    It's the predictability of it which gets on my tit-end. Fury has been a homophobic blowhard all his life. Nee one gave a fuck about it until about a fortnight ago. People now acting all shocked because a religious pikey is acting like one.

    World heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury will face no police action following an inquiry into alleged homophobic comments.

    Greater Manchester Police (GMP) received a complaint earlier this week after statements made on the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme.

    But the force has recorded the comments as a "hate incident" as opposed to a hate crime.


    :rolleyes: :palm:

    'There are only three things that need to be accomplished before the devil comes home: one of them is homosexuality being legal in countries, one of them is abortion and the other one’s paedophilia. Who would have thought in the 50s and 60s that those first two would be legalised'?

    Basically, he is a pikey.

    Originally? From the interview in The Mail On Sunday, 7th November:

    Tyson Fury: Oh yes, I still have those moments but I have learned to channel it. I have figured out a solution for me to survive in life and go on and live until I am going to die, basically. The place I was in before, I am no longer there because I have channelled it with God. Every time I stray away from the Lord’s word, I find emptiness and darkness. Which is obviously because if I am in a dark world, which the world is very evil out there and people may think I am a lunatic or whatever or a bible basher or an insane lunatic but it’s very, very true and if you believe in the word, then you believe what I am saying. We live in an evil world. The devil is very strong at the minute. Very strong. And I believe the end is near. The bible tells me the end is near. The world tells me the end is near. Just a little short few years, I reckon, away from being finished

    Oliver Holt: Armageddon?
    Tyson Fury: Yeah

    Oliver Holt: When you say the world tells you the end is near, do you mean the way we are abusing the planet and that kind of stuff?
    Tyson Fury: Abusing the planet, the wars in the Middle East, the famines, the earthquakes, the natural disasters, all these things are talked about 2,000 years ago before they even happened. Prophesied. So now it is all coming true. It says there will be a time when men lay with men and women lay with women and that’s accepted and it’s only in 1967 when these things were OK: abortions, being homosexual in public. So from 1967 until now. There are only three things that need to be accomplished before the Devil comes home. One of them is homosexuality being legal in countries, one of them is abortion and the other is pedophilia. So who would have thought in the 50s and early 60s that those first two would be legalised. When I say pedophiles can be made legal, that sounds like crazy talk doesn’t it but back in the 50s and early 60s, for them first two to be made legal would have been looked on as a crazy man again. If I would have told you 120 years ago that a thousand tonne aeroplane was going to float through the sky, a piece of steel, ludicrous. When Christopher Columbus said the world was round, he’s an idiot. All these things that happen in the world, wise men already know they are going to happen and they see what they really are. Foolish people follow the system, get caught up in media news, what the government want you to believe and the world and all the higher powers want you to believe and want you to be in the system, want you go down the same path as all the sheep in the cattle market

    Oliver Holt: As you’ve already said, you probably don’t care, but a lot of people will be uncomfortable with that kind of view of homosexuality, that it is something wrong.
    Tyson Fury: To be honest, this is a free world we live in and an evil world. For me, people can say ‘oh, you’re against abortions and you’re against paedophilia, you’re against homosexuality, you’re against whatever’ but my faith and my culture is all based on the bible. The bible was written a long time ago, wasn’t it, from the beginning of time until now so if I follow that and that tells me it’s wrong, then it’s wrong for me. That’s just my opinion. How many people have different opinions in this world? (Pointing to a bottle on the table) Every different person has a different opinion of what that bottle really is or what colour is or something. If I say that bottle is clear, there will be someone out there telling me that bottle is green or blue or whatever. That’s just their opinion and my opinion. Well, my opinion is I follow what the Lord says, or try to. And what opinions of people out there who are doing what they are doing, they are following what they want to do. They are living for themselves. I am trying to live for God

    Technically, he hasn't compared the two. He's mentioned the two in the same sentence.
    I don't see where the 'hate' is in it.

    This is yet another classic example of people (as Fury states) acting like sheep when a story gathers some kind of momentum and people jump on the bandwagon because they're 'offended'.

    The man is clearly extraordinarily dumb but that isn't a fucking crime.

    Nope. No crime anywhere in among all that. Absolutely nothing. Basically, he's a daft Christian fundamentalist saying things consistent with one type of fundamental Christianity. People are funny cunts sometimes. Everyone bangs on about the importance of free speech but then the same dickheads get all uppity when someone actually says something that doesn't fit in with the 'modern' view.

    I watched a video on the BBC yesterday of his 'response' to the criticism. He basically hung his head of out the window of a car and repeated 'trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will saved'. Over and over again for about two minutes. I was pissing myself laughing.

    Oh well, I don't think he's as dumb as your run-of-the-mill footballer....that is, those who look at the interviewer with utter confusion on their faces and have absolutely nothing to say.
    Fury might be academically limited, but I don't think he's dumb. He's just too honest and frank with opinion that are 'delicate' to others.

    And it's not a crime, or even an 'incident'.

    Now, if I was on Facebook and posted:
    "This is what should happen to all homosexuals:
    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YQLbwOGT8eM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> "

    Then yeah, I'd be bang to rights...

    Jaja. As the chomsky once said - goebbels was in favour of free speech when it was opinions he liked, if you dont support the right of people to express views you despise you arent in favour of free speech (caveat for speech acts which directly imperil others)

    He needs to stick to his guns. Don't bend to this foolish liberal hysteria...the type that makes people like Bruce Jenner "Woman of the year".

    Yeah, his views are stupid but they're far less offensive than this browbeating. He's paid to box and he's a free man under the sky - he can hold any stupid, wrongheaded beliefs he wants.

    Agreed. I don't share his beliefs. Never really cared much for religion, period. But that's another issue.

    He should be treated fairly.

    He's as dumb as a stump. I don't agree with his views but no amount of talking to him is going to change him.

    I hope his wife gets raped by a homeless black man with AIDS.

    Cuntservatives are always trying to stick that "sensitive" tag on liberals and liberal agendas.

    Now these are the same cunts who get offended because people don't say "Merry Christmas" or celebrate their pagan holiday with them.

    I love it when I hear a conservative person (in person) start complaining about the world being too PC. I think in my mind, "Now this is going to be a fun conversation."

    It's stupid to suggest that saying "Merry Christmas" is offensive, when people have no problem in saying "happy Eid Mubarak" or "happy halloween" or whatever. So what if Christmas is a pagan holiday?

    And the world is too fucking PC. In fact the world is just upside down nowadays.
