Punk's Advice: "Kill Yourself"

Punk's Advice:
"Kill Yourself"

WWE Champion CM Punk spoke out on the topic of same sex marriage and Amendment 1 Monday morning on Twitter. Amendment 1 is a controversial topic in North Carolina, as it will define marriage in the state constitution as between one man and one woman, and would ban any other type of "domestic legal union" such as civil unions and domestic partnerships.

Punk wrote, "Amendment 1 is ridiculous. It's an invasion of people's rights. North Carolina, why do you care if somebody wants to marry who they love?" Same sex marriage should be legal. The fact that it's illegal is embarrassing."

He continued, "Divorce rate is at least 50% between men and women, so don't give me the values angle. Making same sex marriage illegal is the same as having segregated drinking fountains. Embarrassing. The human race is embarrassing. #evolve"

One of Punk's Twitter followers disagreed with his beliefs, writing to the WWE Superstar, "Man was meant for woman, and even the thought of homo's make me sick." Punk posted his message and wrote "Kill yourself" in response. 

He also advised another fan who disagreed with him to "drink bleach."

Responding to a user that told Punk to 'be a STAR' after telling the British fan to kill himself, he wrote, "hey moron, don't try to hide behind the be a star campaign. I am a star. I'm fighting bigots here. Zero tolerance."

His beliefs contrast a homophobic slur he hurled at a fan last July at a WWE live event in Adelaide, Australia. Punk engaged in a verbal altercation with a fan telling him that he has a "homo" haircut.

Obviously when Punk showed up to Raw he was in serious trouble and WWE ordered him to apologize for all of his comments before it got any worse...

After tonight's RAW, a cooler-headed Straight-Edge Superstar apologized for the remark, while standing by his support of gay marriage.

"I was pretty worked up today," he admitted. "The amendment 1 situation had me all wound up. I stand by my thoughts on gay marriage 100%. How I defended that stance was 100% wrong. I admit it. You can't stoop to others levels. Sometimes I fight fire with fire and it isn't ways the best way.

"To @ezeekay: I apologize. I don't want you to kill yourself. I want you to better yourself. Just as I want to better myself. I'll start by being the better man and once again, apologize for my harsh reaction to your opinion of homosexuals making you 'sick'

"Sorry y'all. If I let anybody down, I apologize. I'll make it up to ya and move forward with a better understanding of others feelings.#pma"

TNA wrestler "The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero criticized Punk's comments and accused him of wanting to play God. "So humored by the hypocrisy of those who wanna play GOD, or change what GOD intended," wrote Dinero. "You wanna evolve? Seek GOD! Hows that for change?~PHS"
