Free Speech Silenced at Bengals Game
Paul Daugherty brings us news that two signs at the Bengals-Saints game on Saturday critical of the team's decision to resign Chris Henry were removed by authorities. As the Doc writes:
The best attack the Bengals evidenced was against a couple anti-Mike Brown banners hanging brazenly from opposite ends of the taxpayer-funded stadium.
One read, "Hey Mike, Surely You Can't Be Serious. Please Tell Me Chris Found Jesus." The other offered, "Fool me once shame on you. Fool me six times, shame on Mike Brown." Each was removed by the middle of the first quarter. Let freedom ring.
In my view, Hamilton County taxpayers are PAYING for the stadium and should have every right to criticize the team. Although Mike Brown, with his history of implementing speech codes on players, certainly disagrees.
So, I say to you heroes who will not sit down and let Mike Brown continue to destroy our Bengals, do not let them silence you. Continue to agitate and speak out about the bonehead decisions that the management has made that have led to zero playoff wins in 17 years. The only way the Bengals will ever change is if enough of us speak out and demand change.
