jacqui. john. john: the controversy surrounding the los angeles dodgers continues as one of the largest catholic advocacy organizations is calling for a boycott after the decision to reinstate and honor the drag group that goes by the name sisters of perpetual indulgence at the team s pride night. your organization is encouraging a boycott of the l.a. dodgers. putting your money where your mouth is, a million dollars in an ad campaign to encourage it. why are you looking for a boycott here? well, we are looking for the dodgers to reconsider their decision to honor this vile anti-catholic hate group. these sisters, they are not sisters at all, they dress in drag, mock jesus on the cross, turned the cross into a sex prop, they have had condemn masses and dress up in mock religious sisters. catholic religious women who devote their lives to the church and the dodgers have awarded the organization a community
