It appears ESPN has a double-standard on responding to political issues:

So in a country where we have done everything possible to undermine the LGBTQ community, we are suddenly lecturing Islam on homophobia. Oh.

But at least the author "gets it"

Quote:According to a 2015 Pew Research poll, a majority of Muslims in the Middle East, South Asia and Southeast Asia favor making sharia the official law in their countries –– with support often rising above 80%. Homosexuality also may be punishable by death in 10 majority Muslim nations in the Middle East and Africa, many of which practice some form of Sharia law. To ignore those facts and create a false equivalency between the tolerance towards the LGBT community in the United States –– where same-sex marriage is legal and 21 states have some form of anti-transgender discrimination laws on their books –– and many Arab nations is mindless pandering.

A radical Muslim shots up a gay bar and it's Christian's fault. You can't make this stuff up.
