The Fallout begins... quite a few people are not happy that Arnold told them to 'Screw Your Freedoms'.   

Here is Aaron's response....

aaronsingerman - REDCON1 can’t support Arnold anymore!

For the last 15 years I've been attending the Arnold Classic, and for at least a decade I've been a sponsor of the contest. I've loved Arnold as long as I remember, and credit him for my initial interest in bodybuilding and fitness. I've looked at him as a role model. A guy who had nothing and no advantages, who never made an excuse, and created tremendous success. He became an icon based on his work ethic, his charisma, and his grit.

It's with a heavy heart and some genuine sadness, that REDCON1 has decided to discontinue any and all support for the Arnold Classic and the other Arnold related events around the world. We've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars being a top sponsor of the event, and this year the exclusive sponsor of the webcast, but we can't in good Conscience continue to support & be involved with someone who has such diametrically opposed beliefs.

Anyone who says "screw your freedoms" is un-American, and REDCON1 is a patriotic pro-freedom brand. We support freedom of choice. We don't want Arnold censored or cancelled. We just can't support his opinion with our dollars.

Wow. That's taking a stance.

However it turns out for Aaron and RedCon, he took his shot.

Give him props for the courage of his conviction.

Arnold will probably have him cancelled, though.

That’s actually quite a sacrifice, it takes real guts to cut a loss like that over your morals.

That's honorable. Aaron's stance is that of a true American.

Arnold should have known better, but it isn't the first time Arnold has made a very stupid mistake.

I'm not willing to throw away Arnold's contributions, just because there are a couple butthurt posters.

Politics have ruined most of your minds. Most of it, is probably hearsy anyway.

Masks vs. Unmasked....It's like Giants vs. Patriots.
