New York Rangers DITCH wearing LGBTQ-themed warmup jerseys and rainbow tape on Pride Night

Too many people have a "keep politics out of sports," point of view, until it's something they agree with, then it's all cool. If your opinion is "have none of it," I may disagree, but I can respect it.

Like I said, I have a lot of respect for the veterans and what they went throught. But, I'm not a fan of military promotion, NATO expansion and US military interventionism. I'm for celebrating the tradition of hockey, old players who retired or died, but all these kinds of politics in the game, not a fan.

Part of the problem may be the fact we are bombarded with politics today. This isn't a left/right issue. It's EVERYWHERE. So I think a lot of people, when they get a whiff of anything they even think is political is like, "no, I'm out. Please stop." It's a shame, because I think a lot of worthwhile causes get nixed under this, "nope, nothing political" mentality. But again, I disagree, but I get it.

Well to be fair, veterans day is an actual holiday with a day off, and the history is taught in schools quite extensively. Plus, the only difference is you support one over the other. If you want to keep politics out of it, it's all politics, not just what you or I oppose.

Please, this city and Montreal have tranny book readings each and every day. How often are veterans invited to do the same. You must be part of the Cancel Culture because you sure have your Woke blinders on.

the day off thing
maybe in the states but not up here in Canada (only government)
you are right.
i do support the veterans over the lifestyle groups.
not afraid to admit it publicly.
veterans risk their lives to protect our country
what the lbgtq+ group does is for themselves only
i do not hate them i just dont support them
and dont feel sports teams should be forced to give them another day, each team. each sport.
sports should be about sports, we dont need politics shoved down our throats while we try to enjoy the game

and i cant not say this
because these are our children
the tranny book readings in the lower grades
i consider that child abuse.

i am awake but not woke

When did I day I wanted anything cancelled? Accusing me of cancel culture, while litterally supporting the cancellation of something is rather ironic. I've clearly stated I support everyone having different opinions, but I also support others' rights to voice objections to those opinions.

Out of respect for the LBGTQ2S+ members of this community, let's just not do this.
