looks like more lgbtqrswxyz games are going bust like this one with a baseball team;
Major League Baseball’s Los Angeles Dodgers finally held their highly anticipated LGBT “Pride” celebration at Dodger Stadium on Friday, June 16. The event, celebrating the anti-Catholic drag queen group The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, was initially scheduled, canceled due to backlash from Catholic groups, and then rescheduled after the team bowed to pressure from the LGBT mafia.
The Dodgers’ wishy-washy response and their cowardly acquiescence to LGBT groups caused members of the Catholic community in Southern California to come out in droves to protest the event. Thousands of Catholics and other Christian groups blocked one entrance to the stadium, praying and letting out their outrage for the inclusion of The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group that mocks nuns and the Catholic faith.
During very sparsely attended pre-game festivities, the Dodgers gave the heretical group a “Community Hero” award.
Community reaction was mixed. Although there was barely anyone in the crowd as The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence received their award, attendance eventually climbed to just over 49,000. The previous year’s “Pride” night was attended by over 52,000.
But community reaction was mixed in other ways as well. For instance, the Los Angeles Times referred to the event as a “rainbow of love.”
“Dodger Stadium has rarely looked more empty,” wrote columnist Bill Plaschke. But, he added, “Dodger Stadium has rarely felt more full…. Dodgers’ Pride Night feels like a rainbow of love.”
But the “love” Plaschke described was not felt by everyone. Bill Donohue of the Catholic League referred to the event as a “bust.”..........more........
