'Duck Dynasty' Under Fire Following Star's Incendiary Anti-Gay Remarks

[Papageorgio]

Having tolerance does not mean blindly agreeing to everything a liberal tell us.

I agree, I was presenting the fallacy that liberals believe that Conservatives are not tolerant. Which I find amusing as liberals do not like any idea that conflicts with their belief system.

Seeing as most of what they believe is f****** wrong that happens a lot you would think they'd be used to it by now. I am just getting tired of the secular fascists you don't want to believe in God that's fine that does not mean that you have the right to call you destroyed every person who does. This does not mean you as in I'm talking about you personally I'm using you in a general term

I believe in God, I respect those that don't. I am tolerant of their opinion, I think liberals are not tolerant of views that don't align with theirs.

It is interesting how liberals are now free market libertarians when it comes to allowing a corporation to fire or suspend it's workers for stating their religious/moral or political views.

So I will pose a scenario to them. Let's say there was an employee for a major corporation, like Dow Chemical. This individual happened to be an Atheist. He goes on facebook(outside his work environment mind you), and criticizes Christmas, saying God is not real and Jesus is a myth. Dow Chemical finds out and fires him. Are you saying Dow Chemical has the right to fire someone for criticizing a religion?

I think it would depend on how he was presenting himself and how public that was.

It would quite another thing if he presented that viewpoint on LinkedIn, which is a professional website, opposed to Facebook, which isn't. If she presented herself as "I'm an Employee of Dow Chemical and I think Jesus sucks," she probably would be in violation of company policies.

But at my current job, a lady was fired because she posted a resume on Craig's List and said that "The company was bought out and she didn't feel comfortable there", and she was promptly fired for it.

Now, personally, I think that this is what happens when you have "right to work", non-union, "At-Will" employment, where workers have no rights, you should expect this sort of ass-hattery.

So you oppose both men being fired?

I would imagine that the Duck Dynasty stars have made so much money off of their show that if they wanted, they could buy all the rights to the entire A&E network. Then they could be the ones to tell the present owners to take a long walk off a short pier.
That is the American way, is it not?

This controversy cements my belief that those who preach tolerance are usually the most intolerant.

The left is a very intolerant group of people, they only believe in tolerance of those that agree with them. Sad to be that narrow minded.

Well they have minimals wants: sex with whoever and whatever, kill the result if it's inconvenient, and drugs and just basically let somebody else support all of it. That's it. Their needs are few. so you can see when one of the 3 needs is threatened, they go ballistic.

How do you break a morality clause by being moral?

Hating people isn't moral.

The Duck guy said nothing hateful, he quoted his view from the Bible, when he was asked the question. He said that certain people would not inherit God's Kingdom. I think people made way to much out of a statement, but GQ is really happy because now they will sell more magazines, and they have been relevant in decades.

Telling people they deserve to be tortured for all eternity because of who they love isn't hateful?

Sounds pretty hateful to me. I mean, I get annoyed with a lot of you assclowns here, but I wouldn't wish for ANY of you to be tortured for all eternity.

True.

And with their own network family members could broadcast their ignorance and hate to their hearts’ content.

Apparently most conservatives don’t understand that, they’re more interested in indulging their victim mentality, whining about ‘being silenced,’ and exhibiting their ignorance in general.

He's so tolerant he gives them nice blanket statements to keep them warm.

What a guy.

If that is what you believe.

 

[kiwiman127]

Something to think about:
I wonder why it is that homosexuals, including those who claim to be Christians, almost always are members of the Democrat party, whose voting base is made up of people who support an
anti-Christian agenda.

There are some elements within the Democratic Party that may be anti-Christian, but in general, most aren't. Your post is one of those exaggerated partisan statements.
When people note extreme elements within either party and then generalize the extreme elements as the entire party, that is exaggerated partisan hackery.

Killing babies in the womb is worse then believing sin keeps you from heaven. Supporting said baby killing is worse as well. I am guessing this why so many progressives wish to deny God.

You do know ignorance means lack of knowledge right? Because the only one showing it is you

Funny how the right treats everyone as if there are only two choices

1) Agree with them
2) Be "intolerant" by not agreeing with their intolerance

I don't need anyone to agree with me, I am not going to push my belief system on you, the left wants to push their beliefs on everyone else.

Of course you dont need anyone to agree with you. You just proclaim that anyone that doesnt agree with you is intolerant. Which is the same thing you're claiming the left is doing except you attempt to shame someone into not disagreeing with you

You can choose to believe in God or not, that is a choice. A man quotes the bible and gay groups get offended and work to silence his opinion. That is intolerance.

No they disagree with his opinion and his employer decided to punish him. I guess the employer cannot express themselves either. Everyone has to just accept the intolerance or be called intolerant. Suuuuuuure

If you believe in God, the left will start calling you ignorant. They want all religion put away and silenced, that is intolerance.

You sound stupid unless you believe there arent any "leftist" in church. Stop being a drama queen.

Conservatives talk on radio show and the left wants to pass a law to limit their time, that is intolerance.

You are gay, an atheist, pro-abortion, fine by me. Do I need to listen or watch you and your ideas? No, do I try to stop your ideas? No. I am tolerant.

Oh god, Tell A&E they are not allowed to make business decisions unless you deem them valid. Because obviously you are the Arbiter of what is acceptable.

If everyone were fired for thinking or even saying anything against gays, we'd be at 95% unemployment. If I were in Phil's shoes, I'd make no more mention of this, and simply sever ties with A&E and move on to another network. or take my money and retire. Unfortunately all this does is once again fuel the idea that the poor gays are "victims" once again. I am sick of it. It plays right into the gays' hands. Once again they are center of attention. They are eating it up. And just because someone doesn't think being "gay" is normal, that doesn't mean we hate them or fear them (don't make me laugh!) or anything else. It is just not normal. Period.

How do you know what is 'normal'? Ten percent of the population is homosexual. Animals engage in same sex sexual activity. Prove, other than what your religion says, that homosexual behavior is not 'normal.' Empirically, with solid, indisputable, scientific evidence.

do 2 male ducks mate for life? do 2 male lions have sex to the exclusion of the females? It is not NATURE. And it is MY opinion. I"M not "relgious" necessarily either. It's my opinion, it's common sense. We are all entitled to our own opinions. Or are liberals the only ones whose opinion matter? If you don't LIKE my opinion that mating for life with teh same gender and a man putting his member in another man anus, TOUGH! Get over it. I couldn't care less. I don't NEED to provide proof. YOU provide "proof" to ME that animals of the same gender actually are having sex, and not some sort of dominant posturing crap. YOU are entitled to YOUR opinion and I to mine. But you liberals can't stand any opinion that isn't your. YOU the most intolerant!!

In fact, you like the way animals live? They eat their young, the males kill the babies to make the mother go in heat faster, the ones who aren't at the top of the food chain get killed and eaten. And so unlike you libs, they are self-reliant. If they don't hunt, they don't eat. They alone are responsible for themselves, not some "animal government." If one of them does see another same gender goings on, they are within their rights to stop it if they so desire. There is no political correctness in the animal world. They animals live under a creed that no liberal can grasp. You'd never make it as an animal. You can ACT like animals, but that's the extent of it.

There has been some evidence of homosexual activity between female dolphins.

I have witnessed a domesticated goose and several ducks gang raping a Mallard drake on the shore of a country club lake, I've seen dogs humping each other...and there are the Bonobo chimps.

List of animals displaying homosexual behavior - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Main article: List of mammals displaying homosexual behavior

Selected mammals from the full list:

Bison[16]
Brown Bear[17]
Brown Rat[18]
Cavy[18]
Caribou[19]
Cat (domestic)[20]
Cattle (domestic)[21]
Chimpanzee[22][23][24][25]
Common Dolphin[26]
Common Marmoset[27]
Dog[28]
Elephant[29]
Fox[30]
Giraffe[3][31][32]
Goat[16]
Horse (domestic)[33]
Human[34][35][36]
Koala[37]
Lion[34]
Orca[26]
Raccoon[38]

The argument that homosexuality is therefore natural (occurs in nature) is undeniable. This does not make it normal.

Cracker Barrel flip-flops, puts 'Duck Dynasty' products back on shelves

Dec. 22, 2013, 5:09 PM EST
TheWrap

Well, that didn't take long. The Cracker Barrel restaurant chain, two days after removing "Duck Dynasty"-related products from its shelves, said Sunday it was putting them back - and apologized to fans of the reality series.

Cracker Barrel began yanking Duck Dynasty-related items from its stores on Friday in the wake of patriarch Phil Robertson's inflammatory comments to GQ magazine about gays and blacks, saying it didn't want to offend fans of the A&E hit reality series.

...

Here's the entire post from Cracker Barrel:

"Dear Cracker Barrel Customer:

When we made the decision to remove and evaluate certain Duck Dynasty items, we offended many of our loyal customers. Our intent was to avoid offending, but that's just what we've done.

You told us we made a mistake. And, you weren't shy about it. You wrote, you called and you took to social media to express your thoughts and feelings. You flat out told us we were wrong.

We listened.

Today, we are putting all our Duck Dynasty products back in our stores.

And, we apologize for offending you.

We respect all individuals right to express their beliefs. We certainly did not mean to have anyone think different.

We sincerely hope you will continue to be part of our Cracker Barrel family."

Way to go Jizzhat. We already have at least 5 (6? 7?) threads on Cracker Barrel. Way to check the board. Nothing like the old scattergun approach.

 

[Gracie]

I can't remember where I read it...but the BIGGEST stock holder of A&E is...are ya ready for it?...are ya sitting down?.....a muslim.
I don't believe all I read, but I thought I would put it out there. Disney owns A&E...or major stock. But some muslim guy owns a chunk of it as well. Supposedly.
