ESPN Yanks Schilling For Equating Muslim Extremists With Nazis

[SoloforLife]

He did not abide by the terms of his contract. I would think that the whiners would avoid the PC nonsense and acknowledge the employer has the right.

Ooooh, how so edgy and 'brave' of you Curt.

Not.

If I were a Nazi, I'd be offended at being compared to muslims.

It was a stupid thing to post up. If you're getting paid to publicly represent a company, you must act accordingly.

The statement is not really that outrageous, he was comparing jihadists as a % of the muslim population to nazis as a percentage of the German population.

That said it was pretty stupid for a public figure like him who wants to stay employed by the media to post.

Well, yeah...if you were a Nazi, you'd consider yourself genetically superior to anyone who wasn't a White Christian.

Remember when you threw a hysterical hissy-fit over ESPN doling out a suspection over tweets pointing out that evolutionary theory is sound science - in response to a series of moronic tweets asserting that evolution had been 'disproved' from, yep, you guessed it, Curt Schilling?

Remember when you ranted to no end about the 'PC' ESPN suspending Law? Remember that?

No? Well, neither do I. You didn't have any problem with that. You, like almost all of those who whine about 'political correctness', conveniently define it as only those speech codes you dislike. All the ones you happen to like? You magically redefine them as not being 'PC' for no objective reason. What makes the assertion of 'political correctness' when used by you and almost everyone else who uses it as just a vague epithet, a dismissive attempt to decline to actually address substance by flinging out your favorite pet term.

PS - Yes, Curt Schilling is unbelievably stupid. No wonder the education-is-scary-so-I-admire-ignorant-people crowd hang on his every word.
