San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler boycotts national anthem, uses Uvalde shooting as excuse

Apparently Major League baseball, and especially the San Francisco Giants are using the massacre in Uvalde to boycott the national anthem (on Memorial Day weekend!). There must be something in the water in San Francisco.. First Colin Kaepernick as the San Francisco 49ers did his knee thing during the national anthem, now Giants manager Gabe Kapler decides to boycott the national anthem because of a school shooting on Memorial Day weekend. Screw San Francisco, screw Kapler and screw Major League Baseball.

What about all the other school shootings? Did Kapler boycott the national anthem then? Of course not. This shooting didn’t have the racism angle the left loves to exploit, so Kapler found another way. Spit in the face of all those in the United States for mourning the U.S. military personnel who have died while serving in the United States armed forces.

Kapler wrote about his feelings toward America, gun violence and the Uvalde massacre. In the post, he explained his father told him to stand for the pledge of allegiance when he thought the country was representing its people well and not to stand during times when it was not.

It’s not the first time Kapler has made a statement with his actions. In 2020, Kapler and several Giants players kneeled during the national anthem to protest racial injustice.

“We weren’t given bravery, and we aren’t free,” Kapler wrote on his blog on Friday. “The police on the scene put a mother in handcuffs as she begged them to go in and save her children. They blocked parents trying to organize to charge in to stop the shooter, including a father who learned his daughter was murdered while he argued with the cops. We aren’t free when politicians decide that the lobbyist and gun industries are more important than our children’s freedom to go to school without needing bulletproof backpacks and active shooter drills.”
