Complaint causes VA medical center to pull Duck Dynasty products (Bible-haters win again)

A Vietnam veteran has taken aim at Duck Dynasty products on sale at a Veterans Affairs Medical Center store in Albuquerque, and it looks like all the items in his cross hairs will be removed from the canteen's shelves.

Robert Anderson is one of many people upset over a magazine interview in which Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson made comments they found racist and homophobic. In the January issue of GQ, the 67-year-old TV patriarch calls homosexuality a sin, comparing it with bestiality. Robertson, who is white, also claims that African-Americans he knew during the Jim Crow era in the South "were happy."

On Dec. 27, Anderson -- who served in the Air Force in Vietnam in the 1960s -- wrote to the canteen that he was "greatly offend(ed) that the Veterans Administration Patriot Store would sell items promoting an entertainment group that clearly stands for racism and bigotry.

LGBT-friendly Veterans hospital pulls all Duck Dynasty items off it's shelves because one liberal got mad. Just forget about 99% of the veterans that go to the VA, who are by and large conservatives and love Duck Dynasty and agree with everything that Phil Robertson said about sodomites. Let one of these Bible haters open their mouth and they always get what they want. To hell with the majority.

I hope, if they pulled some items, they pulled them all. As well, they should pull all items for Left wing shows that spew hate. TO be safe, that probably means all television related products...

I wonder if anyone actually complained. I think the Obama Administration just wanted an excuse to take the side of homosexuals.

I think we know which side.

"Robertson, who is white, also claims that African-Americans he knew during the Jim Crow era in the South "were happy."

How could commenting on your own personal observations be "racist"?

Robertson, who is white, also claims that African-Americans he knew during the Jim Crow era in the South “were happy.”

That’s a fact, Jack, no matter how they struggle to rewrite history.

Martin Luther Commie Plagiarist Gash-hound was the worst thing that ever happened to black Americans.

Want to do something? How about lodging a protest at every business that is closing for the only holiday that doubles as an atrocity?

Better yet, what difference does it make what color Robertson is?

So why don’t they instead put gay porn material? Cowards.

Well the stars and bars offend some folks and I guess see why
Nowadays there’s still a way to show your southern pride
The only thing that’s patriotic is the old red, white, and blue
It’s green and gray and black and brown and tan all over too

Might add;

If you’re a boy looking for a girl or a girl looking for a boy, get on some duck dynasty camo gear and let your hetrosexuality show

These iggied lefty bendover boys , whether Vietnam Vets or not, refuse to leave us red necks alone.

Eff them and their continuing attempt to censor the Robertsons.

They all can just go back to their blow and suck culture,
be the sickos they are in quiet, and leave the rest of us alone.

A man has the freedom to buy what he wants , where he wants, and this ash-hat wants to take that freedom away?Let them try.

“sell items promoting an entertainment group that clearly stands for racism and bigotry.”

said the oh so tolerant vet

[Arm_Bears]

So let me see—If the criterion for action is a single complaint (alleged), then shouldn’t a complaint about the presence of a latent-fag Air Force officer at the VA Hospital be more than sufficient grounds to deny said latent-fag Air Force officer all future medical treatment?

According to the UCMJ not only is sodomy a crime, so is oral sex.

On the larger point though, libs are like muslims, ONLY their views are allowed.

And most of this started under George W. Bush. Barry Sinclair has only expanded it. With republicans like little
George who needs democrats?

[prof.h.mandingo]

Figures it’s the Air Force. Flame on. LOL.

“According to the UCMJ not only is sodomy a crime, so is oral sex.”

Or, as it used to be known, oral sodomy.

That dude should be wearing a man burka.

I (and probably a couple thousand veterans) are offended that the VA would kowtow to a fringe group that clearly stands for sexual deviancy and mental illness.

(Note: the above should not be construed as a claim by me to be a US military vet. I have not served in the Armed Forces of the United States.)
