If the shoe was on the other foot and Las Vegas had been found to have cheated, would the Jackie Robinson supporters be saying it was racially motivated and refuse to accept the trophy?

Death Threats for Suburban Little League Official Who Reported Jackie Robinson West; Priest Accuses Him of Racist 'Witch Hunt'

After Jackie Robinson West Little League was stripped of its national championship, Chris Janes' phone blew up with death threats.

By Dennis Robaugh (Patch National Staff) February 11, 2015 at 2:02pm

In a press conference Wednesday, the Rev. Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Parish on the South Side singled out Janes for criticism and said Janes was on a racially motivated “witch hunt.”

“I wonder if the same thing would’ve happened to another league, another team, another place,” Pfleger said at the press conference. “It’s most unacceptable to go after the children and target the children.”

Pfleger is the same priest that called for the murder of a gun shop owner and state representatives.

ISRA: Chicago Priest Calls for Murder of Gun Shop Owner

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., May 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following was released today by the Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA):

Nobody expected Saturday's Operation PUSH protest at Chuck's Gun Shop & Range to be anything other than a circus of the bizarre.

However, nobody anticipated that an address by a Chicago priest would include a call for the murder of a suburban gun shop owner and legislators who oppose gun control.

During an address at an anti-gun rally in front of Chuck's, Rev.

Michael Pfleger, pastor of St. Sabina's Church, exhorted the crowd to "drag" shop owner, John Riggio, from his shop "like a rat" and "snuff" him.

Rev. Pfleger went on to tell the crowd that legislators that vote against gun control legislation should be "snuffed" as well. As many know, "snuff" is slang for especially violent murder.
