Ex-Basketball Star Says His Anti-Gay Michael Sam Tweet Was For A ‘Study’
“My stance on gay athletes is irrelevant,” Henderson told ESPN by phone. “The whole reason we chose to do this is because my friend is gay. If it was wrong for me to do it, so be it.”
Henderson tweeted the following on Monday morning, two days after Sam was taken by the St. Louis Rams in the seventh and final round of the NFL draft:
“Boycotting sportscenter til this michael sam nasty [expletive, expletive] is off …. My brothers are 7 and 11 and saw that!!! #SICKENING”
An hour later, Henderson followed with tweets explaining his rationale for the initial comment.
One of my best friends, WHO IS GAY, is about to graduate in psychology, asked me to say these things so he can have responses … TBC

The point of his study was to see how people react when others say things or act a certain way against another group of people … TBC

Henderson’s explanation is far more plausible than “the Benghazi attack was a reaction to a youtube video”

With birth certificates, death panels, child re education camps, and skewed poll/Romney landslides so passe, what is the dedicated Obama-hater to do?

love this edit feature. anyway, there were most certainly protests about the video throughout the Muslim world. why is it that the Benghazi brigade omits this salient point from their 24×7 obsession?

Just conducting a “study,” eh?
Reminds me of the time I told a cop, “Honest, officer, I was just walking along minding my own business when I looked down and found these drugs just sitting there on the sidewalk where children could get them and I was on my way to the po-lice station to turn them in when you pulled me over….”
– didn’t work for me, either.

LOL good story at least. I dunno why the cops wouldnt buy that?
