Apparently, standing up for the national anthem and supporting the president of the United States is "backhanded racism."

That is the case, at least, in the minds of several professional softball players.

On June 22, the players of Scrap Yard Fast Pitch, a professional softball team based out of Conroe, Texas, decided to quit the team because their general manager had published a pro-Trump, pro-national anthem tweet.

Spoiled entitled brats. They have NO clue what oppressive living is like. Perhaps the Zimbabwe international softball club will pick them up. Like the ad council promo running with JJ Watts. 'To love America is to love all Americans'. Maybe that ad should be pulled. Clearly there are a lot of folks who don't.

Yes, by, hope that works out for you just fine. Professional baseball..... hum, never heard of it anyway, so I’m sure they can make more like other Democrats and draw unemployment.... hopefully it is declined since they quit the team.

Professional softball played by racist, sexist, anti-Christian atheists anti-males?

Professional Softball? I didn’t even know there was such a thing. Judging by the twitter photo, they can’t stand to lose too much of that crowd.

Women professional softball players in Conroe, Texas. This is big-time stuff here. I wonder what the professional mumbley-peg players think about this.

I hope these “professional” athletes lose their livelihoods! They bite the hand that feeds them! These Black activist athletes make more in one season than most Crackers will make in our entire lives!

Black athletes really need to ask themselves: “who really has the privilege in American Society?” It ain’t this white guy!

It may come back, alright, but they will be the ones saying it, if this nonsense doesn't stop soon.

Here’s a handy guide for white folks in these interesting times.

Did you just do something?
If you answered “Yes”, go to 1.
If you answered “No”, go to 2.

1. What you did was racist.
2. You are thinking racist thoughts.

All those Title 9 graduates have to do something to validate their worthless degrees.
