>> Major League umpires, you’d assume, would be sticklers for the rules, but not veteran ump Rob Drake. As the World Series was kicking off in Houston on Tuesday, the 10-year veteran tweeted out his own violent, anarchic thoughts on the impeachment inquiry currently underway in the Capitol. “I will be buying an AR-15 tomorrow, because if you impeach MY PRESIDENT this way, YOU WILL HAVE ANOTHER CIVAL WAR!!! #MAGA2020.”
The 50-year-old quickly deleted the tweet, which echoed the far-right “civil war” talking point that has seeped into the brains of the Trumpiest of Americans. The apparent logic being: It’s totally fine, patriotic even, to take up arms against your own country if a call doesn’t go your way. The idea that it is perfectly acceptable to threaten violence is one that the NRA often uses and foments, under the guise of constitutionality. << --- Ump Buying AR-15 to Shut Out his Own Countrymen
Drake is not involved in the "World" Series but he's now under MLB investigation.
This is the waste product of installing a POTUS bent on division and inciting others to violence. Instant replay:
Sure, Rob Drake should be tossed out of the game, but that's only treating the symptom, not the disease. Chickens coming home to roost; divided we fall.
This is the waste product of installing a POTUS bent on division and inciting others to violence. Instant replay:
I would call it the waste product of liberal social media which is driving Americans apart
In the old days people got angry over the news and made rash comments that were not broadcast to the entire world
Now we are on a downward spiral fueled by lib social media that magnifies every difference of opinion
