Duck Dynasty Star Booted
Basically all he did was quote scripture!
Speaking with GQ, Robertson lamented that when "everything is blurred on what's right and what's wrong ... sin becomes fine." So just what qualifies as sinful in his book?
"Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there — bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men," he declared.
Phil probably should have cut himself off at this point (considering he's a national TV star), but instead he paraphrased Corinthians. "Don't be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers — they won’t inherit the kingdom of God," he warned. "Don't deceive yourself. It's not right."

#ThatAwkwardMoment when way more people watch a single episode of Duck Dynasty than have signed up for Obamacare...
So, #DuckDynasty takes off like wildfire because the Robertsons are true Americana and A&E suspends them for that? Idiots.
Welcome to the age of #LGBT fascism. A&E has reportedly fired Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson for speaking blunt truth about homosexual sin
#BOYCOTT @AETV FOR DENYING PHIL ROBERTSON of @DuckDynastyAE HIS RIGHT TO FREEDOM of SPEECH

"Dear A&E: There are more duck hunters than there are GLAAD members. Good luck with your ratings. And, hey, coexist, Jack!”
"Tolerance is allowed unless you are a white married heterosexual christian man"
"I stand with Phil Robertson... Period!!"
Hannity will be talking about Duck Dynasty on his program tonight.

Re: Duck Dynasty Star Booted
Freedom of speech. Freedom of a and e to fire him if they want unless it's on a prohibited basis. Seems to me like the bigger problem is that they are discriminating against him for his religious views...

Re: Duck Dynasty Star Booted
A&E's response should have been:
"Phil Robertson does not express the views of A&E, but he has the right to express his own views and beliefs."
As if.
They've just caused a firestorm by taking this action.
Is the Bible really going to be considered hate speech now?

When his comments to GQ hit DrudgeReport, and GLAAD issued their statement, I told a friend to watch how long it took A&E to react against him. Barely a few hours passed and they issued their dumb statement essentially putting him on leave from the show.
Makes me furious that such a small percentage has this much power.
I would love for the Robertson's to pull out of the contract with A&E and go on another channel.
As Larry the Cable Guy says, "What is this, Russia?"
