The Maryland Stadium Authority has increased security around the Ray Lewis statue outside M&T Bank Stadium after the former All-Pro linebacker joined Ravens players in kneeling during the national anthem, which spurred an on-line petition to remove the 3-year-old landmark.

The petition on change.org has received more than 50,000 signatures as of Thursday morning.

How about that. Baltimore did nothing to protect a 106 year old Washington Monument statue from damage (it was), but the Ray Lewis statue is like the Pieta.

More projection from the left. We don’t vandalize people we don’t like.

While attending a Super Bowl party in 2000, Ray Lewis, a then retired linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens, was accused of getting into a verbal and physical altercation with a couple of men . . . These two men were later found stabbed to death. Suspicion fell upon Lewis after a search of his limousine and the suit that he was wearing revealed the blood of these two men . . . To this day, the murder of the two men is an unsolved mystery . . .


In the minds of leftist thugs, it’s okay to have a statue honoring that man, but the national anthem is not okay.

You mean the Ray Lewis who was guilty of obstruction of justice in a murder case and probably should vhe been convicted of much more?
