    See the BIGOTRY of the LEFT, as they claim to "protest bigotry"?

    Rural Americans know more about living Life , harmony with Nature, etc.,than every one of the rats trapped in their urban cages, put together.

    Hypocrisy =Left.

    Sadly not everyone that disagrees with you or finds your homophobic ways to be horrid is from the left. :roflol: I don't know what nature has to do with all of this but I love nature and I spend more time in it than I do on this forum. At least more than some of you spend talking about a TV show and how much you hate dem homo-sex-u-awls. And I love how you yourself are a hypocrite by going on and showing that not only are you homophobic but most likely a racist with what you have to say about those that live in urban areas.

    But you are a victimizer trying to act like a victim. Typical for this forum. Continue on! :popcorn:

    Sadly , not everyone who disagrees with your bigotry toward those who oppose homosexualty are form rural areas.

    Research the CDC FACTS about the public health nightmare of male homosexuality,and how, since we began actively promoting it in our schools, HIV/AIDS infections among minor males, as young as 13, are SOARING.

    Great moe Gay Guevaras; great move.

    We should be DISCOURAGING this behavior, not PROMOTING it.


    I oppose male homosexuality,and our promotion of it, for MEDICAL REASONS.

    Try the Truth, if you think you can handle it.

    Meanwhile, the People are Speaking....and it is THUNDEROUS:


    Less than two days after a Southern restaurant chain pledged to pull Duck Dynasty merchandise from its shelves, the company is reversing course, ABC News reports.

    In a Facebook post, Cracker Barrel — the first major retailer to take a stance on Phil Roberston’s controversial statements — said it would continue to sell some Duck Commander merchandise but would continue to evaluate the products.

    “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,” the company wrote in a Facebook post.

    There is no exclusive connection between homosexuality and AIDS or HIV and I know you can't prove otherwise. :smile: You have no medical proof.

    And where is this thunder? He's not back on TV and probably won't be any time soon and uh...so some Southern food chain, that frankly isn't that grand anyways, went from not selling their stuff to selling their stuff again. Wow...oh wow...thunderous...yet two more states made gay marriage legal this past week. Yea, you guys are thunderous with your homophobic hate. Real threatening.

    What ever happened to free market republicans?

    Seems they don't want to follow their own policies.

    is Cracker Barrel doing it to the Robertson family or A&E? who gets the lion's share of merchandising?

    for what it's worth, DD gear has been on truckstop clearance shelves for weeks before this poop hit the fan.

    Actually in addition to Cracker Barrel A&E network has caved. They have announced that Phil will be on the next season of DD. Which I will not watch as I did not watch any other season.

    Maybe it was not him alone but someone made enough noise to make the network back down.

    BTW no one claimed an EXCLUSIVE connection.

    They fight bigotry .... With bigotry . It is quite comical .

    - - - Updated - - -

    Protesting , on either side , is a good representation of a open market ... What regulates an open market is word of mouth . I haven't seen any on the right calling for the government to force AE to show DD. If I missed them , by all means show me .

    Cracker Barrel is a big employer of gays....so that is understandable but what is funny is the Duck Dynasty brand belongs to A&E....hahahaha! Phil Robertson could care less.

    How about you educate yourself on this topic before you start crapping in threads regarding it? Phil isn't missing ANY time. Next year's episodes are already taped; A&E already said they're airing them.

    And you continue to babble without the slight clue about which you're babbling.

    I never watched it. I simply hate reality TV.

    The one thing about the controversy I find interesting is that it will probably boost ratings for the show which was already huge.

    This means more $$$$ for the stars and the networks.

    One almost wonders if the whole thing was a brilliant marketing scheme.

    Yeah, this was all a show to keep the whiney gays from getting hurt feelings. In the end no one gives a crap except the gays. Why is everyone so protective of the gays feelings?

    AIDS/HIV is not a homosexual disease and you still haven't proven that. All you keep proven is the great amount of hate that you have in your heart.

    And to the other angry person who responded to me, I forget your handle, but A&E already tapped most of the season. They aren't going to tape anymore with the guy in the show. After next season he won't be on the air anymore and probably never again. Thunderous...thunderous yall are. More and more states are ending marriage segregation. Keep kicking and screaming while most of you get left in the dust!

    In the US it is OVERWHELMINGLY a disease among men having sex with men, (aka; HOMOSEXUALS), and none of your childish word dancing can change that FACT.

    I , most CERTAINLY, have proven that FACT, unless you know more about it than the CDC. :roll:

    As I said, come back when you are emotionally mature enough to discuss this issue HONESTLY.

    But , of course, now it's time for another asinine Leftmeme: anyone daring to disagrree with the Leftbullcrap, must be "angry".

    Nothing more BIGOTED than the LGBT Media Attack Apparatus, complaining about "bigotry".

    Hypocrisy = Left.

    As the other guy I was never angry that is your imagination.

    And once again no one stated it was a homosexual disease. You keep attempting to argue against what no one said.

    A&E initially stated he would not be on the show at all they have caved.

    I still won't watch it but clearly many others will and your prediction is as accurate and sound as today's horoscope

    He never said it was a homosexual disease. Why would he need to prove something he never stated or claimed?

    He statments about HIV/AIDS are not homophobic either but merely accurate in a scientific/medical sense.
