(Reuters) – The PGA Tour said on Tuesday it will observe a moment of silence during each round of this week’s tournament in Fort Worth, Texas to honour George Floyd, a black American man who died after a white police officer knelt on his neck.
According to the PGA Tour, the moment of silence in its first tournament back since the COVID-19 shutdown will be observed during the 8:46 a.m. CT (1345 GMT) tee times throughout the July 11-14 Charles Schwab Challenge.
Eight minutes and 46 seconds is the length of time that Floyd was filmed pinned under the officer’s knee.
The PGA Tour said in a statement the moment of silence, prayer and reflection is part of its commitment to “amplifying the voices and efforts underway to end systemic issues of racial and social injustices impacting our country.”

There will be an accounting as to what this costs them. Internally of course.

I’m guessing the SJWs in the front office haven’t spoken to the sales people who are selling ads to advertisers.

I think ALL the advertisers which for PGA are investment firms, luxury cars, watches, banks, etc are totally on board with this BLM, PC, Woke, SJW crap. I believe Corporate America thinks that their prime demographics are now MOSTLY indoctrinated, Leftist stooges.

What can I say. I'm a snowflake, desperate for attention. Also, I think my posts are great. ;D ::)

In Anthony’s defense, I’ll say that President Trump retweets his own tweets fairly frequently. It is a way of emphasizing something the mainstream media continues to distort.

Which is one of the things I don't like about him. Oh wait..........

I know people on facebook that are saying that if we get rid of capitalism, then we can bring back jobs from overseas.
