Eddie just play the music and shut up. Nobody paid to hear your ranting -
exactly We are free to disagree with what people say. In this case, the Benedictine sisters also disagreed https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/chiefs/2024/05/18/harrison-butker-commencement-speech-benedictine-sisters-chiefs/73750896007/

No it doesn’t. Free speech means the government can’t throw you in jail for what you said and can’t make laws outlawing it. Even then there are limits like you can’t shout fire in a crowded movie theater. Since Butker hasn’t been locked up for what he said and no one is making a law to outlaw it free speech is non issue here. Freedom of speech is one of the most misused terms there is. People seem to think it means that people can say whatever they want and it makes them immune to criticism. It doesn’t work that way. Yes you can say it but people are still aloud to form their own opinions and say what they want in response. Butker is entitled to whatever beliefs he has. He’s entitled to share those beliefs. People are also entitled to say they don’t agree with those beliefs and find them offensive. Also, worth noting Freedom of Speech does not apply outside of public settings, so private businesses don’t have to follow it. That’s why you can’t just walk up to your boss and tell them what you really think of them without facing repercussions for that action. Samething with the Chiefs and the NFL, not that they are going to but yes they can punish Butker for what he said if they choose too. -
😊 Everyone has the right to say what they want, including Butker and those criticizing Butker. Those standing up for Butker and using the freedom of speech argument have yet to defend those critizing Butker, instead using name-calling to disparage them. Funny how some see only one side criticizing others for their beliefs. They do not see themselves as doing the same to those for their differing views. 🤷♀️ Using his platform, David Vedder of Pearl Jam used his freedom of speech to blast Harrison Butker. Like many of us here, he asked what does Butker's message have to do with graduation. https://brobible.com/culture/article/eddie-vedder-harrison-butker-comments/
