For the first time in many years, I’m going to watch watch the NHL All-Star Game and it’s all because Kid Rock is booked to perform at the game in Tampa Bay this weekend.
Liberals are frothing mad because Kid Rock is one of the few in the entertainment industry who openly swings right-of-centre.
The most ironic crosschecking came via a sports website called SB Nation in an article with this unintentionally funny headline:
“Kid Rock’s NHL All-Star Game show undercuts hockey’s message of inclusiveness.”
The bit about inclusiveness refers to NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman’s statement last year that “the NHL family strives for diversity and inclusiveness.”
Wow! But, unless you’re talking about a group like Black Lives Matter, who doesn’t strive for diversity and inclusiveness these days?
The real problem for progressives is that Kid Rock is a Trump supporter, and a Colin Kaepernick critic, so for that, they think he should be excluded.
He has a huge fan base, and is a hockey fan himself who cheers for the Detroit Red Wings, so this weekend, I’ll tune into the ghastly sporting spectacle, not to watch something that resembles ringette but rather, to catch Kid Rock’s act.
And to see if any snowflakes in the cheap seats have a meltdown under the balmy Florida sun!
“Diverthity is our strength….a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian”. Guess who?
PAUL MCCULLOUGH….Bang on…can’t keep up…will need a daily update to that dictionary…whole new language that NOBODY understands.
We have a society of these little babies that always got their way and it is time to tell them to shut the heck up instead of giving in to their every whim.
To say he’s a racist is ridiculous. His GF is black, his kid is 1/2 black, his friends are mostly black, 3/4 of his band is black. He’s done a tremendous amount of community service for Detroit, dozens of charity concerts., more than any other celebrity I know of.
I’ve seen KR many times in concert and he has yet to show that he is a racist.. The Demi-craps hate him for his political (Republican) beliefs. We hope to spend some time with him again at the Strugis SD bike rally this August. What you see is what you get, he doesn’t put on any airs and shoots from the hip.
He is truly an “An American Badass”
I advise everyone to check out his music. It’s all red, white and blue rock. I’m an old fart and love his music.
