We do have a 1st Amendment, but I made it very clear when I said "pro athletes" should delete their twitter accounts, because it is unneeded attention and distractions.
That's not solely the fault of the pro athlete. There is the public and the media to blame. Often times, things are said, then twisted or taken out of context.
THAT is a threat to freedom of speech.

There is research that suggests that gay people may have hormonal imbalances
Straight people have hormonal imbalances. It's called puberty. Maybe you went through it.
Women have hormonal imbalances, it is called menstruation and menopause. It seems like you went through that for sure.

I mean why is it hard to understand that a person could have been born that way or has a condition. So the only ignorant person is you. Open your mind, not everything is black and white. Not every gay man just chose to be gay. Educate yourself because clearly you are not...
I'm fully aware that there is evidence of gay people being born that way. I don't recall ever saying otherwise. If you can find where I did, please do so. Otherwise, save your insults for youself.
Calling it a "condition" is what is ignorant. That would be what you did.
He wrote it himself, the "media" or "public" clearly did not "twist" up his words lmao. Just because you have freedom of speech does not mean that everything you say is ok. Using the "N" word is not right, that is just one example. But since we have the 1st Amendment than I guess you would be ok with it lmao.
Not even going into the whole hormonal imbalance comment you made because obviously that was just you trying to find a way to offend me over the internet lmao. I don't get offended easily, maybe you have weak skin that you believe you would strike a nerve or something lol.
If you are "fully aware that there is evidence of gay people being born that way," then why did you say earlier "Sorry, but I agree with him. I don't understand homosexuality either," clearly you are contradicting yourself.
As far as the insults go, you fired first the moment you said I sounded ignorant. If you ask me that is being hypocritical.
But back to the topic, I can care less what another man says on his twitter account, but Mike Wallace and other Dolphin players should just be more cautious of the things they say on twitter. Why risk your reputation? I just don't see the point of it, like I said, some things are better left unsaid!
