped safe space in his mother’s basement. Ask Mommy to warm up a bottle for you, Gersh. But not TOO warm. Don ‘t want you burning yourself.

This guy is saying that asking for a blessing is offensive to everyone?

Isn’t it funny how those who preach “tolerance” and “diversity” the most seem to always be offended by everything?

I personally like America, the Beautiful, better than God Bless America.
The latter sounds like a song of demand rather than a song of thanksgiving .

I think you are right...
This article and the AR-15 article must be spoofs to show his libtard buddies how easily we can be conned into thinking a puke like him even exists...

With that name, he’s either a Kraut, a Jew, or both. Either way, give him a one way ticket east on a slow boat.

Yes - but the Bruins have won the Cup more than the Flyers!

Isn’t he still suffering from PTSD from looking at an AR-15? Who cares what he’s wetting himself over now?

I've been to hundreds of baseball games in my life, and I've never heard "God Bless America" played.
The National Anthem, Take Me Out to the Ballgame, hell, Enter Sandman.
But not "God Bless America".
