    I hate it when people say ? they really mean then apologize for it because it's not politically correct. If you're gonna open your mouth, stand by the ? that comes out of it.

    i agree, but

    being "sorry for anyone that i offended" isn't really an apology tho. It's more or less saying, "i'm sorry that you got upset at what I said, but i still meant what i said"

    Jason Collins is a genius, not a hero.

    Seriously, I'm pretty sure he just carved his face into the Mount Rushmore of the LGBT community by confirming what we already knew about some pro athletes on the low-key. My thing is, why now? Why not a year, two years, FIVE years ago?

    Part of this is cause my man's career wasn't ? , so this will - good intentions or no - ensure him some spotlight for YEARS to come...or until the ADD mainstream media forgets all about him and now shove the newest "human rights champion" into our faces all damn day.

    Look, no ? given about dude coming out. A vast majority of the world doesn't give ? either. We live in a "you do you, I'll do me, and we'll get along fine" world now. I will say good for him, but C'mon....you can't tell me that wasn't "strategic" either. That I WON'T tolerate...treating us (the public) like we're stupid and didn't see the come-up coming. ? that.

    But, good for dude all the same.

    i'm guessing SI had dirt on him, and they were gonna run a story about it regardless, but they let him leak it come out expose himself do whatever on his own terms

    I'm sorry, I ain't buyin the whole "he just doing this for attention" ish.

    That's like saying a Soldier crip-walked on a land-mine just so he could get a parade in his hometown and his momma could get a letter from Obama.

    ? don't add up, b.

    He's a phagg and he finally decided to come clean. Dat about it.

    I always found it funny how one minority(which im apart of) could look down on another minority, but complain when somebody turn they nose up @ you and yours. Let that ? breathe.

    Not homophobic but those are 2 completely different devils

    Please explain how...cause they not. If you black, you in the minority, if you ? , you in the minority, if you asain, you a minority, etc. People in the same group/classification should fight for what they believe in, even to a certain extent, support them. They the same things...Like a ? saying he would suck ? for his kids is the same as a chick saying it. Gross...but the same nontheless.

    "What you eat dont make me ? ...wheres the love?"

    1 Asians are a majority in the world...

    2 it dont matter who u ? ... I dont kno who anybody has slept with that hasn't told me or made it public..

    But as a black, white, Asian ect u cant "hide" that...

    3 EVERY race/demographic gets discriminated against in 1 way or another... Some just more then others... Being black has way worse consequences then being ? ...

    its annoys me and ? me of when people try to walk with the shield of religion to cover their hypocrisy.. anyone who evokes religion situationally .....especially....should get ? slapped..

    people using religion to justify their position against homosexuality isn't all that much different than people who use phrases from whatever moral code they choose to justify their own position for homosexuality ("let them live" "let them breathe" "don't worry about the next man" "everyone should be able to love who they want to love" etc...)


    you can poke holes (nh) in either side of the argument if you really want to

    Its not wise for to come out without signing on to a team, unless he's ok with that. Then the LGBT will accuse the league of discrimination or some other ? .

    you can poke holes (nh) in either side of the argument if you really want to

    its 1000% different YOUR "moral code guides YOU..religions* impact millions and act as a judge/jury/executioner based on whos wielding that sword(of course there are different interpretations of every religion ...so not everyone goes by the book on everything...more specifically their own frailties..or ? theyd be willing to accept...


    and fire and brimstone (pun intended;perceived or actual intolerance) is a hell of alot different than live and let live
