The radical homosexual free speech police will no doubt be livid when they watch or hear what NFL legend and NFL Network commentator Deion Sanders said about the much ballyhooed Michael Sam, considered the first openly homosexual player in the National Football League (until he was cut by two different teams).
You know what, I reached out to Michael Sam because I have a cousin whos gay. Hes been gay ever since we were kids. And, Im not saying I condone it, but I dont condemn it, Sanders said when asked about Sams latest release, from the Dallas Cowboys practice squad, on Larry King NOW on ORA.tv. on Thursday.
I dont love what he do, but I love him as a man, Sanders explained. I just wanted him to understand the burden and the weight hes carrying, the man known as Prime Time told Larry King.
You dont think its a choice, though, do you? King the former CNN host asked Sanders.
It could be, Sanders answered to the displeasure of King.
I dont know why, who would choose it? King argued.
Who wouldnt? said Sanders, and then continued saying, Well, we would get into God did this and God did that. The God I know dont make mistakes.
Previous candid comments from those who believe in the Bible or traditional marriage between one man and one woman, have gotten people fired, or at least bullied into an apologize by leftist homosexual activists.
Time will tell if the Gaystapo will similarly attack Sanders for sincerely speaking his mind.
ROTFL. This is a no brainer because Sam is a twofer - black AND gay. The PC crowd will be all over it. I'm not saying Sanders should be canned for making dumb remarks but I wouldn't be surprised if it happened.
On the one hand I don’t support the firing of people for expressing their personal views on social matters, and especially not any social activist agendas to do so, yet on the other hand Constitutional “freedom of speech” is really a mandate against government action blocking our free speech and it is not a legal sanction against us having some say about what we might characterize as “conduct” of those who work for us.
But lastly, I am of the opinion on free speech that usually defends it, whether I agree with what is said or not. If everyone took that attitude and quit trying to silence opinions they disagree with, it would be a socially much more peaceful nation.
Sanders was totally reasonable and non-abusive in his comments (I didn’t consider them criticism), including “It could be [in some cases].” in response to is being gay a choice. It’s his opinion supported by facts. It is documented that some gays have moved from the lifestyle to a heterosexual orientation.
I have an issue with Cam. He has great athletic ability no doubt. But I don’t dig the whole Superman thing he does. You don’t see this stuff out of great players. Brady, the Mannings, Breeze. Football is a team game and the QB is really only as good as the guy’s up front protecting them.
I think Cam when he scores should be smacking the Guards and Tackles on their butts, not puffing out his chest.
Guy’s like john Riggins never had to emphasize to the crowd or the press how great they were.
I think a little more humility would go a long way for Cam. Nothing says “ greatness “ like winning. Cam needs to concentrate on the team winning.
then why are there any diseases at all?
“wymyn”....thusly petlled to avoid the integration of the word MEN....Im thinking
there was a columist in hyper “ liberal” San Francisco wjho once wrote a piece about the problematic use of the word PERSON....in that It included the MALE...term...SON...and the feminists might soon be offended by that...
Maybe he’ll mature as time goes on. Hey, as a Panthers fan, I take what I can get. *sigh*
I’m watching the Seahawks beat up my Giants. Russell Wilson just ran in for a score and handed the ball to the Ref, he’s all class and a young man that all young people can look up to. He was raised right.
I was flipping through channels and paused to rest my thumb and some woman host was badgering a man, yelling and insulting and TELLING him that he had to be gay because his twin was. Must have been on LOGO or BRAVO.
seriously.
I don’t understand why “they”(homosexuals)can’t accept the same rights we all have under the Constitution.

I found out Larry King was still on TV through that razor commercial. I’ve yet to see proof and “ORA.tv” doesn’t help.
bump
“Person” < Latin “persona” < Etruscan “phersuna” < Greek “prosopon” = “theatrical mask” < “pros”, “in front of” + “ops” = “face”.
Oh Neon Deon, you have stepped in it now!
LOL!
