There are three possibilities here, and only one seems at all likely: 1) he died of purely natural causes (very unlikely due to age and prior health records). 2) he ran afoul of a nonawakened backward philistine culture who expressed intolerance toward a representation of a sexual choice (not at all likely) 3) he recently received the clot shot (this is almost certainly what happened).

Let me add a 4th. Covid has caused widespread immune dysregulation, and while he might or might not have had Covid at that specific time, he succumbed to a common bug he would’ve fought off normally. His recently received bivalent booster only exacerbated the situation.

This is why they are so quick to defend the black and the brown - they are overcompensating for their own superiority complexes. Additionally, they will be offended *for* the black and brown people who are too simple and naive and stupid to know when they're being offended.

Would be kind of interesting to see a bunch of costumed gays hold a pride parade over there huh? That would be entertainment at it's best!

It's far more like them to hold that parade in the country that allows it and bitch that every single person fails to share their enthusiasm for depravity.

Wahl stated on a podcast Thursday that he had contracted bronchitis while covering the World Cup ... which forced him to take several days off from reporting.

Wahl said he had visited the medical clinic several times due to being under the weather ... but had been feeling better.


Seems legit.

But yet she felt the need to make that point.

Don’t act like every story or twitter post wasn’t full of comments about the vaccine. Just look at the posts on TD.

are we supposed to feel bad some queer died over in a foreign country where that shite doesn't fly? I don't, not in the slightest. I would slap his gay brother and tell him to shut the frick up and deal with it.

Depends.

If the person constantly complains how racist and homophobic America is then it's a perfectly acceptable thing to say.

Otherwise, I agree.

One could argue it wasn't a game to him, and it was something he felt was worth standing up for.

But you ain't wrong.

Sudden death does occur when you commit suicide.

The difference is the common bug. The common bug on the other side of the world, that is effectively a common cold to them, can kick your arse.

You do realize Grant himself wasn’t gay? I mean it mentions his wife in the article.

He was detained for his gay shirt for 30 minutes 18 days ago. It is doubtful that his death has anything to do with his gay support. When have Muslims ever been surreptitious in their faith killings? The government would have arrested him first and the people would have killed him publicly. This is most likely just a normal heart attack.
