ESPN, Cowardly Dhimmi Network

ESPN suspended Curt Schilling for having the nerve to compare Islamist's to Nazis. Other than they both desire(ed) to exterminate Jews, the "Ultimate Solution", and Hitler provided sanctuary and funding to the Grand Mufti (Muslim) of Jerusalem during WWII, Nazis and Islamist's are nothing alike. On second thought, other than one group likes to bugger little boys and goats, what's the difference?

Quote:
On Tuesday, ESPN suspended former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling for tweeting a meme comparing radical Muslims to Nazis.

Schilling deleted the tweet after blowback. ESPN released a statement upon suspending Schilling:

Curt’s tweet was completely unacceptable, and in no way represents our company’s perspective. We made that point very strongly to Curt and have removed him from his current Little League assignment pending further consideration.

I can't stomach any of the ESPN shows that are not game broadcasts.....and I have a low tolerance for those as well sometimes watching a game on mute.

That said, ENTERTAINMENT and sports programming network

Remember, this is the same network that called Bruce Jenner a "Hero" and gave him an award for putting on a dress and heels.

We can expect more of the same from them from here on out.

ESPN had harsh words for Cris Carter, for what he had to say about avoiding trouble with the law by having a 'fall guy', but he kept his job.

ESPN LINK

From Curt Shilling's twitter account:

"I understand and accept my suspension. 100% my fault. Bad choices have bad consequences and this was a bad decision in every way on my part."

Mr. Shilling should have stood his ground.

Because the lost revenue from the hordes of Muslims who wouldn't tune in to the Little League World Series....

B.S. It's ultimately about thought control.
I wish Schilling hadn't acquiesced.

I think the comparison is very scary..

German census 1939,, 79.4 Million
7% = 55+ million Nazis

World muzzy population 2011,, 1.57 Billion
5% = 785+ million muzzy extremists

Math errors by a factor of ten.

5.5 million Nazis and 78.5 million jihadis.
