Lucroy made headlines recently by revealing that he has been inundated with hate mail following his outspoken posts on social media about the political climate and sports. In one notable incident, he defiantly refused to kneel during the national anthem while playing for one particular team.

“I gave them the finger,” he boldly declared on X.

Now, let’s take a moment to unpack this situation. Lucroy implores Americans to exercise their right to vote—an act so fundamental that it ought not be politicized at all. Yet here we are; people like him face vitriol simply for daring to challenge the status quo.

“God forbid a pro athlete stand up for what they believe,” Lucroy wrote in response to his critics.

This sentiment resonates deeply when juxtaposed against today’s culture of outrage and cancelation—a culture that seems more intent on silencing dissenting voices than fostering genuine dialogue.

He elaborates further. “That’s part of the problem. Some people are too sensitive, emotional, and weak to hear the opinion of people that reached the athletic pinnacle of the craft or any other top level. See [Elon Musk] and how much hate from the other side he’s getting.”

It is alarming how many athletes remain silent out of fear—fear not just from fans but also from organizations that prioritize image over integrity. According to Lucroy’s observations,

“I am not politically correct.”

His candidness shines through as he expresses unwavering conviction about what many don’t dare voice: “When I say that 90+% of American-born MLB players are conservative, you can take that to the bank.”

He continued, “We just don’t speak up as much because we are told to be neutral. I will not remain neutral anymore.”

This isn’t merely an isolated case; it’s indicative of a broader issue where those who achieve greatness feel pressured into silence regarding their beliefs due solely because they might upset someone else’s sensibilities.

Lucroy further emphasizes his stance by saying, “I’m stubborn and hardheaded.”

He understands fully well what it took him years on end in Major League Baseball—a journey fraught with challenges—to reach this point where he’s willing risk everything rather than compromise his values:

“I also know what it took for me…as well as witnessing character attributes defined by greatness among my peers…I care about my children, family, God, and country.”

The significance behind this is monumental—it speaks volumes about personal accountability versus being shackled by societal expectations fueled largely by political agendas masquerading under “neutrality.” In an appearance on “OutKick The Morning,” Lucroy explained why speaking out was vital:

“I don’t want to get specific,” but even without naming names directly, “…these teams they come down…they don’t want you politically polarizing…”

His story reveals how players were coerced into submission regarding both taking knees during national anthems or receiving vaccines under duress—actions dictated more so out fear rather than freedom or choice!

“But you know,” he admits candidly, “they just want you stay neutral…keep your mouth shut.”

And therein lies our quandary! These circumstances compel us all toward self-examination concerning our own willingness—or unwillingness—to stand firm amidst increasingly authoritarian pressures within society at large!

Ultimately it’s crystal clear: Jonathan Lucroy is calling upon fellow Americans—including athletes across every profession—to reclaim their voices against rampant hypocrisy! We need more individuals willing enough share authentic perspectives regardless potential fallout—even if requires giving “them” (whoever they may be) The Finger.

It didn’t work. Their efforts were wasted as the city was clearly in shambles despite their best efforts and social media had fun at their expense. One particular viral video epitomized the situation perfectly.

As fans walked near the stadium during All-Star Week, a fentanyl deal was caught on camera spilling his murderous pills. Some people took the polite but extremely dangerous course of trying to help him pick them up. Watch:

It’s hard to tell what’s worse: A drug dealer spilling his lethal drugs in broad daylight or the fact that most people didn’t seem to care. As bad as they expect things to be in Seattle, it’s actually even worse.

Curse-laden flyers were circulating among the people on the street calling for an “RV Park-In” starting Monday and into the day of the big game on Tuesday.

The flyer reads, “When the tailgaters and rich a–holes show up for the big game they’re going to find exactly what the city worked so hard to prevent: US!”

The Seattle homeless community announced that they will be going to war during the MLB All-Star game.

Homeless vagrants plan to occupy the parking lots of tailgate areas in defiance of the city removing their encampments before the game.

Seattle has battled homelessness with massive infusions of taxpayer dollars in recent years, but the radical leftist policies they’ve initiated have failed miserably. Instead, they continuously play a shell game, shuffling people off the streets and out of tents. Those living in RVs are moved around to different parking lots to keep them invisible from publicity.

The RVers’ plan is actually a good one that aligns with city ordinances. Vehicles must be parked in the same area for 72 hours before being compelled to move.

As the flyer notes, “We show up inside of 72 hours, they can’t really complain that we’re there. And when all is said and done, you’ll get first shot at newly opened parking, right now. All major SoDo no parking zones expire until July 11.”

There will even be snacks and coffee made available.

As with all major Democrat-run cities, Seattle spends huge budgets to hide problems rather than address them

In response, a movement arose which was subtle at first, but quickly gained momentum throughout the nation. It simply amounted to individuals and families leaving their homes and “taking a walk” each night in the evening, precisely during the time that the state controlled “news” was being broadcast. Soon, the streets were filled with strolling pedestrians, smiling and nodding to each other, then returning peaceably to their homes without incident. Yet their defiant message was unmistakable. And it ultimately contributed to a major course correction in Poland, upon the breakup of the Soviet “Empire.”

It is sad that Americans find themselves at a similar precipice. Though we are told no Gulag or other official bludgeon of free expression yet exists, the handwriting is on the wall. Still, the response of people who have known freedom and see it being wrested from them, even in such a murky societal cesspool as Los Angeles, is once again unmistakable. Of course the leftist Fake News propagandists are now attempting to suppress any discussion of the event, because it clearly did not go as they had hoped.

On Friday, June 16 2023, a major pillar of the leftist counterculture came crashing to the ground in front of the entire Nation. That was when the actual exhibition of degrading perversion, performed by the homosexual/drag group known as the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence” finally took place at the opening of the Dodgers/Giants game. It came after several weeks of loud controversy, in which the Dodgers’ invitation to the loathsome group was announced, then cancelled, then re-established under pressure. The planned performance received loud sanctimony and endorsements from the media and every prominent countercultural leftist with a microphone. But on Friday, despite the program going ahead as originally scheduled, the stadium was virtually empty!

Prior to game day, the spectacle was a topic of widespread discussion, when the leftists believed they could make a major statement against America and decency. The “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence” freak show was billed as an exhibition with mass appeal to the general public. Yet in its wake, the fiasco is barely being given any coverage, since it ran so thoroughly counter to the leftist narrative with its claims of the homosexual and transsexual agenda now being “mainstream,” and only a tiny “hateful fringe” on the right opposing them.

After all of the buildup and sanctimony, condemning critics with standard leftist labels of “homophobia” and their newest invention “transphobia,” Dodgers Stadium, typically full on a normal game night, held barely a few hundred throughout its vast capacity of fifty-six thousand. A far greater number attended a protest of the event, held outside the stadium. The mask was taken off, proving that it is the countercultural agenda and its advocacy of every form of moral and sexual deviancy that is the actual tiny fringe on the far left. Mainstream America remains mainstream, and rooted on solid ground.

The real message of last Friday, which needs to be fully understood and spread across America, is that the deafening silence in the empty bleachers was not just a rebuff to the profane extremists giving their profane performance, but to all those who supported it. The mainstream of society may not loudly decry their obscenity and perversion as they should, but the mainstream of society soundly rejects them! Americans, even in the “Belly of the Beast” of Los Angeles California, did not embrace the madness.

For better or worse, Christians/Conservatives do not engage in the sort of hysterical, ranting “protests” as do the leftists. By nature, they do not hold such behavior in high regard. Furthermore, even fervent expressions of Patriotic opposition to leftist outrages against America, such as J6 (which unlike leftist/antifa/BLM marauding, arson, and murder, was actually a peaceful protest), are so loudly condemned by sanctimonious leftists that too many on the Right become hesitant to even speak out. That needs to change! It is no coincidence that during the same span of time of the Dodgers controversy, Anheuser Busch has lost $28.7 billion dollars in value, after hiring “drag queen” Dylan Mulvaney to promote its previously popular Budweiser beer.

In quiet, courageous resolve, the people of Poland engaged in passive rejection of the state sponsored Communist propaganda, which ultimately originated in the Kremlin. Sadly, the dismantling of America’s moral foundations have been so intense, and so effective, that the Christian Conservative base frequently musters even less resolve in the face of mockery/derision (the weapons of radicals, per Saul Alinsky) than the people of Poland showed in defiance of the totalitarian Marxist state. Though this amounts to unwarranted leftist success, it is now glaringly obvious that it does not reflect a genuine change of heart among the people on “Main Street.”

Politicians had better take note. Seeming passivity by the good people of this Country does not constitute an “endorsement” of leftist moral/cultural rot, in any of its expressions. It is flatly wrong, and damaging to the country to play to the lunacy of the counterculture under any circumstances. Those aspiring politicians who get this message wrong and choose the wrong side, based on presumed “expedience,” prove themselves wholly unfit to serve in office now, or ever in the future. Real America must recognize its collective strength, and be willing to wield it against the insidious onslaught of the left.

To be crystal clear, this isn’t just a group of men in drag celebrating their mental illness. This is a full-blown, anti-Catholic and anti-Biblical organization that mocks the clergy and the crucifix as a prop to spread their hatred of all things holy.

As I’ve said for a long time, corporate America in general and professional sports in particular will ALWAYS bend the knee to their trans-supremacist overlords. This will never end until we stop giving them our support. Stop drinking Bud Light, stop buying from Target, and stop going to Dodgers (or any other professional sports team) games.

How many woke modern athletes would do something similar if the attacks happened today? How many would take a knee instead?

The reason is absurd. There were complaints that the sponsors included two pro-life organizations. According to Fox News:

The Rocky Mountain Vibes were slated to host Family Night during their game on Friday, but due to objections to two organizations partnering on the event, the team canceled. Save the Storks, one of the sponsors, said in a Facebook post that UCHealth, the health system company behind the Vibes’ stadium’s name, “was behind this shut down.”

However, the Vibes themselves said in a statement to Fox News that it was solely their decision to cancel.

“While we value all our sponsors and ticket holders, they do not make decisions regarding the nature of our post-game entertainment, or groups that come out to our stadium to raise awareness for their causes. The Vibes made this decision after seeing the proposed assets from the partner in question because they felt that the partner would hinder the team’s mission in providing fun and affordable family entertainment. Any statement placing blame on any outside party for cancelation of tonight’s events is inaccurate. The Vibes made this decision internally and stand by their choice.”

According to Outkick, Save the Storks is calling on people to demand refunds:

“We were delighted when the Rocky Mountain Vibes team came to us and asked if we could partner for Family Night. Now we are extremely disappointed and confused by this decision of the owners of the franchise and corporate owner of the UCHealth Park,” Save the Storks president Diane Ferraro said in a statement. “UCHealth is a company that says they offer care for women and families but is shutting down a night specifically intended for them.”

Ferraro also announced that their promotion of the family night event had driven over 3,000 ticket sales. After the team cancelled, she recommended that anyone who bought in support of her organization ask for refunds and not attend the game:

“We are encouraging our supporters to request refunds for their tickets and not attend an event that no longer welcomes families.”

For the Rocky Mountain Vibe to be so adamantly opposed to families that they are willing to cancel a game over sponsors is indicative of how outrageously the radical left has infected sports and other entertainment industries.
