Duck Dynasty Phil Robertson fired over GQ interview.

Geeze, the fags sure get butt hurt easily!

Jep's wife has a twitter account and she was asked about that. She asked Phil and he said that never came up.

It wasn't praying as a whole, it was them editing out the part at the end of the prayer where he says "in Jesus' name".

I'll bet you there's not, there's no way he'd have done the show if he couldn't speak his mind, and there's been evidence of that throughout the history of the show. For example, A&E didn't want to end the show with the family around the table praying before they eat and Phil said that if they were just going to edit that part out then they were waisting time filming because that's been a big part of who they are as a family. If they didn't have that in the show then there was no show.

I didn't realize Phil has a masters degree. He was the starting QB at Louisiana Tech for two seasons while Terry Bradshaw was on the bench.

He knew what questions were going to come up and probably had a pretty good idea what the outcome be.

Had Phil liked football more than fishing, Terry Bradshaw might not have been the star quarterback he once was. The entire reason Bradshaw got his start was because Phil liked to fish more than play football. The book that Willie wrote called The Duck Commander Family is a pretty good book and gives you a lot of background info on the family growing up, like how poor they were. Well, up to the point they started selling duck calls.

A&E brought Dog back after calling someone a ninja, but this is unacceptable? Come on.... Like I said in a thread yesterday, this world was a better place to live in before people started thinking everyone cares if they are offended.

it’s that entitlement, everyone wants to feel important and to be a part of something. I find it funny that this world was found on freedom from religious persecution and here we are, persecuting a man for his beliefs. Not the first time, and certainly not the last.

This country is being overrun by hypocrites and people who are just as happy to push their beliefs on you as they are to bitch about you when you do the same.

If you can't watch that show and laugh, there is something wrong with you. Even if you don't have anything in common with them, it's still hilarious. Do you know how many shows I can sit down and watch with my kids? Very few. Even a lot of the cartoons on the kids channels are not age appropriate.

We live in the United States of the Offended.

Im sure he knew that A&E would be unhappy unhappy unhappy that he said what he said, but I doubt he cares. He expressed his opinion based on his religious beliefs, and also that he wasnt the one to judge it. Personally, I dont share his opinion, but I stand behind the guy for standing up for his beliefs; even if they arent popular or PC. I may have to go buy a T-shirt with his face all over it, its hard to trip and fall in a wallmart without hitting one on the way down.

I'm sure there is something in his contract about public speaking. Just like Hank Williams jr. and Paula Dean got fucked around in this fucked up PC world we live in.

Never watched the show but it seems like what he said is just some guy's opinion that as a citizen of a country that values the freedom of speech, he is allowed to have. So he offended like 1% of the global population by saying that he disagreed with their lifestyle choices, who gives a damn? It doesn't look like he said anyone was a bad person or condemned them to hell like many hardcore Christian people do.

I still have no clue why anybody watches that crap, but whatever. So a guy says something even remotely controversial that is making millions of dollars as an actor. How is that a shock that he's fired? Lol

No kidding.

[O.C.]

I watched it up until this season when it became a platform for in episode commercials i.e. Jerky and Rollo's. But I think he has a right to say how he feels and let the chips fall where they may. Personally I respect him not for his beliefs but for having the guts to state them in public when he knows the potential backlash.

[Broncojohnny]

I don't get the show and have never watched it but I will now. We need more people who aren't afraid to speak their mind in this country, no matter what their opinion is.
