Maybe it's the first in a chain of Duck Diner restaurants around the country!
Nice try.
I cut down the comment on the facebook page to not post his name, etc. According to his tagline on FB he's a conservative. I read that as good 1st hand information for the story...confirming that 'only' the 'Phil' products were targeted.
Check out the FB page link.
Mine:
I see you have removed selected merchandise from your shelves.
Funny, I have just removed selected restaurants from my list of places to eat.
I read that book and it is such a heart rending but uplifting and honest account of a soul in search of God.....and finding Him.
Because, if they wanted to boycott A&E they could pull the A&E merchandise. They said they are not pulling Duck Commander merchandise. I think it is a valid question. I’m not sure what you mean by “Nice try”. Could you clarify that? It’s pretty vague.
Play dumb, go in and ask where the Duck Dynasty stuff is. When they tell you they don’t sell it anymore say well too bad I guess I will come back later. They want confrontation, don’t give them the satisfaction.
Just damn!!! I really loved their pancakes too.
The odd thing is that many people already avoid “Cracka’s Barrel” because some local outlets (years ago) were accused of not hiring openly-gay staff (which may or may not have been true).
great idea!...I could also say I am looking for Phil’s book!
Cracker Barrel is pulling Duck dynasty products licensed to A&E .. The Duck commander is the family’s products they will continue to sale ....the Press release is vague.
My e-mail to Cracker Barrel:
By removing “selected” Duck Dynasty gear from your stores, I must say my imminent switch to Waffle House is looking better by the second.
I left baseball in ‘94 after the strike. I’ll leave you in the dust too (and won’t be back).
Nicely put. The problem is this: Liberals shun the standard. Selfishness is the enemy of the measure.
“...I left baseball in ‘94 after the strike...”

I thought I was alone in that fact!
We have lived in this neighborhood 12 years, and in this county over 30....
...I'm not just passing through
I realize times are difficult, but did he walk off that job, or does he plan on continuing to participate in the trampling of freedom of religion/freedom of expression? The employee has been placed squarely at the front of the battlefield of this particular skirmish. The war has reached his home. It seems to me that in the coming days we are all going to experience the volley sent across our personal bows and we will have to either return fire or surrender.
The Left has sent just such a volley here. Americans need to awaken to what this means.
I haven’t been tehre in years; now I won’t be going back, for sure.
Outside the Beltway, it's very popular with the Bible-believing, gun carrying, traditional family oriented people.
Like JCPenny, Cracker Barrel will lean the biggest caveat in sales:
Know Your Customer.
Stupid move Cracker Barrel.
IF they’re pulling only Phil’s stuff....especially his book.....you can be sure they’re sending a message
Until such time as Uncle Si says something that offends the weak eared anti Christians.
