Player def. weighed in, there are interviews.
MLB cannot afford to alienate half of its athletes. Do you think Hank Aaron Jackie Robinson did what they did, only to have the likes of Gov. Kemp take it all away while players of color sit on their hands today? |
Take what away? |
But why would the President deliberately lie and demand that MLB move the all-star game from Georgia? Did he not know this would hurt the Atlanta economy? |
Hank Aaron is revered pretty much by everyone in the Atlanta area, and the Braves do not want to play elsewhere. |
Aaron family says STFU. |
Hank Aaron the public figure belongs to Kelly as much as that kid. |
Yes, Hank Aaron as a public figure is public domain. However, HOW she is using him is completely dishonest and unethical. Hank Aaron was a long-time supporter of minority rights, plus fighting for civil rights and civil rights organizations such as the NAACP. For Loeffler to say "At a time when the MLB had the opportunity to honor an iconic trailblazer in Hank Aaron they instead opted to honor politics" is completely disingenuous. MLB's decision to protest the racist voting laws that Georgia just enacted is the very essence of honoring Hank Aaron's memory and personal beliefs. She is being competely disrespectful of his legacy to try and cast protests against the Georgia Republicans voting law as dishonoring his legacy and memory. |
No. Aaron doesn't "belong" to that vile POS Kelly. |
You won't get an answer to this from liberals. He lied for a few reasons. First, he was told to. By Stacey Abrams, Ossoff and Warnock. And, his handlers. Secondly, the Democrats definitely don't want photo id. It will reduce their vote - not by disenfranchising anyone, but by severely reducing fraud. And, lastly - he desperately wants HR1 to pass. What better way than trying to drum up support from his base by lying about the law, calling it "Jim Crow on steroids" and implying that states just can't be responsible enough to pass voting laws. Many people who heard his lies actually believe him. And, yes, he knew it would negatively impact the Atlanta economy. He doesn't care. He is probably secretly encouraging the MLB to have the game in a deep blue state to help with their economy. This is the "uniter" he said he'd be. Lots of buyer's remorse going on right now between his "less than moderate" positions and his promise to "be a uniter." |
Still flogging that fraud story. Despite all of the failed attempts to find it. |
cite? (and breitbart and fox don't count) |
So in your mind, MLB are just a bunch of "woke" suits willing to kowtow to whomever on a whim. Got it. |
Sens Warnock and Ossoff as well as Stacey Abrams have not called on a boycott of Georgia over the voter suppression bill. Abrams asked MLB to reconsider its All-Star Game decision. All of these boycotts are on Gov. Kemp and this isn't the first time his policies have hurt Georgia jobs.

Were there no democrats, democrat media personalities, or democrat celebrities call for a boycott? |
