Fans Ejected From Miami Marlins Game After Hanging Proud Boys Flag (Barf Alert)
Miami New Times ^ | June 9th 2021 | JESSICA LIPSCOMB

You know that one family member who just won't shut up about politics, even when you're trying to do something nice, like go for an after-dinner walk or drive Grandma to the doctor?

Last night, a handful of attendees at the Miami Marlins game were that guy. While the rest of the fans presumably just showed up to enjoy a nice summer-evening game against the Colorado Rockies, five jackwads at LoanDepot Park decided it would be fun and interesting to unfurl two right-wing posters: one declaring "PROUD BOYS DID NOTHING WRONG, FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS 1/6/21" and the other insisting "TRUMP WON, TAKE BACK AMERICA."

A spokesperson for the Miami-Dade Police Department (MDPD), which had off-duty officers working security at the ballpark, tells New Times that five fans were ejected from the stadium. The matter was handled by Marlins personnel, and no one was arrested.

LoanDepot Park rules state that fans may not display banners larger than 3 feet by 5 feet and that all banners must be baseball-related. The regulations also explicitly say that signs may contain "NO statements regarding political affiliation, social and economic matters, or other statements that undermine civil liberties."

it wasn’t a raid, they were invited in by the Capitol police. Some likely antifa idiots went mental inside, but the vast majority were respectful and did nothing wrong

“ Racist banners will start to be unfurled to taint Trump supporters”

So tired of hearing how racist we are. At some point we may as well sack up and give them what they want. They won’t like it, but it seems to be what they want.

They sure look black.

Can’t have runaways from the democrat party getting away with supporting President Trump.

“And MLB has been full of social matter signs these days”

I think MLB’s recent political stances are due these teams owing the government a favor for the billions of dollars they received to build stadiums on the back of taxpayers. It seems that the only economic stimulus stadiums provide benefits the team and some of the commercial real estate close to the stadium. Overall, they’re a net loss for the taxpayer, and we’ll be paying interest on those bonds for decades to come.

On top of that, there are scumbag owners, in particular Bob Nutting of the Pittsburgh Pirates, that basically use the stadium as personal piggy bank. For whatever reason, the prick seems to get a lot of welfare from Pennsylvania ... not just for the Pirates, but also for his various ski resorts in the region.

Nutting makes no attempts to make the team competitive. When they somehow find a way to win, he makes no effort to spend money to get pieces they may need to make a serious run at anything.

What’s maddening is that the rate at which the bonds are paid down is linked to a tax on tickets sold. Nutting has zero motivation to see those bonds paid off ... for all he cares, taxpayers can be stuck with the bill for a century seeing that people pretty much don’t bother attending games at PNC Park anymore.

Finally, you’d think he’d want to field better teams to make more money. There is no need. MLB has its own welfare program. If attendance is horrible, MLB will compensate him for the “loss”. A moron could own that team and pocket $40M/year with little to no questioning thanks to people’s obsession with these stupid sports teams (don’t care if its MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL ... they’re all a waste of your time and are costing you more than you think).

So, thanks to those stadiums, the deep state has a major ally to spew propaganda to the people that still follow that garbage. That’s your tax dollars at work. Playgrounds for billionaires.

"or other statements that undermine civil liberties."


Isn't that exactly what they (any of the leftards) are doing?

Sadly, there are some here that will strangle you if you “claim” that there was no riot on 1/6.

Some pervert supporter on YT called me a maga turd and said there were more cops killed on 1/6 than there was in all the riots put together.
