In my last post I offered a hypothetical about what might happen if a private organization sacked someone for advocating a homosexual lifestyle, arguing that the lefties out there would not defend such an organization's autonomy as they defended A&E's sacking of Phil Robertson for opposing that lifestyle.
Well, now's our chance to find out. A punter for the Minnesota Vikings claims he was sacked for advocating same-sex marriage. If lefties truly are the superior, enlightened, and clear-thinking cohort they claim to be, surely they will rush to the coach's defense and point out that the First Amendment leaves the coach perfectly free to do what he did, since he's not a government actor. But enough sarcasm for the evening.
