Larry Johnson Fired From Chiefs For Exercising Freedom Of Speech
Football player Larry Johnson, who used to play for the Kansas City Chiefs has recently been released from his contract for allegedly calling someone a 'fag' on his twitter page. The reference was supposedly aimed at members of the media who have expressed disdain for Larry's tactics on and off the field. According to one source:
“We made a decision to release Larry Johnson from his contract,” Kansas City said head coach Todd Haley told a news conference on Monday. “Over the last couple of weeks (general manager) Scott (Pioli) and I have expended a lot of time and energy, along with (board chairman) Clark Hunt, talking about this and figuring out the direction to go. “We decided it was in the best interests of the Kansas City Chiefs organization to move forward. It was the totality of the situation and even before I was around here.”
Apparaently, America isn't the home of free speech we thought it was. One guy can get on the radio and spew all kinds of hate speech towards anyone who isn't a white male *cough* Limbaugh *cough*, and another guy tells jokes on his Twitter account. How in the world do these guys come up with this stuff?
