Anthem protesters are certainly having their share of off field issues. Bruce Maxwell is just the latest. Anthem protester, Michael Bennett, earlier in the season got questioned by police. He then went on a smear campaign against the Las Vegas Police Department despite how favorably they treated him. Seriously, how many people can say the police googled who they were on their phones because they traveled without an ID on them. LVPD demanded an apology after outing him as a liar, but with the shooting, they have since been given much more pressing matters to attend.
After drawing attention to himself by being the MLB’s first and only anthem protester, Bruce Maxwell has found himself having an eventful offseason. So far he’s claimed to have been denied service at a restaurant, for protesting. The restaurant in question has denied it, so the story is a bit muddy. The waiter says that it started due to a dispute about being carded for ordering alcohol. Maxwell says it’s because he’s a Trump supporter. In regards to that, I’m going to give the waiter the benefit of the doubt because how many people would recognize Bruce Maxwell if he walked up to them. He’s a minor figure in the MLB. So he’s likely lying.
Furthermore, Maxwell has been arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and disorderly conduct.
Perspectives
Maxwell’s arrest on gun charge leaves his baseball future uncertain
Penalties for a Class 3 felony in the state can include anywhere from five to 15 years in prison plus a fine up to $150,000, though a number of factors are taken into consideration that could reduce sentencing, including whether the defendant has any prior criminal history. Right now, it’s not even clear if the charges will be carried forth against Maxwell toward a potential trial, and if so, whether he could plea bargain to lesser charges.
Aside from his legal issues, it stands to reason that Maxwell could face separate punishment from Major League Baseball over his arrest. At the very least, this latest incident will reflect poorly on Maxwell’s reputation.

Bruce Maxwell, the only Major League Baseball player to kneel during the national anthem this season, has been arrested on a gun charge.
With food shortages coming, it’s a smart move to order organic, cooked, freeze-dried chicken for long-term storage from Prepper Organics.
The Oakland Athletics catcher allegedly pointed a gun at a female food delivery person in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Bruce Maxwell, the only MLB player to kneel for the Anthem got arrested for pointin’ a gun at a woman. At least he stood for his mugshot. ??

That Bruce Maxwell case sounds fishy. Remember when a white female made the same bogus "he pulled a gun on me" charge against Chris Brown?

Couldn’t resist adding this stupidity. No reports about alleged victim being white, not that race has anything to do with this.
Final Thoughts
Just a reminder, Maxwell is accused and is innocent until proven guilty. We don’t get to choose when this principle applies. Hopefully justice prevails. And if he is guilty, hopefully he gets no favorable treatment for being a ball player. I would like to delve deeper into Mr. Trump Jr.’s tweet. He’s not wrong. Bruce Maxwell is more than certainly the “Resistance” given his anti-Trump stance and recent history of racebaiting. With the exception of Nasheed, no liberals are really sticking their neck out for him, yet.
The crime Maxwell is accused of is above average thuggery. This certainly isn’t the behavior expected from someone protesting police brutality. One would think, or hope, that a person protesting police brutality would do so out of a high regard for human life and humane treatment. These people certainly wouldn’t point guns at delivery girls who took too long to get there (or whatever the reason that led to the incident). However, we don’t need this incident to show how self entitled and racists Maxwell is. If convicted, it would be another layer on the Smith Island Cake to show that the Anthem protest movement is all about the special treatment that BLM is after.
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
