ROBERTSON MADE ME FEEL UNSAFE IN MY OWN HOME
DAILY MAIL ^ | 12/29/2013 | Alex Greig and Ashley Coleman

A closeted gay student living in West Monroe, Louisiana has written a powerful essay, criticizing the town's most famous residents - Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson.

Robertson made headlines after issuing homophobic comments in a GQ article, at one point comparing gay sex to bestiality, which got him put on suspension by the A&E network. But the network announced yesterday that they would be reinstating Robertson to the show, who so far has remained unapologetic about the comments.

In an essay posted on Times-Picuyne columnist Robert Mann's blog, the communications student writes that Robertson probably didn't mean to hurt anyone with his statements, he nonetheless created a hostile environment.

'He encouraged - hopefully unintentionally - a two-week-long "fag bashing" in Monroe and around the world. He made me feel unsafe in my own home. I can't count how many times I heard "faggot" over the Christmas visit home.'

Spot on. Liberals are totally misnamed. They should be called “destroyers” or something.

"A closeted gay student living in West Monroe, Louisiana has written a powerful essay, criticizing the town's most famous residents - Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson.

"'He made me feel unsafe in my own home. I can't count how many times I heard "faggot" over the Christmas visit home.'"

Just a couple of obvious questions: if he's 'closeted,' why would he feel unsafe by the mere use of that pejorative? Sounds like a hoax-crime in the making to me.

And, where is he hanging out that he's hearing the word "faggot" so often? And why is he blaming Phil for his family or close friends using this term?

Also, liberals are the first to cry “threat” or “assault” from just opinions alone. They cry wolf all the time. A short history of the insane assassins, bombers and murderers of the 20th century would be a long list of liberal and liberal-minded people. Even Islam is proto-socialist.

“ROBERTSON MADE ME FEEL UNSAFE IN MY OWN HOME”

You have to understand that this is a tactic gays are using to justify restricting your freedom of speech. Thats how they rationalize making you shut up.

America has become quite the dark, evil place.

Not just America. This is a worldwide rot.

I wonder how much play this sort of thing would get if he said “Black people make me feel unsafe in my own home?”
