The L.A. Dodgers just hit into a triple play. The game is over. The season is over. The franchise may be over.
First of all, the Dodgers hosted an LGBT pride night, as though the sports team prefers to play politics, instead of baseball. So, I say, let them turn into an advocacy group, instead of a baseball team. Boycott them.
By the way, I don’t think they host a “Straight Male-Female Straight Night,” but that is another matter. Maybe they could serve Vanilla Coke and vanilla ice cream for free, or something.
To add insult to injury, the Dodgers decided to invite, disinvite, then reinvite (triple play reference applies, again) the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, an anti-Catholic, LGBT+ group of “drag nuns” to attend their LGBT pride night. I hope they had plenty of Bud Light on hand.
Let me be clear. I was the first psychiatrist to identify the LGBT movement as increasingly manifesting illness, rather than choice, and to go on national television and state that fact (in 2011, on Fox News). I predicted that the movement would attempt to vigorously communicate with and influence children to become transgender (which is the same as becoming psychologically ill, by the way). And I now predict that the LGBT movement, seemingly untethered to anything like good sense, will tear apart the fabric of the nation, if left unchecked.
I want to be clear about something else, too: Containing the LGBT movement should not involve a single act of violence against this community. I wouldn’t want people suffering with panic disorder to be harmed for panicking, and I would risk my own life to prevent anyone suffering with psychosis (transgenderism) from being harmed. But to say that transgender individuals are not ill would be no favor to them, either. And to pretend that people displaying a mental illness as the centerpiece of their lives should be held up as role models and encouraged to recruit children to follow them would be no favor to the rest of us.
The L.A. Dodgers decided to be a vector of illness and hate by hosting LGBT pride night and inviting a group that mocks Catholics. There should be hell to pay.
