Large banners supporting the Proud Boys and former President Trump cause stir at Miami Marlins game

A Proud Boys banner is displayed at a recent Miami Marlins game. (@MarlinsIn5)
MIAMI – The Miami-based Proud Boys are back in the news again after unfurling two large banners during a Miami Marlins game at loanDepot park.

This isn’t the first time it’s happened at a Major League Baseball game lately, either.

Five people were ejected from Tuesday’s game after the signs came out.

One of the signs saying former President Trump had won the 2020 election, and the other saying the Proud Boys did nothing wrong and are being held as political prisoners.

Stadium rules say signs can’t obstruct existing signage, can’t contain political language, and can’t be attached to a wall structure or pole. Tuesday’s signs appeared to break all of those rules.

According to this article, he basically said that one side is arguing that Trump won the election, the other side is saying Trump didn’t win the election, and it’s hard to know which side is right. Way to go to support the insurrection!

How about saying instead that a free and fair election indicated that Trump lost the Presidency?
