It's ironic how many people who claims to favor freedom and personal liberty think that DSP should be forced to go to the White House.
You are spinning this way out of bounds. For one thing, DSP should have kept his mouth shut about the president and the White House. His dumb young ass hasn't a clue about anything but hockey and being an NHL player has nothing to do with politics. STFU is number one. Next point is they are a team; they should stick to the honor of their accomplishment in sports and go together as a team if invited to the White House.
DSP hasn't got the first clue about politics, so to the person that said that DSP did not make this comment to draw attention to himself, I call total bullshit. That's ALL this ever was for DSP, a selfish, ignorant comment that he thought might bring him some attention.
I am still waiting to hear one single reality based reason why Trump is not thus far a great president. It appears that Crosby is not the only one that pees sitting down. There are a whole lot more whiny, crying little bitches today than I ever could have imagined possible at the time the Caps team was formed. I do know this; at the time the Caps became a franchise, if any pro sports player disrespected the president in a similar fashion to what we are seeing today, that player would have been DESTROYED in the media regardless of the political affiliations.
It's about class, respect, and selflessness, something that progressive zombie snowflakes may never understand because they've been edumacated (sp!) to be rude and intolerant, and they've been stripped of the ability to have an independent thought. I have close relatives who are conservative and going to top universities, such as UC Berkeley and Princeton. They have found they had better keep their mouths shut or they will be persecuted by the intolerant violent leftist thugs. These are young kids just entering college and they told me there is so much pressure to tow the liberal line that they learned to simply STFU. It's all very sad. I know the reasons for this assault, but the explanation requires a fair number of books to fully explain -- because nearly everyone, right and left included, does not have the background knowledge required to step fully out of the "reality" bubble that IS their lives.
It boggles the mind how some people can be led to slaughter all the while arguing and fighting for their right to be slaughtered. That is exactly how I view the modern liberal millennial. To be a so-called liberal means you are either really dumbed down or are corrupt in some way, either by greed, blackmail, or having sold your soul to the devil. There is no other possible way they could exist. They are a dangerous threat to humanity and IMO conservatives have been far too tolerant for their own good. There comes a point when you have to realize the enemy for the threat that they are and take appropriate measures. Our own stupidity and tolerance maybe just as bad as the vile opposition. As I have said for some time, We are at WAR!! and these topics of discussion are the weapons, but not the cause. Again, for that we have to go much deeper.
