WWE wrestling superstar C.M. Punk strikes an aggressive pose inside the ring, but it seems he saved his hardest blows for supporters of the traditional family.
On Monday, the grappler told his Twitter followers he opposed North Carolina’s constitutional amendment to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman, which passed in a landslide on Tuesday.
One of his followers responded, “Man was meant for woman, and even the thought of homo’s make me sick.” Punk thenreplied, “Kill yourself.”
He told another supporter of the nuclear family to “drink bleach.”
... In another tweet, Punk castigated the amendment’s supporters as “So many stupid people. Bigots. Talking about what’s ‘natural.’”
Ironically, he later posted a message stating, “I am a star. I’m fighting bigots here. Zero tolerance.”
The measure, he wrote, “is ridiculous.” He added, “The human race is embarrassing. #evolve.”
The 33-year-old, born Philip Jack Brooks, is one of the most popular wrestlers in the WWE.
