LGBTQ Activist Takes On Piers Morgan Over Athletes Refusing To Wear Rainbow Colours

Bisexual activist and writer Lewis Oakley and wrestler and Fox News commentator Tyrus join Piers Morgan to discuss Pride month and its involvement in sports. Piers believes that people shouldn’t have to wear or support any cause that they don't believe in, including LGBTQ colours on their sports top and rainbow laces. Lewis believes that you can choose to support what you want but people are also allowed to discuss and question why someone takes that decision. Tyrus goes on to say you shouldn’t judge people based on public perception or these decisions and tells a great story about Sharon Osbourne being one of the nicest people to him and his black co-workers even though she’s been mislabelled a ‘racist’ after being dropped from The Talk on CBS.

Should athletes be forced to wear the LGBTQ flag on their jerseys?

[Furykidxxx]

They went from "fighting for their rights" to "bullying everyone into bowing down to them" pretty fucking quickly, didn't they?

[Ettibridget]

I am sick and tired of the LGBTs making demands on the rest of us. And I avoid anything and every item with these so-called "rainbow colors".

[roslynaubrey]

I refuse to shop anywhere showing a rainbow flag and I don’t need to explain why to anyone!

[jimkeappock]

No! Discussion IS NOT NEEDED. It’s a Fundamental Right Not to participate period!!

[sabdopalon]

Rainbow colors used to be wonderful for children now it's terrifying.

[elitedrumlessons]

I’m 100% against Pride month and would never wear a pride ribbon, it doesn’t matter the reason. You can’t force people to support something when they don’t

[rocmo]

I absolutely don't have to explain why I don't have pride in another person's sexuality

[loveanimals]

We have to ask why! NO, you don't. It's none of your business.

[ianking]

nobody should be forced to support anything that they find uncomfortable with or disagree with its about freedom of choice.

[donnakearse]

Why does anyone have to be asked WHY. Leave people alone. It’s not your business how people feel about things. ENOUGH!

[michael-hftn]

I will never be proud of the pride flag. It's a joke.

[vgfder]

Full support for those refusing to wear these disgusting colours.

[mariepoole]

Religious signs are not placed on uniforms nor are people forced to wear any religious signs. It would hit the fan if people were forced to wear a cross on their uniform if they weren’t Christian…….no one should be forced to were a symbol of someone’s sexual orientation.

[irishamerican]

Pride is by its own merit, a participation in a celebration. you cannot have pride in something that’s forced upon you.

[ReverendLinc]

Those people are bullies, plain and simple. You MUST believe what they want or they bully you in every manner available to them.

[barbarakropf]

We, those who are not LBGTQ1AA +. Do not need to parade around in rainbow colours. Life your life and allow us to life ours.

[TXP]

“There are many reasons why someone might not wear the laces…but we have to ask why.”

NO, YOU DON’T.

[athenstar]

I miss the days when seeing a rainbow drawing is just as innocent as drawing a sky and a sun.

[joeballman]

I don’t want it forced down my throat. Be what you want just leave me out of it
