Wow, just when you think people can’t prove their ignorance anymore.
On the heels of John Amaechi coming out as a homosexual, Tim Hardaway was asked what he would do if he had a gay teammate. This was apparently the equivalent of giving him a spoon and telling him to shove it down his throat. He made no hesitation in saying that he would distance himself from him, because he “hates gay people,” and of course, it just aint right.
Now, everyone knows, that the people who are screaming the loudest about faggot this and faggot that and I hate gays, etc. etc. are usually the biggest damn queers alive! You see it in church, you see it in sports. It’s not uncommon.
But what makes this story so sad is that this “man” used in the utmost loosest sense of the word, was so blatently verbal with his disgust. Everyone has their qualms, their biases, their hangups, but to go on a national program and proclaim your hatred for a particular group of people, that’s just suicide, idiot!
Perhaps if Hardway’s boyfriend wasn’t so adament about going public with their little affair, he wouldn’t be so bitter about being in a locker room with another gay man who could sniff out his tendencies like a fresh apple pie. Perhaps?
You hate gay people, Hardaway, well, now we officially hate you too.
