Scott Piercy was dropped by three of his major sponsors after posting homophobic and offensive content to social media this week, according to Golf.com.

The apology just did you in Scott. These “people” dig in and never let up until your life is destroyed. Freedom of Speech is dead.

Both Scott and his former sponsors have exercised their free speech.

Free speech is not very well protected. I know private party and all that. Blah blah blah. Just celebrities should negotiate a clause to protect themselves in case they say something or retweet something that someone else is offended by.

He mentioned “Qanon, a far right conspiracy theory condemned by the FBI” which was one of the posts that lost the sponsors.

So what did he say? Was it so bad that it can’t even be quoted in the story?

Exact quote from article:

His first post referenced QAnon, a far-right conspiracy theory about “deep state” operations targeting President Donald Trump that has been condemned by the FBI.

I understand that Pete Buttigieg can’t get car insurance.

He’s been rear ended to many times.

Oh no I just lost my Titleist sponsorship
