Enes Freedom took to Twitter to share his thoughts on Charles Barkley’s support for the LGBTQ+ community, and safe to say he didn’t mince any words.

“I hear what you’re saying Charles Barkley, and yes, we shouldn’t have any problems with the LGBTQ or Trans community. However, the problem starts when they try to come for innocent kids. Stop pushing this agenda on our youth! LEAVE KIDS ALONE!!!” 

“We do not need to have literature in schools that show boys how to suck d**k”

The former NBA star’s comments came on the back of Barkley’s powerful words of support when he spoke about the community at large over the weekend.

“If you’re gay, bless you,” Barkley said. “If you’re transgender, bless you. And if you have a problem with that, f*** you!”

Freedom’s words were met with instant and intense criticism. Surely, they are harsh words, and perhaps the former NBA star could have been wise with his comments, especially on a social media platform. 

Surely, this will be one of the raging topics online for some time.


Charles Barkley Has Been Vocal About His Support For The LGBTQ+ Community

Charles Barkley’s words over the weekend resonated with his thoughts a year ago, which had the same lines, more or less. The LGBTQ+ community has been generating ample support from the former NBA star.

“If you are gay or transgender, I love you. And if anybody gives you sh*t, you tell em Charles says ‘f**k you!’”

The NBA has always been strong in its support of social causes, and Barkley was one of the prominent figures playing his part. And he hasn’t shied away from using speaking platforms as a mode to get his point across.
