The suspension of Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson by the A&E Network after making controversial remarks in GQ magazine regarding homosexuality has been called a business decision. But now Douglas County Sheriff Phil Miller is making a business decision of his own.
Miller announced on his personal Facebook page Friday night that A&E would no longer be welcomed to film or produce any of its programs or series with the help of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office or its facilities. "A&E has suspended Phil Robertson for talking about his conservative Christian beliefs," Miller wrote." None of us are without sin and I am not judging anyone. I am sure A&E made what they believe is a good business decision. Many people who disagree with A&E might choose to remain silent and there was a time when I might have done the same, but no longer. In my mind the punishment is unreasonable.
"I know it will not matter to A&E, but it will make me feel better. A&E has produced more than a half dozen programs with the assistance of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office. They will not do any more with my assistance while I am sheriff. It is time for someone other than Hollywood and the news media to stand up for what is right!"

I think you read something into it that was not there.
Glad to hear it! Good for him!!
If you are referring to the FR bookmarks, click on your name to get your profile, then click on the “Links” tab. If you are referring to your browser’s, then they’re either called “Bookmarks” (Firefox) or “Favorites” (IE). The exact configuration of your browser will vary.
I’ve always preferred having the bar at the top full of menu items, but I see IE has gotten away from that as a default. You can get it back, though. Press “Alt” and you’ll see the menu bar at the top appear temporarily. You can make it permanent by clicking “View” and select “menu bar” from the “Toolbars” sub-menu.
They all look homosexual.
But maybe it’s just the lighting.

In my opinion that plan ain’t gonna’ work.
That’s really awesome!!
As a small aside, I don’t know about GA, but in many (most?) western states, the sheriffs hold more power than anyone else in office. They might be the key to restoring the Constitution.
Lol, that'd be a huge draw if the UFC could arrange it...
Jeez, what is it with people this morning?
Book me a dozen front row tickets to see that please! ;)
Willie Robertson is a lucky guy....

[1} Supposed to be a different channel than the Military Channel.
Yep, to have a dad like Phil; or were you referring to someone else. lol
It was a separate channel on FiOS
Did you notice how well that camo top works?
Me too.
I can’t imagine this is legal. Did he consult the Mayor, Governor, Federal Government? Anything? Does he run the permit office? I think this is a guy just talking.
Sounds like a plan, brother!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Go Douglas County!
