Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III on Tuesday complained about the “tyranny of political correctness” currently holding Americans “hostage.” His comments, posted on his official Twitter account, come as some people are demanding the Redskins change their team name because of its “racist” meaning.
“In a land of freedom we are held hostage by the tyranny of political correctness,” Griffin tweeted. The comment may seem innocent, but it was enough to send the left into a frenzy, as noted on Twitchy.
Several of the criticisms hurled at Griffin seemingly accuse the QB of not knowing the definition of “tyranny.” Because they failed to understand the meaning behind his words, Griffin later felt compelled to explain to outraged Twitter users that “tyranny” has more than one meaning. He also followed up with a fitting quote following the angry response to his tweet: “If we speak..we say it the wrong way If we do not speak we are cowards….”
All that being said, Griffin also found a lot of support from other Twitter users.

Good for RG3.
Liking this guy more and more....
One minority says they are offended and the majority have to put up with the BS that minority is throwing.
It’s time somebody took up for the majority.
Good for him. The left deserves, and needs CONSTANT PUSHBACK.
A star is born.
The fellow is getting to close to the truth.
Liberals ARE The Tyrants.
“If we speak..we say it the wrong way If we do not speak we are cowards….”
Bears Repeating
RGIII Rocks!
He uttered an Inconvenient Truth...and the American Soviets freaked.
Sounds to me like this young man is following in the good Dr. Carson’s footsteps speaking about the disastrous effects of the PC police.
Good for RG3!
Bunch of B.S.
The Indian community needs to focus on Rez Indians drinking and doing Meth to death....and living in beat up leaning over trailers...And forget about the P.C. crap..!!
On the same day that the first queer athlete outs himself, RG3 steps up ... RG3 my new hero!
They’ve been busy making the Tsarnaevs into national heroes.
They want to send RG3 back to the Lieberal plantation tribal farm since he’s such a ‘corndog brotha’....
Yeah, “Eeeevil American Society made ‘em do it.”
A stellar young man from a fine family. He will have to deal with lesser characters in his life, unfortunately, but he will no doubt be able to handle their mewlings.
I really like this guy.
Maybe, the Redskins could change their team name to the Whiteskins.
Nah, keep the Redskins. Whiteskins would be racist, too.
Wouldn’t it?
Actually, I could care less what their team name is.
