Missouri Right to Life claims the Royals ‘discriminated’ against it

I didn’t make it to Friday night’s Royals-Cardinals game, but I’ve been wondering about the fallout from the unofficially named “Right to Life night at the K.”

A week and a half ago, I wrote about the objections of  season-ticket holder Scott Hartley (who just happens to be Missouri state Sen. Jolie Justus’ district aide) to an ad on the Royals’ Web site urging fans to “come cheer on the Royals as they play the St. Louis Cardinals and support the Missouri Right to Life.”

After the story appeared online for this “liberal Kansas City tabloid,” the Royals removed the “Missouri Right to Life” link for tickets. That didn’t sit well with Missouri Right to Life.

A story appearing on the Christian Web site Baptist Press on Friday said Missouri Right to Life felt like the Royals had discriminated against them by removing their link.
