Duck Dynasty Debate
Comments

Why is everyone saying he is ignorant amd uneducated? He has a college degree amd started a multimillion dollar business. Not very ignorant or uneducated. And the use of the term redneck in these posts is bigoted. Not just non-white non-Christian homosexuals can be offended.0

nice post !, but on the AMT most people think a person is a biggot or a racist if they don't agree with majority here...kind of funny how they sling the same hate and biggotry that they accuse others of but to them they are "always right". but calling someone uneducated and redneck or using the term dick dynasty is no different than useing the words fag, nigger,white trash or raghead to discribe someone else,infact there will sure as hell be someone on here will be offended because of these words I used to make a point...but that's the train. :fp:

I guess that just means you are okay with the inaccurate generalizations he made...and by that I mean him thinking all African-Americans were happy and did not hate whites before Civil Rights.
I know he said he personally never saw them unhappy, but he also stated all were happy, too.
really man he said that and you find it offensive ? so all the black's he knew or knows are happy ....so what ? this is getting like a modern day witch hunt,why don't people start diesecting jessie jacksons or al sharpton comments and lets see what we can make of them.

heres the thing as far as I can see it, whatever thats worth anyway.
He exercised his freedom to speak his opinion. Dont like it? good. Fact is he can say what he wants, up to yelling fire in a crowded movie theater.
A+E exercised their right to suspend or otherwise fire an employee for expressing those views as a rep OF their network. Make no mistake, him sitting for that interview wasnt going to happen without him being on that show. So therefore, interviewed as a cast member, put him in a bind. Speak his mind freely? or use a little more sense in what of his opinion to share. I might have chosen a little more tact.
Personally I think we are still generations away from these thoughts and attitudes as a prevailing way of thinking in some areas of the country. Personally I think there will ALWAYS be some degree of it._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

If God is really up there... he'd kinda speed up this process so we can all move on. Right?"My brain's a good brain!"0 -

Phil Robertson-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. Don't deceive yourself. It's not right."

Certainly not the first, no. Had he left it at "the adulterers, the idolaters, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers" he might have been OK. He probably could have even argued away "the male prostitutes." But "the homosexual offenders?" That's over the top.___________________________________________

I'm not offended he said he personally saw no black people sad or that were racist. That is great!
BUT!
Then he said ALL blacks lived okay before civil rights. THAT was stupid and ignorant.~Carter~

honestly my friend that is a matter of opinion,just as adultry is an offense and that's where he seemed to be coming from with that,to a Christian they are both offenses.

I started seeing pictures of some of the "cast" before they grew their beards long. This show is a total fake.
Hats off to them for coming up with the idea and transforming themselves into bearded rednecks but that's not who they are (at least the kids).Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Interesting thought. Come up with something that gets peoples attention (negative or positive) and cash in. Great idea if one is into "we're only in it for the money" (thank you, Mr. Zappa) but not such a good idea for anyone with any scruples.
