| comments right or wrong? |
We live in a world where we can say anything we want but does that make it right to make any kind of comment we want? We can learn a thing or two from Miami Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen was suspended for five games Tuesday because of his comments about Fidel Castro. Castro was a dictator whose authoritarian administration has overseen multiple human rights abuses both at home and abroad. The controversy that surrounds his comments are major Guillen told Time magazine he loves Castro and respects the retired Cuban leader for staying in power so long. I respect anyone who isn't afraid to speak there mind but their are some things that should be left unsaid. In the bible it says in Proverbs 18; 21 The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences. Maybe Ozzie Guillen never read that or he just had a moment but either way we can learn from this and see that a few words can get us in a lot of trouble. After things happen all we can do is move on and move forward at least Ozzie was a man about it and made a statement “I’m very sorry about the problem, what happened,” he said. “I will do everything in my power to make it better. ... I know it’s going to be a very bumpy ride.” Learn from your mistakes and try not to make the same once twice and be mindful of the words that come out of your mouth.
