"Chapter 272: Section 98. Discrimination in admission to, or treatment in, place of public accommodation; punishment; forfeiture; civil right
Section 98. Whoever makes any distinction...on account of race, color...relative to...his treatment in any place of public...amusement, as defined in section ninety-two A, or whoever aids or incites such...discrimination...shall be punished by a fine of not more than twenty-five hundred dollars or by imprisonment for not more than one year, or both, and shall be liable to any person aggrieved...All persons shall have the right to the full and equal...advantages...of any place of public...amusement subject only to the conditions and limitations established by law and applicable to all persons. This right is recognized and declared to be a civil right."
Forget Adam Jones. What about African Americans who may be attending the game and sitting within earshot of these assholes? What if they're with their kids?
What if they were yelling at Gabe Kapler:, "Fuck you - you Kike Bastard"...
Analogies don't matter. There's simply no place for this shit in any public venue (albeit it appears a few posters here would fine with this behavior at their home).
There are thousands of cell phones at Fenway. Record these guys and then either punch them in the face and/or get a security guard to toss them. Then present evidence for prosecution.
