It’s pretty clear they’re using it as a cover for bigotry. The sad part is that many media outlets are buying it hook, line, and sinker.

Very clearly. For them to use russian law to hide behind is pretty cowardly.

But this is also a team that hid some homosexual abuse from an employee to a number of players. Kind of ironic, when you think about it- don't do anything about it when it's illegal abuse, but also don't want to celebrate their fans when they are just doing it for love.
 
$10 says the NHL league office has already put out a memo to teams “suggesting” they don’t have a Pride game in future seasons.

Pretty sure we all knew that, especially after the sexual abuse stories, but the NHL kept trying to push that marketing gimmick.

It was always a pretty bold statement for a sport that has always been fairly racist and bigoted

Or just cite to the old testament reasoning that a rainbow is a sign of God's covenant to never again flood the entire earth. Funny how the Christians in these things forget that a rainbow is supposedly a sign of God's love for us all.

Almost all have some stupid tribal design or Punisher skull tattoo somewhere, so you can usually box these people up pretty good with Leviticus 19:28.

“You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves.”
