LA Dodgers Make a Bud Light-Level Blunder
Knowledge Nuggets:
- The Los Angeles Dodgers have faced backlash from Christian groups after reinviting LGBTQ group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to their Pride Night on June 16.
- Initially, the team decided to disinvite the group in response to objections from Christians who were displeased about the award planned for the group at the event.
- Following the decision to reinvite them, CatholicVote declared its intentions to resume its campaign against the Dodgers, labeling the move as a “slap in the face of every Catholic.”
In a move that’s stirred controversy, the Los Angeles Dodgers have decided to reinvite the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a contentious LGBTQ group, to their Pride Night scheduled for June 16.
This decision follows the team’s initial choice to disinvite the group due to uproar from Christian quarters.
The Dodgers had originally planned to present the group with a community Hero Award during the event.
However, opposition from Christian groups, who took issue with the Sisters’ provocative actions and anti-Catholic sentiments, led to a temporary rescinding of the invitation.
The reinvitation of the Sisters has reignited the outrage, prompting CatholicVote to pledge a return to its campaign urging the Dodgers to distance themselves from the group.
Brian Burch, CatholicVote President, vowed to launch a series of advertisements against the team, hoping to attract attention from advertisers, season ticket holders, charities, and fans to rally against what they perceive as anti-Catholic hate.
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence is known for their flamboyant mockery of Catholicism through drag queen-inspired nun costumes and provocative performances.
Critics accuse them of bigotry and anti-Catholic sentiments, and these criticisms grew louder after the Dodgers’ recent reinvitation.

The LA dogers have gone the way of Newsom and that folks sucks
Demonic, self serving pukes and sadly the price should be BOYCOTTING THEM.
We learned all about Boycotting when they closed down America fir the Man Made BioWeapon they made and then the follow up jab
No Big Deal just pretend you need to wear a mask and that they have the virus of Immorality and you’ll do ok

Been a Dodger fan for over 50 years. After this incredible display against God Himself, no more Dodgers in this house.

While I despise what the modern-day hippies have allowed to happen in San Francisco, I will always be a proud Giants fan. No dodgers for me…ever.

SAME for me. Gone are my memories of Duke Snider, Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese, Preacher Roe,
Don Drysdale, and so many other Dodger greats. The current slackers deserve NOTHING from fans any longer.

Disgusting that we are letting a perverted bunch of freaks who represent two-percent of the total population dictate that we accept their perversion. Welcome to the 21st-Century Freak Show. Our nation is beginning to resemble the Roman Empire during the reign of Caligula, Nero and Elagabalus.

They need to boycott ALL their games where ever they are played. Let them play to empty stadiums with zero $$$$ in ticket and concession revenues. Lets see if the alphabet gang can support their inflated salaries, etc

First Anheuser-busch, then Target, now the Dodger baseball organization. All three in bed with satan. When will they learn?
Boycot their sponsors. It’s the only language they understand.

I an a God Fearing Protestant. I have always admired the Nuns because of their Commitment and Service to the World at large. This group of “imposters” is simply asking for God’s Wrath to be poured out on themselves. God help them repent! Dodgers need to repent to God Almighty as well!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I’ve been a Dodger since 1951, when I was 8. My biggest heroes were Duke and Campy. The greatest hero of all time is Johnny Podres. For more than 70 years the only color that has mattered is Dodger Blue. Tommy Lasorda said, “All that matters is if you can play.” That should be good enough. One of the thrills of my life was getting to shake the hand and talk to Big Newk, a few years ago. I put a poster in the stands to help them win in 2020. Now my beloved Dodgers have kicked me in the stomach. What am I to do?

Do as I have, Bart. Boycott anything Dodgers and their sponsors. By the way, I’ve been a dyed-in-the-wool Dodger fan from around the time you began. What a sickening disappointment they have become.

How does MLB come to the position of awarding “Heroes Award” to a group of Perverts whose purpose is only to ridicule faithful followers of Christ, with overtly sexual displays featuring a man on a Cross. The majority of Americans are fed-up with entities like AB, Target, and MLB (in uniform of LA Dodgers). I am confident that these and any others that take this road…will find it very bumpy road…leading nowhere!

I think an all out boycott of the June 16th game is in order. Maybe, if they see their gate drop by 50% or more, they might wise up. Probably not but maybe.
Incidentally, there are many more Christians who are NOT Catholics than there are that are Catholic!
Good Luck

Have never pushed my way of life on anyone but the LGBTQ groups keeps pushing their way of life
on us. They think we should all be both sexes in one. That’s not how we were made. Leave our children alone. That goes for parents and schools too who think the child they had is not good enough that
they have to change their sex. Ill in the brain. Love who they are.
Big companies need to stop pushing this crap on us too. Don’t want to purchase their products.

I’ve been a Dodger fan since they were in Brooklyn, New York. I will no longer watch, attend a game or buy anything that says Dodgers. It was a mistake for the family to sell the team but, I understand why they sold it. I feel for the younger generation coming up, they will not know the team or this great country like I have.
GOD BLESS AMERICA

Personally I haven’t watched a Dodger game in sometime. This stunt by the Dodgers is downright disgusting. So sad.

The Dodgers need to be CRUSHED! This needs to happen NOW! Why? As an example to all other sports teams, and individuals to learn what happens when they stray from their purpose of playing their sport for the enjoyment of the people. We the people pay the TOO HIGH prices for THE SPORT, NOT Their view on ANYTHING else! Shut up, Play your sport, and go home to enjoy your overpaid compensation! If you cannot do that, you deserve a boycott, along with any product sponsors who support them!
If sports teams and players insist on shooting their mouths off about all the things they know nothing about, THE TICKETS SHOULD BE FREE!

I’ve always told my daughter that she can do anything that she wants in this world, as long as she is willing to pay the price for it. The Dodgers and any person or organization that is dependent on customers or public support should be especially aware of this concept.
