Stone Cold Steve Austin Supports Gay Marriage, Social Media Echoes Support


WWE legend ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin is a supporter of marriage equality. The legendary wrestler posted a podcast in support of equality in July 2013, a clip that has just now started to gain traction on YouTube.


Perhaps because Steve Austin is usually a foul-mouthed tough guy, nobody bothered to really watch his video until a few publications began to recently pick it up. Now the video is a top Facebook Trending topic, with publications all over the United States reporting on the video.


In his typical upbeat style Austin proclaims, “any human being in the got-damn world who wants to get married, if it’s the same sex, more power to ‘em”


He then proclaims:



“What also chaps my ass, some of these churches have the high horse that they get on and say, “We as a church do not believe in that.” Which one of these mother*ckers talked to God and God said that same-sex marriage was a no-can-do? Can you verify? Can you give me some background on that 411?”
