Luckily for the civilized world, Sam doesn't care what bigots want him to do and doesn't care about earning bigots' respect.

Hahaha, oh silverman, we know.

Hahahahaha oh man, SM2 thinks that being too stupid to other stand other people's posts validates him? That's so cute, but no buddy, it just makes you a ****** in addition to your existing bigotry and racism.

Gunching : The NFL needs good players so yes.

The NFL likes money too. Apparently Michael Sam can sell those jerseys

From the politics forum

But SM2 is crying all over this thread that nobody stopped to ask him what he would like to see on television before all of this happened. Poor baby

Silver_man is a poor caricature of himself at this point.

Somebody make the above avatar sized please?

how does this topic get so much attention,

our fellow humans are starving in North Korea(!)

like the anti Brunei hollywood protesters who actually think its ok to tell other countries how to live. WHAT ABOUT NORTH KOREA(!)

I was sort of hoping he didnt get drafted when it started getting late so that Sam could pick his own spot post draft, but seeing the homophobes so rustled this morning is really good stuff.

Who says they are telling Brunei how to live?

they suspended the man simply for saying "Horrible", he could have said that irt a man and a woman kissing. That is downright pathetic.

This is dumb because we can care about more than one thing at once, but I don't really have a problem with Americans focusing on American problems before others.

Miami Dolphins defensive back Don Jones has been fined an undisclosed amount by the team following an incident on Saturday where he sent out a tweet critical of Michael Sam. Jones has also been banned from team activities until he undergoes sensitivity training

Sensitivity training? Thats not right.

Don Jones should sue the NFL.

Haven't you heard that North Korea is an atheist nation? The horrors of atheism can not simply be swiped under the rug.

Silver_Man2 only know the names of the quarterbacks

Hmm...

Between this and the Sterling thing people seem to be having real trouble grasping the difference between the consequences a person can face from the government and what they can face from the private organization with whom they've entered into an agreement.

@forchar, silver

It doesn't mean you're homophobic because you don't like to see two men kissing. I might not think aboriginal women or red heads are attractive for example, but that doesn't make me racist against them. But you know what I would do about that? I would shut the **** up about it. I don't go around voicing my opinion on my particular tastes along racial or other lines because that is offensive.

You know what else I don't do? I don't make a yucky face if I see quadriplegic drool on themselves. I don't don't shout "what the **** are you saying, speak up!" to someone with cerebral palsy. In other words I just respect people and treat people how I would want to be treated.

Be an adult. If you find something distasteful just shut the **** up and look away and don't open your fckn mouth.

Of course your talking about Conservative Jews and Muslims, and possibly more wrt the text I highlighted. Lets discuss something here, imagine if a nice couple in Iran was watching the NFL draft, how would they react to the kissing of the two men? How would a conservative Jewish couple in Israel react to seeing these two men kiss?

Not to mention homosexuality is illegal in almost 80 countries around the world(some of which are allies of the USA). If we actually look at things from a non religious viewpoint(homosexuality is illegal in North Korea btw), one must simply realize that humans often disagree with each other. Throughout history, sexual relations have varied, there was a time when humans had sex with animals due to the belief that it would increase their abilities in Battle.

So, is showing these two men kissing on national TV the best way to communicate with folks around the world who may disagree with our views?????

I think there is a much better way to go at things when it comes to getting others to accept something. Its a great challenge, but also, its interesting to note how the human race has viewed sexuality over the years.

hahahaohwow

Wow thekid345, that was just total nonsense.

Kid is a sneaky good troll.
