So what punishment would you meet out to this Kevin Brown bloke?
Fine him?
Ban him?
Shoot him?
Force him to work on a gay switchboard for a week?
All of the above?

The RFL have set a precedent with the Cas fine, they should either ban him or fine him or both.
Leo-Latu received a 6 game ban for making a racist comment towards Kevin Penny.

I think the difference in this one is that this player hasn't directed his comments directly at one person unlike Leo Latu and the Castleford supporters towards Gareth thomas.
It's a throwaway comment (thats bordering on the ridiculous) made on his twitter page that I doubt most people on here even knew (or cared) existed this morning...

That's okay then. Ever heard of the words 'role model'. Look at how kids in America try and emulate their heros by buying guns and getting into gangs.

Just a sincere apology would do.

I get what you're saying, but if I want 'edgey' humour, i'll buy Viz or watch stand up. If the joke was poked at you personally or on a different topic like race, you wouldn't be happy.

| Perhaps he shouldn't have made the comment but is it really that offensive?

Personally I think it should be forgotten. I'm just intrigued by what the RFL's reaction will be following their 'no tolerance' policy to homophobic remarks.

I agree.
However the left wing sandal wearing witch hunters will undoubtedly insist he goes and lives with a homosexual couple for a fortnight as their child and will have to sell copies of the Gay Times in Wigan town centre on a Saturday arvo dressed in a frock as a way of combatting his deep seated disgusting prejudices

Gay people wear frocks do they?
