According to TMZ.com, Ronnie posted the following message on his account.

"I apologize to my fans, In the heat of the moment i said a lot of things i didnt mean and im very sorry."

Footage of the antigay rant was revealed this week. In the leaked clip, Ronnie is seen yelling "f**king f**got" and a "f**king queer" right before he beats a man on the boardwalk.
