Hardaway : Proof bigots come in all shapes and colors

So NBA start Tim Hardaway decided to voice his opinion on the homosexual community. He used his right of free speech to be heard loud and clear over the airwaves. It was his choice, you know, God Bless America and all that jazz. Hardaway has a right to his opinion, no matter how deluded and stupid it is.

But guess what Timmy and fans of Timmy, people have the right to think of you as a loud mouthed bigot--and call you on it. Works both ways. So it really shouldn't be such a shocker that millions of people are slamming doors in this guy's face. It's their right. Their choice to make.

And that apology is a cop-out. Hardaway is seeing his sponsors flying out the window. You know, that whole free speech and choice thing again. Companies don't want to be bound to an arrogant loudmouth hatemonger--so they've chosen to drop him like the sack of hot poo he is.

God Bless America.

As to Timmy's fans, who are mostly men: News flash! Isn't it about time you guys stop thinking with the little head and start using the big one? You know, the one that comes with a brain capable of cognitive thought and reasoning? Is someone glancing at your wee wee that hurtful to you? I think it's pretty presumptuous of you to assume someone would even want to look at it in the first place. Unless you're say, Ron Jeremy, it probably ain't all that great anyway.

Here's some stupider comments from fans of Hardaway:

I get sick and tired of people comparing homosexuality to what black people went through for civil rights. Their issue is not about civil rights it is about a sexual decision. Black people can not stop being black we are noticeable. But what is the big deal with coming out the closet. IT IS ABOUT SEX!! No one really cares what the do in the bed room so stop trying to make sex an issue. If i would like to have sex with alot of women and came out on national tv how would I be treated.

1.) Yes, because millions of gay people chose to live a life where they are hated, threatened, disrespected, and discriminated against. Man, why didn't I choose to be gay? They've got it soooo good!

2.) Obviously people care a lot about what goes on in other people's bedrooms or the whole straight or gay thing wouldn't even be an issue.

3.) You're spelling grammar suck almost as bad as your logic.

I thought we lived in a nation of free speech? It seems that the only times there is free speech is when it is liberals wanting to speak! Go Hardaway.

Fool. He used his right to free speech. Loud and clear. Now we're using ours. Bigots always think the road goes one way--until they get hit with the mac truck and cry foul. Babies.

Although I Don't agree with the "Hate" sentiment in his remarks, I have to admire anyone in today's world that has the conviction to actually stand up for what they believe in. Especially when it is not the "popular view". Homosexuality should be kept behind close doors by those who will be judged accordingly in the end, not paraded around for the morally convicted in society to view.

1.) What conviction? He's backpedaling like a confused swimmer on crack. If he had any conviction, he would stand by what he said and not apologize at all. He's a coward. Most people like him are.

2.) Personally, I think religion should be kept behind closed doors. It should be illegal for people to pound on my door, thrust bibles in my face, leave stupid letters on my car window at the mall. If find it incredibly offensive considering I believe the world would be a better place without any religion at all. But, I've learned to live with the fact that my world will never happen. Maybe you should too.

Thank God for Tim Hardaway. Someone that is willing to express an opinion that is the correct one, and is shared by every hetero guy I know. It is totally wrong to try and make a comparison between the way blacks were treated years ago and the way gays are now. People are people and all sould be treated the same. Being a fag isn't natural. THATS THE DIFFERENCE PEOPLE. Basketball has enough contact in it that there is no way a straight guy could feel comfortable being bumped into and rubbed up against by some queer. And if he was on your team it would be worse, getting it everyday in practice then getting his bedroom eyes in the shower. Queers can't be trusted!

This comment is so stupid I really have no words. Please go back to the frat house and drink yourself into an alcohol induced coma. Jesus on a pogo stick...

What is the big deal here? Its A-M-E-R-I-C-A. Why cant someone speak how they feel without the media turning it into a circus. I definately wouldnt want to sweat and possibly bleed in sports thats an AIDS carrier. The odds are higher for a gay than a straight to have AIDS. Thats not a sterotype its a fact. If a homosexual said "I hate straight people" would that make the news?

Guess what? AIDS stats among heterosexuals is rising fast. 1/3 of new cases in 2005 were among heterosexual people. Doh! Most of them were probably chicks people like this sleep with. See, the thing is, gay people are smartening up, while straight people like this dumbass only contribute to the statistics.

I could continue, but the stupid is starting to make my eyes bleed.
