Personally couldn’t give a monkeys about him spouting off As it’s only one mans views ,just ignore it and treat it with the contempt it deserves .Im old school and don’t get wound up by every inflammatory remark that’s put on social media Or I wouldn’t go out of the house .All I’m interested in is that he adds something to super league as the last time I looked he ain’t killed no one ,he’s just put his personal view out there

I would have been extremely pleased if we had managed to sign him.

Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where everybody of whatever race, creed, religion,beliefs or sexual persuasion, could take the proverbial pi55 out of each other and just sit back and have a good laugh about it all. instead we get uptight about the slightest thing and worry ourselves sick about whether we could be prosecuted for it or not. Equality throughout the world!!! If someone takes the mick or "insults" you, then just do the same back and agree to differ, shake hands and move on.

I suppose if people weren't assaulted or killed on the back of been LGBT then I suppose we could all have a laugh and take the proverbial.

Comments from Hirst on Twitter:

People deserve a second chance when they want to move past the mistake they’ve made.
For that to happen there needs to be remorse.

I don’t see how there can be remorse when Falou obviously agrees with what he’s said? Not to say I agree with Falou though.

It would be a hyperthetical Utopian world that I was envisaging, Khlav. In the real world, alas, an impossibility

I agree about how great it would be if all people, regardless of race, creed, colour or sexual preference could get along and I'm also old enough to realise that this has never been the case for as long as the world has been turning.
However, just for clarity, Falou said that Homosexuals should all "burn in hell" and he also stated that the bush fires in Australia were sent by God, as punishment for gay marriage and gay sex.

Now, I'm ok with people having an opinion and usually ok with those opinions being shared, after all, this is how people learn and form their own opinions.

However, if anyone believes in God or having "a maker", this is as harsh as it can get, without actually committing an act of violence and considering that the LGBT community are regularly targeted, verbally and physically, how can it be right to condone this sort of repeated narrative.

It's a long way from sticks and stones name calling and people with these views are potentially dangerous, either in person or, in "feeding" the minds of others into carrying out their acts.

If this were a religious leader openly saying these things about another religious group, they would be arrested.

It's abhorrent that in a civilised society that people can wish such a fete (if you believe in heaven and hell), to fall upon another human being, especially one that isn't causing any harm to another person, they are merely trying to live their lives.

For those that believe its ok and without consequence, just think a little more whether this is the case.

Rant over.
