Chris Kluwe: Disagree with me on homosexual marriage? I want to destroy your way of making a living.

“…it’s to make sure that Mike Priefer never holds a coaching position again in the NFL, and ideally never coaches at any level.

That is what Chris Kluwe, gay marriage proponent and now former Minnesota Viking punter, is now desiring for his former coach at the Vikings.  That Priefer should no longer have a way to make a living and provide for his family – belittled, denigrated, stripped of any professional renumeration, no longer able to protect and provide for his family.  That the years spent in learning his craft and finally performing at the highest level of his chosen career should amount to nothing – simply for being against gay marriage.  Simply for disagreeing with Kluwe on this issue. It is not enough to seek an apology (in watching HRC and GLAAD for several years, apologies seemingly just mean “more abasement is required”).

This is Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty all over again – not just a want to silence someone but a demand to make an example of him first, destroy him, and with him, his family.  Destitute, on the street, with no way to provide for his family?  Tolerance and acceptance is not to be voluntary.  We all are being forced to “acceptance” – yet another redefinition of “acceptance” – from being a voluntary act to one of a coerced state of being at risk of your life.  From Kluwe’s now infamous post on Deadspin, we come to the nitty-gritty (emphasis mine, reformatted):

…So there you have it. It’s my belief, based on everything that happened over the course of 2012, that I was fired by Mike Priefer, a bigot who didn’t agree with the cause I was working for, and two cowards, Leslie Frazier and Rick Spielman, both of whom knew I was a good punter and would remain a good punter for the foreseeable future, as my numbers over my eight-year career had shown, but who lacked the fortitude to disagree with Mike Priefer on a touchy subject matter. (Frazier was fired on Monday, at the conclusion of a 5-10-1 season.) One of the main coaching points I’ve heard throughout my entire life is, “How you respond to difficult situations defines your character,” and I think it’s a good saying. I also think it applies to more than just the players.

If there’s one thing I hope to achieve from sharing this story, it’s to make sure that Mike Priefer never holds a coaching position again in the NFL, and ideally never coaches at any level. (According to the Pioneer Press, he is “the only in-house candidate with a chance” at the head-coaching job.) It’s inexcusable that someone would use his status as a teacher and a role model to proselytize on behalf of his own doctrine of intolerance, and I hope he never gets another opportunity to pass his example along to anyone else.

a bigot who didn’t agree with the cause I was working for” – If one does not show the proper level desired tolerance and using their redefinition, and if you do not show the proper level of “acceptance” of their lifestyle, one is branded a bigot and a homophobe (and that proper level, defined by the Left,  brooks no disagreement with that cultural totalitarianism).  Once again we see the redefinition of the language by a few so as to make the ordinary person now guilty of hatred – where none actually exists.  Very much in vogue on the Left, especially by the militant gay movement, is the use of Political Correctness and fundamentally transforming the normal use of words to a political advantage.

How you respond to difficult situations defines your character” – Kluwe has answered this clearly and unambiguously – he has shown a willingness to do exactly what he accuses another; the demanding for “unpersonhood” for simply saying no to homosexual marriage – quite the double standard (re: intolerance = tolerance only if you’re on the “right” side of what is perceived an issue that only has a single right answer).  Kluwe’s response? “it’s to make sure that Mike Priefer never holds a coaching position again in the NFL, and ideally never coaches at any level

Hatred.
