DRAFT Pick 159, Patriots Select K Justin Rohrwasser

[Joey007]

You can support sensible civil liberties and limitations on government without joining a far-right militia group and tattooing their emblem on your arm.

Based on Girardi’s tweet, doesn’t sound like Justin supports the actual group.

You need to chill out. Multiple posts from you about this. I'm not far right but there's a difference between a pro-gun group and whatever else you're insinuating. I see people losing their minds on twitter calling him a n-zi just for being in a pro-gun group.... did your head explode when Tom Brady went to GW Bush's state of the union address , or when Kraft endorsed Trump ??

.

Politics and worldviews fall on a spectrum, so the notion that being conservative, supporting gun rights, and tattooing the emblem of a far-right militia on your arm are all one of the same isn't really true.

I'm not a big paramilitary guy, and there's a solid chance this guy and I wouldn't see eye to eye, but I'm not going to lose sleep over it. Dude has a big leg, and him being a bit of a crank could actually help. Big game pitchers in baseball are often strange, anti-social, reactionary, or all of the above. A kicker with an SS officer last name and opinions that don't go over well on The View is a guy who will drill a 57 yarder to beat Buffalo in December because he's simply out of f*cks to give.

Good point. As an example of a big game pitcher, Curt Schilling was weird outside of baseball perhaps but as clutch as they come in big games. You need a guy with supreme confidence who doesn't get rattled by 70,000 boos.

Love to know who the media **** was that b#tched about his tats...bet if his tats said refugees welcome or my body my choice or occupy wall street not ONE member of the media would question him

If someone who was drafted had those tattoos, there would be a bunch of people making fun of him, and would be something that he had to have seen coming. Exactly like the situation he's in now. It'll be ok buddy.

I mean, the guy has the emblem of the actual group tattooed on his arm, so I guess it's up to each of us individually to make of that what we will.

The difference is, some would make fun of him but I don’t think anyone would say he’d be released by next weekend like that tool said in here.

Pretty much my position as well. Can he kick and perform when needed is about all I need to know. What causes he is passionate about; as long as he advocates for them within the law, is nothing more than noise.

I say this as someone lives in the South and has a full sleeve tattoo with Hindu, Buddhist and ancient Javanese imagery in it. I love it when a sweet old lady comes up to me in public and feels compelled to tell me that tattoos aren't very Christian. The slow motion mind explosion that comes when I inform them that I am not a Christian, and further, what the imagery in the tattoo means, is priceless.

Fondness as well for Josh Beckett, who had contempt for people and conditioning, but not nearly as much as the contempt he had for whoever stepped in the box against him in the playoffs. He choked out the Yankees in Game 6 with the Marlins and looked like he wanted to fight everyone in the stadium.

Again I never heard of this group before. And the kid already backed away. But just to be clear, it sounds like the group title honors the 3% of American revolution colonists who fought the British. That screams American revolution Patriot, if taken at face value.

Again, not a group I’d exactly support. But if it’s a group that’s only extreme for their views on gun rights. Then really I’m not going to get bent out of shape.

People already trying to take down a guy they didn’t hear about until over an hour ago. I hate this culture so much.

Hit reply instead of Edit.

There's not a single left wing style tattoo that would result in similar social pressure/backlash.

Something as obscure as a tyr rune or sonnenrad tattoo would still have just as many people b*tching.

There were plenty of people on here calling Devin McCourty and other Pats players names for kneeling/doing the power fist (I can't remember which one they did), and a few who thought they should be released. I had one particularly goofy crank spend weeks sending me DMs about how McCourty was a Cultural Marxist and a traitor. It'll all be ok, man.

Unfortunately, when you pick and stick an icon that was a personal favorite of Heinrich Himmler and the SS, that's bound to happen.

In what context and to whom is the Sonnenrad "obscure"?
