NHL Teams quietly scale back on the rainbow jerseys
The Minnesota Wild scrapped its plans for players to wear rainbow-themed warm-up jerseys during Pride celebrations.
The Pride Night celebrations were still held by the Wild, which issued this statement: “The Minnesota Wild organization is proud to continue our support for the LGBTQIA+ community by hosting our second annual pride night, which we are celebrating in many ways. It is important to host nights like this to show all players, fans, and the LGBTQIA+ community that hockey is for everyone."
Last month, the New York Islanders’ players did not wear Pride jerseys in warm-up, something that has been team policy for some time. Team captain Anders Lee spoke publicly for the Islanders, saying, “For us here in this room, we take care of what we can here and obviously are very supportive of the LGBTQ+ community and do what we can to include them in our game,” Lee told the New York Post.
Of course, a better second step is stop promoting the evil and inferior lifestyle choice which is sodomy.
