Liberal activists are at it again with another attempt to pressure TLC to cancel 19 Kids and Counting, the successful cable television show featuring the Duggar family and their pro-life values.
The Duggar familys central theme is their pro-life, Christian values and Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and their 19 children have been outspoken over the years in defending human life from abortion and promoting abstinence education.
But now, more than 90,000 people have signed an online petition that calls on TLC to cancel its popular 19 Kids and Counting series claiming the Duggar family engages in fear-mongering. Jim Wissick, of San Jose, California, wrote a letter to TLC, which was posted on the Change.org petition page, that accused the Duggar family of using their fame to promote discrimination, hate, and fear-mongering.
The petition was roughly 10,000 signatures away from reaching its goal of 100,000 by Thursday afternoon.
TLC needs to separate themselves from this bigotry and put an end to the Duggars show, Wissick argues, and hes also upset about Josh Duggars involvement with the Family Research Councils legislative group, FRC Action. Thats a pro-life group that has pushed for a ban on abortion after 20 weeks and stopping taxpayer funding of abortions. The petiton claims FRC is a hate group.
Because 19 kids is irresponsible, one signer of the petition said. The big ones raising the little ones. They are having way too many More importantly, there are other valued things a young woman can do besides get married and be pregnant a month later. I personally think they are sending a terrible message. There is more to life than being a human baby machine.
ACTION: Sign the Petition to SUPPORT the Duggar Family! Keep 19 Kids and Counting on the air!
A few months ago, when Jessa Duggar from 19 Kids and Counting, linked the Jewish Holocaust with abortion on an Instragram Post, some responded and said her statement was offensive.
She said: I walked through the Holocaust Museum again today very sobering. Millions of innocents denied the most basic and fundamental of all rightstheir right to life. One human destroying the life of another deemed less than human. Racism, stemming from the evolutionary idea that man came from something less than human; that some people groups are more evolved and others less evolved. A denying that our CreatorGodmade us human from the beginning, all of ONE BLOOD and ONE RACE, descendants of Adam.
The belief that some human beings are not fit to live. So theyre murdered. Slaughtered. Kids with Down syndrome or other disabilities. The sickly. The elderly. The sanctity of human life varies not in sickness or health, poverty or wealth, elderly or pre-born, little or lots of melanin [making you darker or lighter skinned], or any other factor.
May we never sit idly by and allow such an atrocity to happen again, she wrote. Not this generation. We must be a voice for those who cannot speak up for themselves. Because EVERY LIFE IS PRECIOUS. #ProLife.
Now we get down to what the gripe is about.
Ignore them. That’s 90,000 people who never watch the show anyway.
Another fine example of liberal “tolerance.”
There’s five hundred other channels promoting baby killing, homosexuality, beastiality, adultery, and witchcraft they can change to with the push of a button.
Did Terry Bean sign, or did he just want one of the male kids?
Don’t liberals lecture us that we need to be tolerant, understand differences among people, and that we should.live And let live???
Don’t liberals lecture us that we should not complain about offensive things on TV, and that we should just change the channel and not watch shows we don’t like?????
I don’t watch the show because I just don’t like it. In the old days this was enough. Today I get to force others to think the way I do...
I’d guess there are 90,001 that whised they had that king of family instead of the lifestyle they currently live. The 90,000 hate the Christian example being shown on TV. They more than likely hate Jesus and they probably hate themselves.
Are these the same 90K people who insist we tolerate all sorts of deplorable lifestyles?
there may be more to life than having babies, but in the big picture reproduction is all that really matters
Another fine example of liberal tolerance.
And, insanity. Liberals hate so much of everything including themselves they have literally driven themselves nuts.
...gee, image how better the world would be if YOUR mother felt that way...
Our holocaust has DOOMED MILLIONS to HELL for ETERNITY , while the Jewish Holocaust only had hundreds of thousands of EVIL GerMANS doomed to HELL for ETERNITY!!!
Dont’t thse 19K have a remote control or channel blocker and just don’t watch the the show.. facists.
You know that isn’t enough with busybody liberals.
Anyone know of petitions supporting the Duggars that we could sign?
I was signer number 272 of the Pro-Duggar petition.
If you wish to sign a in petition support of the Duggar family,
here is a link.
True! There's cooking, cleaning, laundry, hugging, teaching, laughing, crying, sacrifice, and selfless loving! You know, things that offend liberals to their core.
$100 to your favorite charity that says less than 10% of these Communuity Organizers ever watched the show!
How would it fly if someone made the same assertion about 19 illegal alien kids, or 19 welfare babies in the inner city fathered by one baby daddy studded out to six Godless breeder sows?
