It’s a tragedy every time a LGBT youth commits suicide due to bigotry.
It’s a tragedy when wars happen because of dogma.
It’s a tragedy that theocrats are fighting tooth and nail to control
America.
It’s a tragedy that people have to be afraid of your “religion of love”.
It’s a tragedy that human rights and dignity are stripped because of an old
book.
It’s truly a tragedy that people like Klingenschmitt are taken seriously.
“Dr. Chaps” lol
Oh NO! You mean sports players are people with their own goals and lives
and not merely your personal entertainment toys?
So, it’s a “tragedy” when some one decides to quit hiding from ass wipes
like this Klingerball creep. Wow, I’m insensitive, I guess. I just can’t
see the tragedy of someone deciding to be themselves, to live their own
real life. I’m just a brute who just can’t feel the tragedy in that.
This kind of hatred is genuinely sick and it pleases me greatly that so
many young people are leaving these fundy churches and their religious
garbage because they can’t stomach the insane hatreds of their nutball
elders. One of the best decisions of their lives will be walking away from
the madness.
Another day, another batch of ignorant asshats losing their minds over
something that is none of their business.
Why is it that conservatives think they can live in the past? It must be
reluctance to leave the mother’s breast and fend for themselves, although
they’d be the first to start ranting about self-reliance.
“Coming out” is an issue of honesty, it’s about declaring openly who you
are, not about self-serving bullshit like these idiots spew.
Everyone knows it is much better to live your life as a lie, and dedicate
yourself to a loveless marriage, ruining the your and your wifes lives.
We all get one life for such a brief time, it is a shame to spend that
short time in a lie.
Confused point, after confused point, after confused point:
1. “…first *so called* openly gay athlete…” HUh? What’s the *so called*for?
2. “…is he [coming out] for the football league or himself…” Uh,
himself? Duh!
3. “…some teams don’t want the media circus…” More like some teams
don’t want gay players on their team.
4. “…this was ultimately about self…” Lol. Yes, if your gay, think of
your team and stay in the closet. lol Reminds of 1940s whites in the south
who thought black activists were disturbing the peace, being selfish, and
not thinking of the stability of the whole community by wanting equal
rights. Don’t rock the boat huh?
5. “…we are now celebrating that a man says I am now attracted to other
men…” Uh, no. We are celebrating the courage it takes to enter groups as
an openly gay man that have been and still are extremely prejudiced towards
gay people. Very similar to Jackie Robinson in fact. Society didn’t
celebrate Jackie Robinson because he was Black… It was the courage of the
action.
6. “…He doesn’t want to be thought of as a gay NFL player. It’s too late.
He made that bed…” So what if Jackie Robinson said I don’t want to be
thought of as a black baseball player, just a baseball player? Tell him
it’s too late, he made that bed by wanting to play in integrated sports
with white players? lol I think Michael Sam meant that he wanted people to
eventually accept that he’s gay and have it no longer matter to them.
7. “…it’s a tragedy every time someone comes out of the closet…” For
you? For who? For the person coming out I think it would probably be like
seeing the Sun for the first time.
These two guys are so brainwashed by religion and tradition that they can’t
even think straight.
The funny thing is that God probably hates most people on Earth, including
these people.
We’re not celebrating someone for coming out of the closet we’re
celebrating the guts that they had to do it. Especially being a black male
in a sport like football? Thats courage.
these religious anti-gay bigots are disgusting human beings.
Is it me, or is klingenschmitt getting fatter with each new video? I am
personally hoping that he doesn’t get elected.
It’s a tragedy every time you open your mouth Klinger “piece of shit”.
Along with Dr. Assless Chaps.
No. An actual tragedy is someone driven to suicide by fear of homophobic
reactions from those around them if they come out of the closet. Such as
for example, the bullying homophobic cowards in this video, who would have
all gay people stay in the closet because it’s more convenient for them to
have a sexual minority they dislike vanish from view rather than make
waves. The thing that all bullies fear the most of course, is their
victims standing up for themselves as a group – which is why these
predatory goons here fear whenever another person comes out of the closet
in defiance of their piddling bullshit.
We’re celebrating that a man is brave enough to be open about who and what
he is, instead of hiding it for fear of persecution and ridicule by
assholes like you and Klingon-shit!!
The real tragedy is that bigoted dickheads like you and your ilk are still
clinging on to bronze age fairy tales!!
The other guy seems to be implying that it is bad to ever do anything in
your own self interest.
Lol 0:26 “For Prayer Call 1-866-*OBEY GOD*”
What is truly tragic is that bigoted, hateful, ignorant, self-righteous,
dangerously delusioned, dishonest, thoroughly dishonourable (you are a
disgrace to the military uniform you once wore, Gordie), self-serving
failures like these 2 men still draw breath.
People like this are a cancer on the human race. Shame on them for trying
to spread their bigoted ignorant views! If anyone is going to hell it’s
people like this who disguise their hatred and discrimination with holy
words.
If the sort of things people like Klingenschmitt, Lively & co say and do
are examples of God’s love then I’d hate to see what they do when God’s
pissed.
These assholes are a bunch of collective narcissists. They cannot
understand anything outside of their narrow definition of the world.
actually it’s a tragedy that this guys last name looks very close to
“cling-on shit”
More and more will be coming out….including Klingschmiddt.
“… and was going to determine how it would get out.” Dr. Chaps should
take note.
It’s a tragedy that petty hate filled men won’t stop using religion to
justify all manner of bigotry. It’s an even bigger tragedy that so many
people agree with them.
Boo………………………………………………………………………….hoo!
Every time a gay “comes out” these people hate it because it is a
demonstration of honesty about the person that you really are, and once it
becomes good to be that honest, people may even be able to come out of that
other, darker, and more dangerous closet.
How long will it be before people in key positions will be able to come out
as *Atheists*. And once that starts to happen how long will the power base
of these self appointed “guardians of morality” last?
Since when was being ‘honest’ about yourself is considered selfish? These
guys are dumb as a box of rocks.
Is it me or is Klingenschmitt really putting on some weight? If he keeps
it up he will look like John Hagee by the end of the year.
They were all over Tebow’s cock when he was talking about how religion had
a big influence in his life. He was a hero to them for not being afraid to
talk about Jesus in a country where the majority of people are Christian.
Michael Sam comes out and it’s a tragedy? GTFO.
It’s a Tragedy every time someone comes out of the Closet? Authenticity is
tragic? Living life authentically, an affront to these ‘Christians’ of some
sort I presume, but who knows. Every time someone comes out of the Closet,
Life on our Shared Planet, Improves – for Everyone.
It’s going to be comedy when you come out of the closet, Gordon. Pure
comedy gold.
They seem oblivious to the reason why people have to come out in the first
place and why it’s so difficult. It’s difficult because of the judgmental,
insulting, and discriminatory way people who come out are treated.
its a tragedy…for bigots
Lol at the number that appears at the bottom. 1-866-OBEY-GOD
When will we as the people of a loving and compassionate G-D understand his
letter of love to us?
At issue here is the absolutism, arrogance and the lack of understanding
that Scripture was written in various historically differing cultural
context’s and has been thoughout the centuries interpreted into many
translations through the eyes and the culture, bias, prejudices of the
translators. The original languages provided choices in the interpretive
process and those choices determined the message told. Even if G-d wanted
us to judge others sincerity and walk with Him, which i am certain he
doesn’t want, we should at least before condemning an entire Christian and
non-Christian minority be absolutely skeptical of our absolutism and with
much humility be certain of what scripture was really addressing within the
culture at the time it was written and the effects this culture had on the
Church that required it being addressed. But thousands of years of
tradition, discrimination, demonizing and assuming has hardened the heart,
Jesus clearly addressed this occurrence in his statement to the
self-righteous religious leaders that interpreted scripture much
differently than Jesus, you cannot put new wine in old wine skins because
the rigidity and lack of flexibility of the latter would bring certain
rupture, clearly we must remove the veils of tradition and shallow
prejudiced teachings from our eyes, minds, hearts and soften our spirits
and revisit G-ds word with him leading the way, maybe if we pray hard
enough for truth rather than justification we will find what G-d wants us
too and at least discover we aren’t so sure any more of our conclusions and
must trust the Lord and embrace Grace, Mercy and Love. Using twisted out of
context Scripture to attribute perverted behavior, elicit fear and hate
towards the Gay community is shameful and anything but Christian. any
support of twisted scripture that discriminates is contrary to the
teachings of Jesus and millions of Christians and other religious
communities disagree with the radical right and its agenda. We have seen
the church through the centuries take this stand against others based on
politics and the same faulty exegesis and bigotry, and its shameful
consequences still haunt us. The American rightwing evangelicals that
spread this cancer here and to other countries are the very Anti-Christ
they fear.
Man Klingenschmitt has really let himself go. Isn’t gluttony a sin?
Sounds like sister needs her coochie cleansed, cause girl has some serious
sand in her vagina. That’s the true tragedy. Won’t someone please think of
the coochies?
It’s a tragedy every time he opens his mouth.
That turkey neck and that nickanem dr. Chaps is the tragedy
Of course we celebrate that because saying those words, “I am gay” has
ruined gay folks’ lives and led to beatings and exile and suicide and hate
crimes and murder and a whole host of horrible things here in the great and
mighty US of A…so Yes! Let’s celebrate it because of the bravery it
unfortunately still takes to come out in the climate that this athlete did,
let’s shine the light to everyone else as loud as we can that it is
okay!!!! For men who think of themselves as scholarly, these
fundamentalists are rather small minded.
*Flingenshit*…..doing what he does best. Living up to his namesake.
i am proud alcoholic yeeeee
Matt H and Peter Piggot. If you’re reading this we just want to say
FUCK YOU!
Anyone got an over/under on how many kids this guy has diddled?
Yes it is a tragedy for them. They can’t use their fear mongering to guilt
people into self-hatred anymore. Shame. Look at what America has become.
“Dr Chaps” does look like a muppet from side on right? Am I right?
Its a tragedy whenever you hear a Right-Winger speak.
