The Giants manager boycotted the national anthem after recent mass shootings. He is somewhat of a rarity in baseball, a sport not noted for its 'progressive values', thankfully.
Born in Hollywood - a fact that explains a lot about this whackjob - the tattooed son of a piano teacher, Kapler loves Scotch and steak and wears a broken watch for god knows what reason. In 2014 he wrote a post on his lifestyle site extolling coconut oil as a moisturizer, mouthwash and masturbatory aid.
A 'diversity advocate' who hired MLB’s first female coach, Kapler has an image of Martin Luther King on his Twitter feed and posts as often about social justice as about balls and strikes.
“I’m often struck before our games by the lack of delivery of the promise of what our national anthem represents,” he wrote. “Every time I place my hand over my heart and remove my hat, I’m participating in a self-congratulatory glorification of the ONLY country where these mass shootings take place.” (PS, Gabe - you might want to check your facts on that before you start to spout)
Also, I'll bet the ranch he doesn't even know the back story of the anthem he loves to hate. The lyrics come from the "Defence of Fort M'Henry", a poem written on September 14, 1814, by 35-year-old lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by British ships of the Royal Navy in Baltimore Harbor during the Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812.
Key was inspired by the large U.S. flag, with 15 stars and 15 stripes, known as the Star-Spangled Banner, flying triumphantly above the fort during the U.S. victory.

The lib Manager of the Giants added: “I am not OK with the state of this country - when you’re dissatisfied with your country, you let it be known through protest.
Like I said - as if we give a fuck, Gabe. Shut up and play ball,
but either way, just shut up.
