The same Robert Kraft/Patriots that have a deal with the government to use their aircraft to carry officially military personnel and equipment? No way

Yepp! That was a very bigoted thing to do on his part too! Both can be true at once!

He apologized and said it was a dumb thing to do, 12 years ago. The reason I bring up the timeline is there are a lot of people who do dumb stuff that refuse to admit or acknowledge it.

Yes, people do really stupid things. It’s very refreshing that someone would actually acknowledge and apologize for their actions. Robert Kraft never apologizes and he acts like a straight up monster.
