Saturday’s Red Sox game was filled with emotion following the arrest of Boston Marathon bombing suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. David Ortiz concluded the pre-game celebration, ending with this statement - aired on live television:
This is our fucking city. And no one is going to dictate our freedom. Stay strong.
Despite the emotional origin of Ortiz’s statement, one had to wonder how the usually prude FCC would respond. To my surprise, they (correctly) turned a blind eye.
David Ortiz spoke from the heart at today's Red Sox game. I stand with Big Papi and the people of Boston - Julius
