Jesse Jackson attacks Duck Dynasty star for “white privilege”
Legal Insurrection ^ | December 26, 2013 | Laurel Conrad

Posted on 12/26/2013 5:37:58 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr. is speaking out against Phil Robertson, star of A&E’s reality show “Ducky Dynasty,” claiming that Robertson’s comments to GQ reflect “white privilege.”

Jackson even compared Robertson to the bus driver who ordered Rosa Parks to move to the back of the bus in a statement obtained by ABC News:

“These statements uttered by Robertson are more offensive than the bus driver in Montgomery, Alabama, more than 59 years ago”

Jackson went on to state that,

“At least the bus driver, who ordered Rosa Parks to surrender her seat to a white person, was following state law. Robertson’s statements were uttered freely and openly without cover of the law, within a context of what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege.’”

According to ABC, Jackson is urging A&E to uphold Robertson’s suspension and requests an urgent meeting with A&E and Cracker Barrel executives.

That race pimp has made a fortune from his foul profession. He is not a reverend. He needs to drift off with rev. Al the race pimp slicked back hair thug. Join up with Quanel X in Houston. What tirds.

2DV, Jackson has ALWAYS wanted a war. He and his ilk thrive on fostering and maintaining the politics of victimhood that fuels the racial divide he so desperately needs to secure his own relevance.
Jackson, 0bama, Rangel, Sharpton, and all the rest; they need the dissension, the unrest, and the class/race hatred that are fomented by their rants and their ‘cause-of-the-day’.

Ignore Jesse Jackson—he’s irrelevant.

Is that how he pays the bills. One thing is for sure he has never worked.

Lives off the backs of the poor fools more stupid than himself who believe his BS.

Find me a war where the 12% beats the 72% and maybe I’ll understand his rationale.

Tommy R. Bennett has filed a complaint with the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations against the Rev. Jesse Jackson.

I remember when this accusation first surfaced. At the time I thought the accusers story believable, and rereading it now hasn’t changed my perception. It seems Jackson has homo tendencies and wanted sex with this openly homo man.

When you consider

Rev. Jesse Jackson, is unaware of First Corinthians, Ignores Planned Parenthood’s Black Baby genocide. Participates in the destruction of the family by cheating on his wife, Raised a corrupt politician Son, uses Anti-Semitic slurs, and practices a form of leftist McCarthyism.

then this is standard Jackson form

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Matthew 7: 21-23

Methinks Jesse should have focused on raising his son better (e.g., the convicted ex-Congressman).

It is obvious to anyone who has watched or listened to Phil Robertson that he is a committed Christian. He has given his personal testimony about how Jesus Christ saved his soul on numerous, numerous occasions. In fact, he speaks all over the country about his love of God. He has raised a family of Christian children. He quotes frequently from scripture. The very popularity of the show is based partly on the fact that Americans marvel that at the end of each show, he leads his family in a prayer before mealtime to thank God, in the name of Jesus Christ.

If the "Rev" Jackson were really a brother in Jesus Christ, he would be out there defending Phil Robertson, instead of attacking him.

Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.

Matthew 7: 15-20

At least Mr. Robertson was following God’s Law
