Why were Jack Posobiec and others protesting the Dodgers' Pride Night?
One of the biggest reasons behind the protest of this year's Pride Night by the LA Dodgers was the inclusion of the Sisters of Indulgence. They are an LGBTQ+ rights group that uses drag and religious imagery to protest the exclusion of their community by religious groups.
Notably, they were given the Community Hero Award by the Dodgers organization. Jack Posobiec was among the protesters.
Despite all the drama outside and inside the stadium, the MLB game between the LA Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants went forward and ended 7-5 in favor of the Giants.
Both teams are in close competition in the NL West division and the result of the next two games may well give one the edge over the other.
