Chris Kluwe sends letter to Burns, and it's a pretty funny read. Well done ....

I love Chris Kluwe
Always going to the media with witty stunts like when McNabb was his teammate or talking about the lockout or occasionally putting out statements on serious issues

I fully support BA's right to speak and not have it interfered with by politicians, but I disagree with his position.

Maybe he is not responding to "their whims", or what they might call their beliefs and positions; maybe he too holds them.
I don't get why it is necessary to insult a position you diagree with by calling it names like a whim or bigoted or whatever. If it is a bad position just attack the position.

Because most Conservatives believe it is ok to have a different opinion and respect that opinion rather than calling people who disagree with them names.
Just because someone doesn't believe gays should marry doesn't give them the right to tell you that you are wrong for believing otherwise. And that goes both ways.
This minister for religious reasons doesn't believe in gay marriage. That is his right. It is NOT his right to infringe upon BA's right to say he does. Period.

In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Chris Kluwe backs Brendon Ayanbadejo's comments with letter to Emmett C. Burns Jr.
Wow! What a letter and I agree with everything. Kluwe is awesome!

Heh. I've heard this before.
You can have your free speech and still be accused of acting like a bigot, T. Just because a person has free speech does not mean he should be applauded for wanting to treat some Americans like second class citizens.
Free speech does not mean a person is right, or is free from criticism.Festivus
His definitions and arguments were so clear in his own mind that he was unable to understand how any reasonable person could honestly differ with him.

Using football as a platform to endorse gay marriage doesn't seem to be the swiftest manuever. Burns has no right to demand B.A. keep quiet, but every right to call out his endorsement.
