Jail is not fun. Most will just avoid it.
I watch very little sports mainly confined to Univ. of Kentucky basketball and football and unless they are only on ESPN that channel never appears on my TV. I don’t support totalitarians in any form.
Resistance does need to be unanimous or even from a majority of the People. During the American Revolution only about 25% of the population supported the Revolution. During the Civil War a large portion of the North opposed the war.
All that is necessary is determination and influence. The gay rights movement is a perfect example of this.
Leadership, discipline and organization such as Lenin in Russia where 250,000 seized power in a country of 100,000,000.
"And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,"~Matthew 19:4
Anything else is pure rebellion against the Creator. For those embracing the lie, their conscience can not bare those who stand in the truth. The only answer is to try to suppress it. They are the blind attempting to lead the blind. But truth is truth no matter who attempts to redefine it. John 8:32
Except no one really likes him because he’s a bit of a dolt.
Where are the conservative geeks who can be the balance for this stuff? How come it’s so one-sided?
Well that may be, but banning him because of an issue like this, calls for support.
Sometimes you have to stand up for dolts when they are persecuted for a proper stance.
On a cursory review, it seems like his firing was just that.
If it can be explain reasonably that he was wrong, I’d like to have someone explain it to me. I might agree if the grounds for it are sound.
Like when your country is flat on her back with her feet in the air.
Crazy.
There was a rumor a little while back that General “Mad Dog” Mattis might be drafted at the convention, and I kind of joined in with the “I understand how some people feel about generals and politics...” When I stopped and thought:
“Good God, what am I saying?????? I would vote for Mattis 10,000X over before anyone in this or the last Presidential Election...”
True. Who the Hell to vote for?
Should make for a strong wrongful termination lawsuit against ESPN.
Sounds like mooselimbs.
You would think, but these days...
It’d be up for grabs.
Stuff like this will simply plant the seeds for a future rebellion.
Certainly the Sheeple's version of resistance.
Yeah, but see? It won’t matter for as long as people are unwilling to withhold even the least little thing from themselves.
Most of the same people grousing about ESPN firing Curt Schilling will set aside their ire and be watching ESPN next weekend because they just “have to see the big game.”
If sports is more important to people than even basic decency, why do we think ESPN will suffer in the least for this?
When I take my grand daughter out and she has to use the bathroom, while she’s in there NO man is going to go in.
There is no freedom of speech in this country.
“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
