It's not like the guy said we should put them in camps and fire up the ovens.  He said he doesn't understand it and he thinks it's a sin. 

Liberals always carry on about diversity.  How about diversity of opinion?  In reality they want diversity unless that diversity doesn't fit their world view.  More than a little bit of hypocrisy there.

Tell me one major industry where openly bashing of Gay/Lesbian groups will be taken as normal..

If you work in the world of Medicine, it is a huge disgrace to do so and you will get eliminated on the spot.

If you work in Business (my love), any financial firm figurehead will eliminate you on the spot.

If you work in the Law industry, it will not only cost you your job, it can potentially get you sued.

If you are a politician, forget about it, you will lose your campaign.

It's not just Hollywood. When at home, out with your friends or just shooting the shit on GetBig, it is perfectly normal to say whatever the hell you want, but in the wrong environment, it can not only cost you your job, but possibly your career.

I give him props for saying it in a polite manner and his reasoning behind it. The media blows it up more than the gay community.

Christians don't approve of the gay lifestyle- news flash, it clearly states it in the Bible. It's an abomination, period. It still doesn't mean that Christians won't be nice to gays. It just means they don't approve of the lifestyle.

I think he doesn't care for the fame anyway and will stand up for what he believes in just like most southern good ole boys.

The entire family are fame whores.  Someone who doesn`t want fame does not agree to be in  reality tv show, whore themselves out to walmart and try to cater to every moron of low intelligence in hopes of strengthening "their brand".

[The True Adonis]

Who would this man support?

Not the "duck dynasty" thats for sure.   Robert E. Lee was more enthralled with Judah P. Benjamin than anyone else in the Confederacy.

[galeniko]

So you're saying that those who support homosexuality now outnumber those who do not?

i dont know brother, in the so liberal freedom of speech of america usa, it shouldnt even be an argument either way.

i seem to be more liberal than most over there, i think its nobodys business what they do in their bed, as long theres code of consenta and legal age abided by

In Virginia in 1864 about young drummer boys dressed as women. One man wrote to his wife: "Some of the real women went, but the boy girls were so much better looking that they left. ...We had some little Drummer Boys dressed up and I'll bet you could not tell them from girls if you did not know them. ...Some of [the Drummer Boys] looked good enough to lay with and I guess some of them did get laid with. ...I know I slept with mine."

[The True Adonis]

My whole world is crumbling around me ...

And so it should.

Believing in a revisionist history does not do anybody any good.

Good for him, he's standing up to the corrupt liberal and despicable rise of immorality in the west. Whatever he be, in matters of gays he spoke the truth.

"If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives."  (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)

America has become a sponsor nation of the anti-christ to come. Nothing new here. Homosexuality is so rampant everywhere that homosexual lobbies have as much lobbying power as the zionist lobbyists.

Homosexuality is being promoted and defended left and right.

What are you talking about?  He has the right to say whatever he wants.  Others have the right to organize and disagree if they want.  If the network has to cave to pressure or if they decide its not in their best interest to continue the show, then so be it.

Don't care, I said

[Vince G, CSN MFT]

Absolutely.

Offending Gay/Lesbian groups is now akin to making a derogatory comment against any minority group.

Ultimately, it truly boils down to business. Network executives know very well how much money his comments can cost them. They also know the ramifications of letting his comments slide with no repercussion. If they were to just let the comment slide, the backlash wouldn't just be from Gay/Lesbian groups, but from straight groups alike that are against injustices.

The individual freedom of speech still remains intact. If tomorrow he walks away from Hollywood and picks up a job doing what the average person does, he can go on and rant about his views towards Gay/Lesbian groups as much as he wants. He might get fired from the vast majority of jobs if any employer hears him stating these things, but that's another issue altogether.

Public figures are judged by a completely different yardstick than just the average person.

"1"

Yep...I think he would have been fine just saying that he believes in heterosexual relationships.  That could easily be established listening to him.  The problem occurred when he started making derogatory insults towards gays and lesbians.

A&E suspended Phil Robertson indefinitely and I'd doubt that the family will go on without him so I think its the end of Duck Dynasty.

I don`t care what happens.  The majority of people in the United States support gays and gay marriage so your minority/majority argument is nonsense anyways.

Besides, its the networks decision totally.  If the morons who like Schmuck Dynasty still support them, then they will find a way to do so.  Let the market decide.

That's a load of bullshit. That's like saying majority of Americans support all the wars and the trillions of dollars of debt because tv said so.

There is no way that Americans, a nation that is christian and viewed as such world wide (despite the government) would support homosexuality.

It is POLITICIANS and MEDIA that are making homosexuality 'acceptable'. The people do not support it just as they do not support the endless wars.

It's like saying EVERY and ALL Americans are totally ignorant and stupid, just because the loud spoken ones are.

[forillagorilla]

Expect that freedom of speech to get checked by someone elses freedom of speech.

Its about time these Duck Dynasty morons go away anyways.

Actually a few have advanced degrees and they are brilliant businessmen... Too rated show ever for their network.. They are many times over millionaires - but most importantly they are extremely happy and have incredibly positive attitudes... Good people... Yes - I have met them and have mutual friends so I know what I am talking about.. They do what they love and I have found that if you can love your work and most importantly maintain perfect positivity it is impossible to fail... There are setbacks but there is no reason that ANYONE can have unlimited success in life... Unfortunately most people just don't truly believe in themselves - because if you do there is no way you can fail... Not just talking about money either - thats the easiest part - true success and happiness is so much more

Lol fired from his own show for voicing his opinion?
There's so much wrong with this story I can't even begin to start with the insults.

How is it his own show?  Does he own the network?  Is he not employed by someone else?

He can say whatever he wants and the people he works for can fire him if they want.
