More proof that the radical, loony, far left doesn’t want you or me to express your faith in public (or anywhere else, for that matter). It might be too offensive to the perpetually offended simpletons who make the majority of the dimocrat party base these days.
A high school player was penalized for taking a knee and pointing up towards the heavens in the end zone during a game after scoring a touchdown. The referee called it unsportsmanlike conduct.
In the second quarter of the game, Tumwater (WA.) High School running back Ronnie Hastie scored on a 23-yard run, took a knee in the end zone, and briefly pointed up towards the heavens above. For that the referee threw a flag and penalized Hastie’s team five yards, saying it was unsportsmanlike conduct. I’d flag the idiot ref for un-American conduct.
I see college football players, who are also amateurs, like high school players, and NFL players, do this all the time, and not get penalized. A lot of players from both teams get together in a prayer circle after every game and guess what they do? PRAY to and thank GOD! Oh, the inhumanity of it all!
Hell, at every Notre Dame University home football game, all the players, even those not Catholic, before the start of the game, attend mass in formal attire at Sacred Heart Basilica. After the Mass, students line up on either side of the walkway, from the Church to Notre Dame stadium, which the team walks through.
Anyway, back to Ronnie Hastie. Of course, we all know that the ACLU will be right on this like flies to honey because the kid’s free speech rights were violated. They will….Really….Seriously. Okay, they won’t. They’re too busy defending terrorists, child-rapists and other miscreants to come to the defense of a kid who did nothing more than take about three seconds give praise to God on his own.
Did I ever tell you I detest liberals?
