That line is getting tossed out a lot, but it's not really an adequate rebuttal. Free speech is most certainly being curbed. If someone has to face "consequences" for taking a political/opinion stand that nearly 1/2 of Americans agree with, then speech is being taken by force. Does the NFL really believe fans will start boycotting their product if teams don't toe the PC line?

There's no government legislation that is making players get fined. Hell, there's not yet any LEAGUE rules causing fines for this. The Dolphins acted alone. Therefore, this is an example of free citizens coming together to decide what speech is socially acceptable and useful. Free speech isn't being taken by force, its being decided on by consensus. |

Look.. who cares if he is gay as long as he can play... I get this..
But... I cringed and I admit it.. I also cringe when a real ugly girl gets kissed (I know I am bad) I cringe when I see that Andrew Zimmer dude eats Hog Nuts or bugs I also cringe when I see two men suck face on tv... Do I cringe when two females do it? No I don't as much, but that's because I am not female and can only relate to the good parts for me of sucking face with a woman... I would like to see the TRUE feelings of full grown heterosexual men on seeing two dudes suck face on tv, I bet most cringed when they saw it but just won't admit it. My nephew is gay, I truly believe the kid was born gay, he acted feminine and not boyish from a very young age and he is now as flamboyant as I have ever seen.. Do I approve of his lifestyle- No but it's his business, who cares If that means I am a Bigot then so be it |

Jones could fight the suspension stating that what he meant in the Twitter was about Michael Sams sucks as a player, not his sexual orientation. |

Or he could just do what the Duck Dynasty guy did and make a stand on freedom of expression grounds which Americans by and large still support, even if their pathetic elites don't.

I cringed too but that is a problem with me, not him.
I'm old and crusty, so change is painful. I don't find guys 'hot' so seeing two 'not hot' beings kiss is not pleasant. But like i said, that is strictly on me and i need to get over it.
