Chris Kluwe calls out Texans owner over political donation

By Rachel Wold

Former NFL punter Chris Kluwe wrote and published a personal lettercalling out Houston Texans owner Bob McNair for donating $10,000 to a political group that opposes the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO).

The headline of Kluwe’s very heated letter to McNair reads as follows:

McNair’s $10,000 donation was confirmed by Campaign for Houston spokesman Jared Woodfill who said that the donation “was very exciting for us” (via Katherine Driessen of chron.com).

As for Kluwe’s letter, he gets quite passionate against McNair about the negativity, hate and obstacles the gay and lesbian community and the transgender society have to deal with on a daily basis from folks who do not support their way of life.

Kluwe really sticks it to McNair throughout his entire letter and brings up his struggling Texans NFL team to question whether McNair is either ignorant or just callous about the against the LBGT and transgender folks of society.

Kluwe’s lengthy letter to McNair concludes..

It should definitely be interesting to see if McNair has any response to Kluwe’s quite opinionated letter that really drags the old owner through the ringer.
