I think they’re contending that he’s perpetuating a stereotype by claiming they were happy and singing.

Never Duck Hunted before,, but may have to buy a Duck Call from them and hang in the truck to show support...

Whatever you decide to purchase make sure it is from "Duck Commander" (The Family business) and not "Duck Dynasty" (the A&E merchandising venue.)

Just saw this snippet in another story.....

"A&E Network has had to beef up security at its New York headquarters after receiving death threats and suspicious packages from people enraged about the network’s decision to suspend Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson."

I'm calling BS on that. Consider Phil wasn't "suspended" until the evening of the 18th, so for a "suspicious package" to arrive at the headquarters in time for it to be noticed and reported to the media, someone would have had to drop everything they were doing as soon as they heard about the suspension, grab whatever to make a package, and immediately send it off to the New York headquarters. Just a bunch of baloney.

It’s an upside down world.

Talking about anal sex is disgusting, but doing it is almost a sacrament. Never mind what else they do.

Unreal.

If you want to make a Conservative angry, tell them a lie; if you wan to make a Liberal angry, tell them the truth.

I bought my new Duck Commander duck call yesterday. Wearing it proudly on a lanyard. Saw two guys kissing at a bus stop and gave them a long “quuuaaaccckkk” out the window ...I didn’t have to say ONE word and totally infuriated them. Want to “fight back?” Buy a duck call and start having some fun with these jerks.

Great idea. Someone posted last night that a certain RINO politician was greeted yesterday with duck calls from the crowd. Something tells me that a new form of protest has just been born.

Obviously, you actually haven’t read what Phil said. He didn’t say anything close to that.

Thanks for promoting my tag line :-)

[gibsonguy]

Well OK then. I guess I was bit flummoxed because I wasn’t thinking like a professional victim. Of course, as long as you think like one you will be one.

[sport]

I probably did miss the point then.

[upcountryhorseman]

Where is the “scandal”? He just expressed his opinion!

[knittnmom]

Yup. And there are some very experienced ‘victims’ in America.

From the article, I thought she was from the Blaze.

Ayyyyyyye LIKE it!

A & E should have learned something from the JCPenney homofest.

[papertyger]

I thought that she was from the Blaze.

No, The Blaze thought her comment on MSNBC's Morning Joe show was newsworthy.

I have to agree. Anyone of influence who is "disgusted" by traditional values needs to be identified for the rest of us.

[NorthMountain]

Most of the Duck Commander calls are all plastic ... will easily survive being kept in pocket or purse.

QUAAAAACK Quaaack Quack quack ..

Why? Didn't you know A&E stands for Arths and Entertainment? ;o)

He never said Civil Rights Movement nor happier. He simply stated the blacks he worked with were happy, Godly people.
