Yeah. A Catholic man saying Catholic things to Catholic students at a private Catholic university. On his own time and not on behalf of the National Felons League… and people are upset.

So a flaming liberal can give a commencement speech at a liberal university, promoting liberal values and……..crickets.
It’s not like he said the NFL would be better off if more of the players were raised in a two parent household.

The left has been attacking the Christian values and, in particular, the Catholic Church, for 75+ years as it goes completely against their ideology and their goals. Bathhouse Barry the magic muslim has just kicked it into overdrive during his third term. The gloves are off and we should fight thusly.

I'm not sure why it's news that a guy has opinions.
Agree or disagree, how many different opinions on these topics are out there? His aren't even outlandish, just slightly "dated" if you even wanna call them that compared to popular opinion.

Well, in an ideal world, it shouldn't be news, and no one should care. But, this world ain't ideal, because the demon leftists are held bent on attacking anything that is right. So, burying your head in the sand is not going to make it go away.

Not caring is different than burying my head. Entirely different.

Oh ok, not burying your head. Have it your way. Doesn't change anything. Does "who cares" even means anything, when folks who say it write a paragraph about the topic. Why even write anything at all?

Don't do that. Don't behave as if you don't know what all of this is about, and then act like it doesn't matter.

I'm not sure you guys understand what I'm asking.
Why are the minutely different opinions this guy has so GD upsetting to folks? Since when does THIS level of differing opinion upset someone.
One area ya'll wont ever agree with me on is the fact that focusing on every one of these ignorant instances of folks getting upset at someone won't do anything but wear ya out.
Won't none of ya'll fix these ignorant asses, and that's what they are if THIS upsets them.
If you don't want me to offer my opinion just let me know, but don't tell me which one I have to have. That makes you no different than those complaining about a man wanting a wife focused on family rather than Instagram.
Yall enjoy...my goodness.

And just who the fuck is doing that? If you're pissed off about something, don't take it out on members having a discussion, and this "Let me know if you don't want my opinion" shit- just what is your problem? Don't come in here behaving like a petulant teenager. You damn well know better than to pull that shit in this forum. You pop in to this thread, act like the topic and all of the discussion of it is silly- man, cut it out

Why am I catching shit for defending this Harrison Butker?
What else do you want from me? This is not the first time I've been given crap by you for not getting up in arms about something. I think these stupid people complaining get too much airtime and bandwidth.
Why is it you give people so much shit when you don't 100% agree with them? I'm not even sure what it is I am saying, trying to defend this person, that upsets you.
I'm sure you'll come back with "I don't have to explain anything", and so be it. Keep reducing the soup here until it's too fucking salty to taste.
For the last time, This man has simple opinions, WHO CARES if someone has a problem with them. Being an idiot and getting upset by this man's speech is not a reason for me to care.

Otto, you have no call to be acting this way. I have cut you slack more than a few times. I told you, after one of the times you were belligerent with members in the forum, and after you apologized for it, that you will always be welcome here. Do you think that everyone, or even most people, who make this kind of work for me, get affirmation of that sort?
And don't you presume to tell me that I'll respond with- essentially- "This is my forum". That is what you are saying I would tell you, when you day I would respond with "I don't have to explain anything to you." You've got a lot of sack to come up with shit like that, since I have explained PLENTY to you, and as I am doing now. I don't need to take the "Because I'm the boss approach." Tell me how often you see me do that. I temper discipline with reason, and you should already know this.
Don't you dare behave like you're being mistreated. You're a grown man and I am speaking to you as such. If you can't see that I have treated you over the years with a measure of patience and deference, then you're blind.
Calm down, take a step back, re-evaluate your approach, and take responsibility for your words and, most importantly, your attitude. You have not made yourself clear, and you alluded to this already. You think you're defending the man, but what I see instead is you, taking members to task for daring to discuss the subject.
I don't want to have to deal with this any more today. You had better take a second to think about who is giving who a hard time in this exchange.

You don't know what you're taking about. You have no idea. In this forum, I bite my tongue EVERY DAY. You have no fucking idea. There is plenty said in this forum I don't agree with, but thanks for behaving as if every single Goddamned thing said here has to be in sync with my opinions.
You have no idea. This is apparent by your remarks. I am a fair administrator and I seek to dispense justice, not vengeance, and for you to tell me- because you've gotten your wrist slapped-- that I allow no one to disagree with me, is a slap in the face, and after I have tried to get you to open your eyes to your occasional behavior, and cut you plenty of slack in the process.
I should send you a Goddamned bill for my time.

Back on topic, we have another example of my trash tier city government:
Missouri’s attorney general accuses Kansas City of doxxing Chiefs kicker
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey (R) accused Kansas City of doxxing the Chiefs’ kicker, Harrison Butker, and pledged to hold the city accountable in a statement Thursday.
“My office is demanding accountability after @KansasCity doxxed @buttkicker7 last night for daring to express his religious beliefs,” Bailey wrote on the social media platform X, linking to the city’s official government account and to Butker’s account.
“I will enforce the Missouri Human Rights Act to ensure Missourians are not targeted for their free exercise of religion,” he added. “Stay tuned.”
Bailey’s statement came in response to a now-deleted post from the Kansas City government account Wednesday evening that read, “Just a reminder that Harrison Butker lives in the City of Lee’s Summit.”
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker (7) watches his field goal split the uprights as punter Tommy Townsend (5) looks on during the first half of the NFL Super Bowl 58 football game against the San Francisco 49ers Sunday, Feb. 11, 2024, in Las Vegas. (AP Photo/Julio Cortez) Within two hours, the Kansas City account had taken down the post. The account also released a subsequent statement, saying, “We [apologize] for our previous tweet. It was shared in error.”
The city’s mayor, Quinton Lucas, issued his own public statement, calling the original post “clearly inappropriate for a public account.”
“The City has correctly apologized for the error, will review account access, and ensure nothing like it is shared in the future from public channels,” he added.
The post followed a wave of backlash to a commencement speech Butker gave to a Catholic liberal arts college Saturday, when he attacked President Biden for a myriad of issues — including how he squares supporting access to abortion while publicly identifying as a devout Catholic — and railed against “bad leaders who don’t stay in their lanes.”
“The bad policies and poor leadership have negatively impacted major life issues. Things like abortion, [in vitro fertilization], surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support for the degenerate cultural values and media all stem from pervasiveness of disorder,” Butker said.
“Our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his Catholic faith, but at the same time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally,” he continued.
Biden is only the nation’s second Catholic president in history, and he frequently attends Saturday evening mass with his family either near his home in Wilmington, Del., or in Washington, D.C.
At times, however, Biden has had to balance the positions of the Catholic Church on issues like abortion and LGBTQ rights with the political realities of being a Democratic president.
Biden’s abortion views have evolved over the 50 years he’s been in the public eye, but he has consistently supported the right to abortion access since becoming president. The president has said that as a practicing Catholic, he’s not “big on abortion” but thinks the Roe v. Wade decision “got it right.”
Butker’s remarks were an apparent reference to when Biden gestured the sign of the cross last month during a rally against abortion restrictions.
“He has been so vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that I’m sure to many people, it appears you can be both Catholic and pro-choice,” Butker added. “He is not alone. From the man behind the COVID lockdowns, to the people pushing dangerous gender ideologies onto the youth of America, they all have a glaring thing in common — they are Catholic. This is an important reminder that being Catholic alone doesn’t cut it.”
