You need to work on your reading comprehension, metmom.

I replied to a guy who said this was a freedom of speech violation. (It was not.) Please show me where I posted anything other than that. As for the license, you can read it here. Note the part where it says that the license is revocable at the will of the licensor (the Yankees) with or without cause.

Because there was no First Amendment protection (private enterprise) and the ticket license agreement gave the Yankees the right to remove them I have no problem with it. Based on my view of the video, security only got rough when the people resisted.

By the way, conservatives are supposed to be supporters of private property rights. If you think people should have the right to do whatever they want in the context of a private enterprise, I wonder why the hell YOU are on Freerepublic!

You are upset because you happen to support the message on the sign. If it had instead been a sign in support of Biden and the same thing happened, I have no doubt you would be cheering the actions of the Yankees.

You’re wrong.

The problem I have with the incident was the way security handled it.

Let them take their banner and leave.

It’s understandable that they want to keep their property and if someone tried to take it from them they would resist.
