Has there been any backlash to their decision?

Because if not (or very little) this is a complete non-issue for both sides.


Hopefully not. That said, I think forcing people to "opt out" of representing sexual orientation on their uniform in a baseball game is a pretty ridiculous cultural thing in and of itself.

I do not know their hearts but judging by their actions this is an unequivocally false statement.

Oh look, the fricking moron just created an entire fictional narrative because he's too much of a pussy to have a real conversation. I'm a libertarian, you absolute fricking donkey. Go back to the PT

They don't wear heterosexual patches so why should they wear rainbow patches?

I would have just said "No, I'm not wearing it."



Its a patch, anyone bent out of shape over not wearing a patch is a pussy.

If they burned it or mocked it, I would get the outrage.

It’s not going to lick itself. I was all about gay marriage being legal because I didn’t think the government should have frick all to do with two people getting married, but I’m starting to think the people that said it was a slippery slope, might have had a point. Start fricking with kids in primary school and now I have a problem with this BS and fricking with kindergarten kids isn’t some right wing talking point, it’s happening right now.

Danke. It's a crop from the cover of an old V for Vendetta graphic novel. I've been using it online for the better part of two decades. Never changed it since I joined this board in 2008. But sure, huge gotcha there, sport

Oh look. The ticking retard who thinks the fake libertarian genuflection act works anymore. Stop pretending like you really want an educated discussion. You are a fricking joke.

Half wits like you give fake libertarians a bad name

Hey ticking pussy, my "fake libertarian genuflection act" must be a hell of a long con, considering there's evidence of it on the PT spanning, literally, over a decade. If the posts still exist on there, you can find me stumping for Ron Paul back in 2012

But sure, come out with a string of assumptions and insults but pretend like I'm the one chasing off educated conversation. Hypocritical, thin skinned fricking puss

I've seen the movie chief. If you can't see the irony in your shitposting I'll post the movie description below

quote:

The film is set in a future where a fascist totalitarian regime has subjugated the UK. It centres on V (portrayed by Hugo Weaving), an anarchist and masked freedom fighter who attempts to ignite a revolution through elaborate terrorist acts, and Evey Hammond (portrayed by Natalie Portman) a young woman caught up in V's mission

I have no idea what you're trying to say, but you seem to be enjoying this silly hill of yours, so I'll leave you to it
