Kelly Stafford eviscerates Harrison Butker after he told women they’ve been ‘diabolically lied to’
Official licensed sports gear seller, Rally House, said their Kansas store had sold out of Butker shirts, news station KCTV5 reported.
“[Butker] has sold more than Kelce and Mahomes today, just the demand after the speech, it’s been men and women – it’s been both calling to get his jersey,” store manager Aaron Lewis said.
Mr Butker, who is staunchly Catholic, spoke of the pride he took in his faith, using it as a segue to criticise Pride Month and the LGBTQ+ movement.
“Not the deadly sins sort of Pride that has an entire month dedicated to it, but the true God-centred pride that is cooperating with the Holy Ghost to glorify him,” he said in the speech.
He went on to blast President Joe Biden’s pro-choice stance on abortion, slamming his “support for the murder of innocent babies”.
The Chiefs player also claimed that marriage and having children is where a woman’s true purpose lies. He dubbed women who follow career goals as a “diabolical lie”.
“I can tell you that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say that her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother,” he said.
A Change.org petition, calling for Butker’s dismissal from the Chiefs over his remarks, has garnered over 170,000 signatures.
