Because if they didn't they would be breaking the law, it's not rocket science. What you are advocating is pure discrimination against a man because of his views and that is utterly wrong in fact Falou would be proud of you.

France is a fully secular nation, one of it's few good points, so your attitude won't break any ice over here.

And yes I find IF's views both wrong and utterly laughable but if that's what he thinks then that is his god-given (in his case) right.

Also, where do you buy these moral compasses, is there a Which comparison site as there seems to be a lot of different brands to choose from?

You're a decent poster I know you are but this one is a bit daft, though I respect your right to say it...see

Great signing for Catalan

The guy is a class ball player

Free speech is a gift that should be used wisely and not in uttering the bile spewed by Mr Falou, tolerance is a wonderful thing what offends some doesn't others. History is littered with people who were allowed to speak freely and then went on to carry out unspeakable horrors. it starts somewhere and others are right to challenge his views.

Love Wigan's response to this. Perhaps the best way to deal with this kind of attitude.

Is it, not cynical then from a club that employs a renowned homophobe who actually took it a step further. Suprised you fell for that one.

Hope we do the same for the Catalan home game, could even double the attendance

More so rather than trying to shut him up, celebrate the fact people in this country can generally live their law abiding lives how they wish.

Wrong in my opinion. It takes all voices to make free speech work not just the ones you like. Some of the most righteous sounding people on earth are utterly vile under the skin and that's how they get away with it, they hide in plain sight.

The people who say things you don't like aren't the problem, it's those who don't but think and act who are the problem.

If you don't allow bigots a platform how will you ever know what they really are, you won't until it's too late. Look through history, its happened loads of times. Best to know your enemies IMHO.

Sorry, don't get your point.

He is, like the rest of us, entitled to believe whatever he wants and nobody can prevent you thinking whatever you want.
However, when someone is advocating the stuff that he put on a public forum (twitter) then, for me, he's gone a long way over the line.

Saying that the bushfires in Aus were sent as punishment for gay sex and marriage, wont endear him to too many over there either.

As I said in a different post, some Cas fans were ejected and banned for saying far less offensive stuff and it's quite bizarre that any employer would want someone with such open bigoted views on their payroll.

The issue is not his views as such, it's that he has gone public with those views.

Wow shoehorning a dig about SBW over an issue or story that has nothing to do with him!!

Regardless of his personal beliefs in relation to homosexuality he hasn’t aired them pubicly.

In relation to Falou another player to light up SL hopefully.

People don’t agree with his views and that’s fair enough and I believe Super League have issued the perfect statement in relation to this signing publicly condeming it.

In truth though I just want to see him on the field and away from his soap box.

As long as he keeps his head down and just gets on with his rugby I think he will be a great addition to the comp.

There must be a quote from Falou's favourite book about "turning a blind eye" but, maybe we shouldn't go there.
