The GOP lost yet another small battle today.
The National Football League....the beacon of macho manliness in America, had it's collegiate player draft today.
And former University of Missouri defensive end Michael Sam, SEC defensive player of the year, was drafted in the 7th round by the St Louis Rams. He is considered a "tweener", too slow to play LB, too small for DE, but very talented, so he's getting his shot.
ESPN showed him at his home with his partner, a white man. So, basically, a gay interracial couple, kissing on national TV on ESPN, after Sam was drafted into the manliest of sports, the NFL.
And what happened? Nothing. The public is fine with it. His future St Louis teammates welcomed him and basically said lets get to work and win some ball games. ESPN analysts spoke of the significance of the moment...and them spoke of how Sam will fit in with the Ram's scheme and their incredibly talented defense.
The public is just fine with it. So are his teammates.
Only the GOP seems to have a problem with gay people. And society will remember it.
Not all conservatives/republicans have a problem with gay people. But I do have a problem with ass holes like you that broad stroke an entire group as being homophobic or racist.
