ESPN’s Curt Schilling is not shy about voicing his opinions no matter how much controversy it causes.
Last August, Schilling was suspended by ESPN after comparing Muslims to Nazis in a Facebook post. Now, the 49-year-old baseball analyst has found himself in hot water again after posting this anti-transgender meme on social media.
After posting the meme, Schilling then doubled down on his stance with this blog post.
You frauds out there ranting and screaming about my ‘opinions’ (even if it isn’t) and comments are screaming for “tolerance” and “acceptance” while you refuse to do and be either.
YOU’RE the ones making it the issue. I don’t care, if you ask me about any of the topics it’s likely (much to the chagrin of many) I’ll answer with my opinion.
There are things I have deeply held beliefs in, things I have that are core to who I am, things I am passionate about. If you ask me about them it’s likely I’ll give you a passionate answer, whether you like that answer or not is completely up to you. I am not going to give you answers to make sure you like what I say, let the rest of the insecure world do that.
ESPN has yet to comment on Schilling’s latest social media snafu but it’s highly likely that he will be facing another suspension.
