It happened. Front row of 200 level just above was yelling stupid things about throwing fried chicken at Jones. Same guys were things yelled at Kim the final game of the season from the same section (which were extra ignorant as they were Chinese comments).

 

That's really too bad. The other fans in that area need to get on them for that, make them keep it to non-racial insults...

It's too bad people don't have the nuts to stand up to douche canoes like those types.

You can try to shine a light on me for being a bad guy but yes...my limit is 2-3 drinks when i say drinks...i drink beer...if majority can say they will not drive after drinking 2-3 beers well they are liars IMO. [\b]

 

p.s i don't go into a pub and pound 2-3 beers. I am talking about a normal social place where you have 2-3 beers over the course of 2-3 hours..

 

Ok, but that still doesn't make it right.

I'll have a beer or two (max) and drive home. I don't see a problem with that. It's not like this guy is funnelling three beer and driving home.

Self driving cars can't get here soon enough.

 

I'd much rather be in control of my own life than hand it over to a robot.

Well if you have a license and drink...most likely yes...I am 6'4 and 240 pounds healthy guy...I drank 3 beers and waited 1 hour...blew a test buddy of mine is a cop down the street I wasn't driving....technically speaking i was impaired.

 

Whenever I have to drive i have 2-3 drinks at the most...when I was young I had more...

 

Majority has done this yes

 

LOL majority eh

Moron got hit with mischief. Had he not left the scene or turned himself earlier before his identity was outed he would have had a better chance at possibly working out a deal to drop the case. Instead he'll have a criminal record (mischief is on the criminal code iirc?) and publicly shamed. Be smart kids

I can't wait until every car has a breathlizer that if it fails the self driving vi kicks in

Well I have been to my share of games..I would say majority of the time I hear something that is racist...However I have never been to a game outside of Toronto...I assume it happens all of the time? ( sadly )

 

Sports lends itself to homophobia, racism and misogyny. Makes me sad...but I've learned to hate most sports fans.

Plenty of sober people do idiotic things while driving too, such as chasing Pokemon, playing on their phone, etc. I'd be a little hesitant to trust the self driving car prototypes at highway speeds just yet, but at slower speeds in the city I think it would be fantastic.

Baseball fans are calling for the Blue Jays to do more after some spectators were heard shouting racial slurs at Tuesday's wild-card game in Toronto against the Baltimore Orioles.

 

CBC sports reporter Scott Regehr was among those who heard comments, which were directed at Orioles players and coaching staff.

 

Blue Jays fans at their worst for biggest games

Regehr said he heard spectators taunting first-base coach Wayne Kirby, who is African-American, yelling that he should "go get some more fried chicken."

 

So apparently the term "racial slur" has lost all meaning. When did that happen?

Posted
LOL majority eh

 

Yes majority of drivers had 2-3 beers in the course of 2-3 hours before driving...you don't agree with that?

 

Anyways fine the guy $1,000 - $2,000 put the beer in cups and call it a day....does it really need any more attention? if so...you guys should read more

I honestly believe if he had stayed at his seat, he may have just been ejected from the stadium by security. Most of the time when there is an issue at the dome security deals with it and the police only step in if is escatulates. Plus you would have avoided people looking at and dissecting video and photos for the last 48 hours.

Completely agree with you, i meant as in an additional feature, I don't think all cars will be self driving only, but an option between the two (kind of how Tesla's autopilot is right now). But if you are above the legal limit it should drive you home, that way no need for a taxi either...

 

oh no, watch taxi drivers protest self driving cars! "Tesla is ISIS!" LOL

lol are you kidding me, that's all they could come up with? Also I think calling that a racial slur is insulting for people who actually had to endure being victims of racism and racial verbal abuse.

I think I read something about Uber testing some self driving cars. Taxi drivers will REALLY love that.

Don't get me wrong when my buddy comes over sometimes I joke with watermelon and chicken but we have been friends for years and he gets me back...It's not harmful in the right context

That's not a racial slur. That's a horrible attempt to be insulting using stereotypes. Hitting someone with a beer can is assault

Aside from being terribly unfunny, not sure what's so insulting about fried chicken. These people are making it sound like fans were chucking bananas at Jones and telling him to go back to Africa.

LOL so you try and point at me for having 2! in a course of 2-3 hours but 1 is okay?

 

I promise i am bigger and in more shape then you...by the way that counts...

Easy. Hitting someone with an open beer can really shouldn't be considered assault. Pussification at it's finest.

Didn't you know? One is okay but two IS NOT.

Wayne Kirby is also overweight. How do you know that it wasn't just a fat joke? Fat people like fried chicken too.

 

Wait...that would make it "fat shaming" though; which I think is as bad as racism these days?

Right sorry, not assault like the crime, I mean the attempt to harm is different.

It's not "ok" in that you're an ******* for the intent and for being what should be criminally unfunny, but if someone is honestly insulted because black people like fried chicken, they should probably try living in a bubble.
