Detroit Tigers Throw Out Woman for Wearing Christian Shirt

Liberals have a concept called “repressive tolerance,” according to which it is intolerant to tolerate whatever they choose to designate as intolerant. Todd Starnes reports on how this is applied to Christians:

A Christian woman says she was escorted out of a Detroit Tigers game after fans complained about her “Jesus Over Pride” shirt…

Paige Combs-Morgan, 31, of Commerce Township, Mich., told The Detroit News she was attending Friday’s Tigers game at Comerica Park against the Chicago White Sox when stadium employees and Detroit police removed her from the ballpark. The shirt featured a cross, the word “Jesus” in rainbow colors and the phrase “Jesus over Pride.”

Like homosexuality, pride is regarded as a sin in the religion that has served as the foundation of Western Civilization for the past 2,000 years.

Combs-Morgan said the message was a peaceful expression of her Christian faith and a response to recent controversy involving San Francisco Giants players who wrote Bible verses on Pride-themed caps.

More on the Giants revolt here.

“We hear a lot of messages about LGBTQ pride, and I think it’s important to get another message out: Put Jesus before pride,” Combs-Morgan told The Detroit News. “I don’t hate gay people; Jesus said to love everyone.”

Militant moonbats complained that her shirt did not comply with their ideology. So the Tigers threw her out.

Pro Baseball Team Forfeits Game After Players Refuse to Wear LGBT Jerseys

For years, the leftists who run baseball have compelled players to advocate for their sick ideology. But pushback is growing.

Clayton Kershaw responded to the forced promotion of homosexuality by writing Genesis 9:12-16 on his hat. Blake Treinen refused to wear a rainbow hat. Landen Roupp followed Kershaw’s lead. Now resistance is brewing in the minors.

Via Fox News:

A professional baseball team in Pennsylvania will be forfeiting a game Thursday that was scheduled to be the team’s Pride Night after players refused to wear LGBTQ-themed jerseys, the team announced.

The team is aptly named:

The York Revolution of the Atlantic League, the same league in which Trevor Bauer plays, said the decision “was not reached lightly” in announcing the forfeit against the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs Wednesday.

As usual in pro sports, the bosses are the bad guys:

The team was not afraid to throw its players under the bus in a rather scathing statement, saying it was “deeply troubled and profoundly disappointed by the decisions of these few players.”

“To be clear, this action by the players is completely inconsistent with our vision as the Most Welcoming Place in York,” the team’s statement continued.

Not so welcoming to Christians or anyone else who does not want to wallow in politicized degeneracy and depravity.

The team announced it would donate $10,000 to LGBT militants so as to spite its own players — and presumably most of its fans. That won’t stop the revolution from spreading.

Courage is contagious. This is bad news for progressives.

Resistance to Mandatory LGBTism Spreads to San Francisco Giants

Blake Treinen is not the only August Landmesser standing up to the leftist social engineers running Major League Baseball. Resistance has arisen right in the heart of moral decay — San Francisco.

From Outkick Sports:

Late last week, the San Francisco Giants hosted their “Pride Night,” with the team wearing hats with a rainbow-colored Giants logo.

The point is to force players to publicly advocate homosexuality.

Several Giants pitchers, in a statement of their faith, wrote Bible verse designations on their hats.

Landen Roupp followed the lead of Dodger great Clayton Kershaw with a reference to Genesis 9:12-16:

And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:

I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.

And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:

And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

That’s what the rainbow means. For it to be appropriated by militant degenerates in the name of sexual perversion is sheer blasphemy.

A couple other Giants also stood tall. JT Brubaker wrote Genesis 9:13 on his hat. Sam Hentges reportedly refused to wear an LGBT hat at all.

The liberals in charge are not happy:

“The writing on the cap violates our rules, and consistent with normal practice, we have warned the players about future violations,” said Pat Courtney, MLB’s chief communications officer, in a statement.

At least, it violates their rules when they don’t like the message.

Christians have for millennia suffered far worse persecution for their faith than anything MLB moonbats can inflict. This persecution continues in benighted places like Africa and communist China. If a Nigerian has the guts to show up for church in light of recent massacres, no ballplayer should be afraid to write a Bible verse on his hat.

Another Knicks Game, Another Burst of Public Mayhem

As predicted, regardless of the outcome of last night’s Knicks game, there was bound to be public violence. We saw what it looks like when the Knicks lose. When they win, it looks about the same:

A society that allows this is living on borrowed time.

Violent Chaos in New York Following Knicks Game

Posted on by

As civilization collapses under moonbat rule in New York, attending public events can be hazardous to your health. Outkick reports on last night’s official New York Knicks watch party:

After the San Antonio Spurs spoiled the party with a 115-111 win, many unruly Knicks fans took out their frustrations in the streets by creating as much chaos as possible.

As if they would not also have rioted if the Knicks had won.

Massive brawls broke out around the official watch party at Bryant Park, with officers in riot gear rushing to the scene in an attempt to control the fans. Pepper spray was deployed amid the intense scene unfolding in the streets.

The watch party could not be held outside Madison Square Garden where the Knicks play due to security concerns because Trump was in attendance.

The expectation is that an official watch party for Wednesday’s Game 4 in New York City will be held outside of Madison Square Garden. Whether the Knicks grab a commanding 3-1 lead in the series or the visiting Spurs tie the series at 2-2, it’s safe to assume some level of chaos will unfold in the streets yet again.

Presenting the new normal in what has been our greatest city:

Dodger Pitcher Blake Treinen Is a Modern August Landmesser

Posted on by

August Landmesser is admired to this day for being the lone German who refused to give a Nazi salute at the launch of army vessel in 1936. The photo showing him standing with arms folded is iconic. His modern equivalent pitches for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Blake Treinen refused to wear a hat promoting sexual perversion on LGBTQ Pride Night last Friday.

Fox News reminds us that Treinen has rebelled before:

When the Dodgers decided to reinvite and honor the anti-Christian drag nun group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, he made his stance clear. Treinen said that he was “disappointed to see The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence being honored as heroes at Dodger Stadium. Many of their performances are blasphemous, and their work only displays hate and mockery of Catholics and the Christian faith.”

Here’s what his hat looked like after a moonbat assassinated Charlie Kirk last year:

Treinen is not alone. Apparently catcher Alex Call didn’t wear a rainbow hat either. A couple of years ago, Dodger great Clayton Kershaw responded to Pride Night by writing “Gen 9:12-16” on his hat. That part of Genesis establishes the true meaning of the rainbow, which has been blasphemously appropriated by the militantly sinful.

Hats off to those with the guts to stand their ground.

Texas Rangers Stand Alone by Honoring Faith and Family Instead of Depraved Debauchery

Posted on by

I haven’t watched a baseball game since I saw the local Arizona Diamondbacks kneeling in obeisance to Black Lives Matter in 2020. It is hard to get enthused while moonbattery is rubbed in your face. If I become a fan again, it will be to follow a different team: the Texas Rangers. Townhall explains why:

The Rangers appear to be the only MLB team with the courage to buck the gay pride trend, as they are the lone club to refuse to post any pro-LBGT content as of now. The team further decided that they would stand on the side of Christians and have opted to host a “Faith and Family Night” on June 18.

According to the Rangers’ Community Nights page, it will feature personal testimonies from Rangers players on “how faith impacts their lives both on and off the field.”

Other upcoming events from the Rangers include a Military Appreciation Night on Jul 4 and a First Responders Day on July 12.

When the Rangers won the World Series in 2023, they were the only team that refused to use ball games to promote homosexuality — to the dismay of the media. Here’s hoping the Rangers prevail again in 2026.

Transexual Cheats His Own Sister Out of Winning Track Races

Posted on by

Women’s Soccer is not the only female sport to face farcification. In the Land of Fruits and Nuts, a guy posing as a girl has been cheating his own sister out of first place in track races.

Via Reduxx:

A trans-identified male freshman from an elite school in California won the Women’s Varsity 400-meter race at the Prep League Championship Finals last week, defeating a number of more experienced female athletes to the title, including his own sister.

To achieve transsexualism, a moonbat first must abandon even the last vestigial traces of shame.

Paul Haaga, also known as “Lina,” won the girls’ final with a time of 59.45 seconds. His older sister, Sienna, finished second with 60.03 seconds.

He beat his sister by less than a second. On the boys’ team, he would finish last.

Haaga also helped his team take gold in the Women’s Varsity 4 x 400 relay to clinch first place by just under a second, once again pushing his sister into second place.

Track is not the only sport this 14-year-old fellow has been ruining:

Along with competing in track, he was described as “one of the key singles players” for the school in girls tennis, and has also tried his hand at basketball, swimming, lacrosse, and water polo.

In addition to awards earned by others, Haaga enjoys the privileged status of a victim. He whimpered to The Guardian about the oppression that looms over him:

He claimed that any ban on trans-identified male athletes in female sports would make him “uncomfortable” and that it would result in him being “robbed” of the friends and opportunities he’s made in girl’s athletics.

Master Haaga says it is “really scary” that “somebody might disagree with [his] participation” on girls’ teams. No doubt the moonbats at The Guardian provided tissues for his tears.

His family background may offer insight into why the boy was persuaded to “transition” into a faux female at such a young age:

His grandfather, Paul Haaga Jr., was at one time the acting President and CEO of NPR, which often takes a strong pro-trans line in their coverage, and is also a former trustee of the Facebook Oversight Board.

Let’s hope someone is keeping track of which girls’ teams have boys on them, so that victories can be retroactively restored to those who have earned them after the ideological abomination that is transsexualism has been abolished.
