I’m sure the ACLU.will be all over this.

Abolish the Department of Just Us.
Man Where the fugawi anymore.
Sue them for discrimination. Its illegal to single one group of people out and prevent them from attending. Stop the Hate!
We can make an exception for Redskins fans. I’m fine with discriminating against them (and Eagles fans). They’re mostly felons anyway.
