Josh Robinson compares same-sex marriage to pedophilia

Friday marked a historic day in the history of equal rights in America, as the Supreme Court ruled that individual states can no longer make same-sex marriage illegal. As soon as the ruling was announced, you knew it was only a matter of time before a professional athlete said something dumb on Twitter.

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Josh Robinson volunteered to be one of the first.

In a series of tweets, Robinson essentially drew a comparison between same-sex marriage and pedophilia.

But don’t worry, Robinson meant it in the most respectful way possible.

In the end EVERYONE has a right to believe what they want to believe. You shared yours, I shared mine. #BelieveiT

Robinson is certainly correct about everyone having the right to believe what they want, but we also reserve the right to call him a moron for expressing those beliefs. We know one Pro Bowler who is teammates with Robinson who might even agree with him.
