@Cubs please tell me that you didn’t really kick a fan out for holding up a sign telling a Chicago police officer to RIP. pic.twitter.com/GCHw6FYdFz

Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik weighed in.
So, someone holds up assign in honor of a Chicago police officer shot and killed in the line of duty, and they’re escorted out of the stadium. But people can hold up signs, and players can wear shirts supporting #blacklivesmatter, and no one says a word. pic.twitter.com/G72K5GgZTm

Honoring fallen cops is not allowed?
