Triggered: Forbes Writer Says He Was Frightened By White Fans Chanting During Braves Game

The Atlanta Braves are one of the most popular teams in professional baseball and they might be the most popular professional sports team in the southeast United States. They’ve got some pretty passionate fans and you’re probably familiar with the ‘war chant’ they do during home games.

Pretty bad ass, right?

Well, not if you’re a Forbes sports writer. Apparently, Terence Moore was frightened by the excited sports fans.

From Breitbart:

Forbes magazine contributor Terence Moore, was frightened by the Atlanta Braves fans when they broke out in their traditional tomahawk chop chant at a recent game. So frightened in fact, that he felt compelled to write a piece tsk-tsking Atlanta’s “mostly white fans” for their enthusiasm.

“It was uncomfortable, but it was fun,” he said of the tomahawk chop chant. “Then it was scary.”

It was the white faces that scared him:
I looked at the faces Sunday of those doing the chopping and the chanting, and I didn’t like what I saw. I had similar thoughts Monday, when the chopping and the chanting became an epidemic during the game. Along those lines, Braves officials continued their new tradition of dimming the lights to watch Braves fans chant as usual while ditching their foam-rubber tomahawks for smartphones turned to flashlight mode.

I mean, really? How is this happening with the Braves when baseball officials joined those of the Cleveland (ahem) Indians earlier this year to say 2018 will be the last season of Chief Wahoo, the (ahem) Tribe’s racist logo of 71 years? I graduated from Miami (Ohio) University, where the sports teams were the Redskins for a generation before they became the RedHawks during the latter 1990s. St. John’s went from Redmen to Red Storm, Marquette swapped Warriors for Golden Eagles, and other colleges and high schools have followed a similar path. Still, folks have shrugged over the Braves’ choppers and chanters for decades.

Can you imagine being that soft and that easily triggered? Good Lord.

The left likes to pretend that team names like the Braves and Redskins are racist when in fact they are the opposite. The Redskins and Braves and all those teams are celebrating brave Indian warriors and the mascots are usually handsome and tough looking dudes.

Also, don’t forget, Native Americans don’t care about these team names and chants.

From The Daily Caller:

In a shocking turn of events, a new Washington Post poll claims that 9 out of 10 Native Americans are not offended by the Washington Redskins’ team name.

The poll surveyed 504 Native Americans in every state and the District across a five-month period ending in April and found that responses to the issue “were broadly consistent regardless of age, income, education, political party or proximity to reservations.”
