Viral videos from yesterday’s game at Yankee stadium show two men unveiling a “Trump Won Save America” flag on the first-base side of the stadium which prompted a Bronx cheer of boos from many in the crowd.
Below you can view the moment from different angles:
But what happened next belongs to countries with communist regimes.
The security escorted out of Yankee Stadium Thursday – one of them apparently in cuffs.
The stadium is booing the people.
Below we have videos where security tackles and handcuffs the fans and confiscating the flag:
Photos from the incident:
“Sounded like the entire crowd was booing until security confiscated the banner, which then resulted in a large cheer,” tweeted Max Goodman, who covers the team for Sports Illustrated.
Lindsey Adler, reporter with The Athletic tweeted “Lots of booing here after some jabronis unfurled a ‘TRUMP WON’ banner off the second deck. (He didn’t).”
For a country with the greatest freedom on earth, we really felt low, even if you don’t support Trump you have to allow people to express their opinion, it’s why we have the first amendment after all!
The left can’t cancel Trump, in fact, the more they try, the bigger he becomes.
I think the person has a criminal and civil claim of false imprisonment against everyone involved with putting the person in hand cuffs. if the banner had not been about trump there would off been no handcuffs. in fact if it was BLM or some libral cause it would of been ignored or praised by the media.
Just like Nazism.
Just like Nazism.
no those other flags flown are considered unifying and loving gestures by the dimwits and others.
Screw New York. I hope they would feel completely uncomfortable where Trump and American flags are flown regularly. And then there is the guy down the road from me about a mile that flies a "F (insert American flag) K" Biden flag.
“There is no right of free speech in a private setting. “
There is a free speech right to say “No” or “Stop” to a sexual advance or a request for a contribution to the DNC.
In the first video, the guy taking the video and someone near him boo loudly, but in the second video, I only heard a couple of boos (sounded like the same two guys booing in the first video) in the crowd chatter.
THE AMERICANS BEING HELD IN CONFINEMENT DUE TO ACTIVITIES ON JANUARY 6, 2021 IN WASHINGTON DC ARE SUBJECTS OF POLITICAL PERSECUTION, AND THOSE PEOPLE IN PRISON ARE POLITICAL PRISONERS.
Legal isn't the question. Game attendees enter an agreement when they purchase a ticket. They can be escorted out if they fail to honor that agreement.
At the same time, the New York Yankees opened up a can of worms when they allowed and encouraged all the Black Lives MatterTM propaganda. This fan might have a lawyer take the Yankees organization to town.
NY=Communist country so no surprise.
“The stadium is booing the people.”
It’s NYC—they elected Comrade DeCommio. Of course they’re going to boo a banner of freedom.
He will be doxed and lose his job and nobody will hire him.
But since the Yankees control the stadium during the game, can’t they put up pretty much any banner they want? Heck, they could allow BLM to put up a big banner and charge them $5 for the “advertisement”. But when someone brings in their own banner, a line is crossed.
I make that comparison to January 6th because this has been happening for some time.
Whether they get imprisoned for this I don’t know, but the initial stages of what you see as they are assaulted by the security sure looks like the things you see happen to dissidents in tyrannical regimes.
After that, I don’t know. I suppose once the government has implemented social credit scores, this kind of thing would result in a reduction in your score with all things that go along with that, extra scrutiny in airports, denial of certain jobs, etc.
In a private setting, the property owner has the right to determine what can and can't be done.
I wonder if they had done that, if people would have grasped the sarcasm?
What do you mean “like”?
Heh, good post...:)
I couldnt care less about baseball games because i hate sports.
However, even though i agree trump won, i think a baseball stadium is no place for political banners during a game. People go there to watch and enjoy a baseball game. Not look at political banners and be reminded of all the political issues and partisanship that is occuring outside the stadium. (”Shut up and sing”)
First amendment issue doesnt apply here since they were on private property.
Good on security for removing the banner and the people who unfurled it.
Thank you for the correction.
