You can speculate about a lot of things, but unless you have some basis/evidence for it, I just don't see the point of throwing it out there. Priefer hasn't said anything about Kluwe harassing him, so why would someone speculate that he was?
P.S. I've also been vocal as hell about the issue of gay marriage

A quote from Kluwe himself in a letter to a Baltimore politician. Unfortunately for Kluwe this could be used as VALIDATED evidence that Kluwe is willing to harass others that disagree with his position, so i think theres a clear basis for the speculation now whether im right or wrong is a different argument. Priefer hasn't stated anything because he has not had too. And why would Kluwe say that he harassed Priefer.

In all this, the purpose of message boards often hinges on speculation.

I think it is fair to wonder if there was some friction in the workplace per the letter from Kluwe prior and apparently Kluwe claims to be an Atheist. Such beliefs generally aren't a part of the workplace however, we know football players spend a lot of time together, that has to be considered, training camp, bunking together and so on. Also, there have been plenty of football players who have worn their faith on their sleeves, it be Tebow, Randall Cunningham or Herschel Walker as examples.

But another thing of interest is just Kluwe's position, he spoke on the issue of same-sex marriage, he had the right. We can think of how it might compare with other individuals not as high-profile as Kluwe.

What if an employee for a company puts bumperstickers on their car that indicate they were for Same-Sex Marriage back in 2012, such bumperstickers do exist so in the parking lot, everyone can see your car and make their own conclusions.

Then, you have a boss who sees this and makes the alleged statements that Kluwe says Priefer made. Then you have an interesting situation. Then eventually at some point you are let go from working for that company. That would appear on the surface to be unfair. So, there are bound to be things we don't know, their might have been problems in the locker room so we will see.

Then you are hired and fired by another company so maybe your beliefs aren't why you were let go.
