We learned on Tuesday that ISIS has beheaded a second American journalist, Steven Sotloff, so naturally Sean Hannity went straight to Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson for analysis. (Hannity says he sees him mainly as a "minister," though you probably know Robertson as that guy who made offensive comments about gays, African Americans, marrying 15-year-old girls, etc.) "In this case, you either have to convert them, which I think would be next to impossible — I'm not giving up on them — but I'm just saying either convert them or kill them," said Robertson. "One or the other."Hannity predicted that overly sensitive media types would try to twist those remarks into something controversial. "I know there are going to be people that are always looking to jump on you ... and they're going to say, 'there goes Phil Robertson again,'" the host said.

Murica! Convert or die! Why would FOX News bring this wack job on their "news program" to have an analysis of the ISIS situation? You can be serious. :doh
 
Re: Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson on ISIS: ‘Convert Them or Kill Them’

I dont understand why people in your country listen to inbreeds.
 
Re: Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson on ISIS: ‘Convert Them or Kill Them’

I have no problem with what he said. ISIS is quite frankly barbaric. Although I admit that he's actually being nicer than me. IMO just kill all ISIS members straight out. ISIS kills women and children just because of a religion that they follow isn't theirs. They deserve no mercy imo.

Question, how do you negotiate with a people that tell you convert or die like ISIS has done? Thousands of people willing to do the most barbaric things to people that don't follow their religion. How do you deal with them?

We are talking about ISIS, not all Muslims here.

im not saying this is justification for our idiocy but...

Hitler is any better? don't go pointing fingers our way.
 
Re: Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson on ISIS: ‘Convert Them or Kill Them’

Hannity, what a joke. This is the expert he speaks to for the in depth news analysis.

Dumbed down TV for the masses.

I'm always fascinated by the obsession people that HATE Fox News have with them. Like...it DOMINATES their lives.
 
Re: Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson on ISIS: ‘Convert Them or Kill Them’

Yeah....because the head choppers are just doing their own thing, man! There's no good reason to be all harshing on some poor decapitators. I mean, that's what peace is all about, right? We let them lop a few noggins off, they get it out of their system and then we go in and offer them hugs, weed and a $15/hr job at Taco Bell and life is good!!

Doenst dominate my life at all. Saw a video on my news feed, decided to watch how dumb this segment turned out, and yup it turned out pretty damn simple.
 
Re: Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson on ISIS: ‘Convert Them or Kill Them’

I guess the question could be asked,
How is Robertson's comment any different from ISIS, reality.
One is a comment, the other is actually killing people who do not convert.

I dont think anyone is comparing the two. Just saying it was a dumb comment, dumb segment, and idiotic move by FOX to even bring this bafoon on.

Think of it any way you like, but it raises a good, question.
How do we in the west negotiate with a group,
that those are the only two options they offer, convert or die?

Recently means nothing.

I'd rather follow an inbreed than be so stupid as to follow a moronic mass murderer ;)

Hitler was running around alright, how many assassination attempts were made on him? 47 or something?

Is this even worthy of a response? You make an "argument" on the basis of something that happend 70 years ago and has no relevants in our modern thinking.

Reasonable question.

The issue with head choppers isn't their religion. They simply use religion as an excuse to chop heads and blow up people in public places. They could be atheists doing that stuff for all it matters.

I suspect that Phil Robertson would be just fine if they converted to Islam....the kind that's practiced peacefully around the world.

you assume an entire country of over 300 million is listening to a bunch of inbreeds.

I deemed you worthy of response still, mostly because I have respected your opinion many times in the past, and excluding that one, I still respect your opinions today.

I think Phil needs to go to Syria or Iraq and personally confront ISIS leaders and give them the choice that he's so easily able to voice from his little sanctuary nestled in the security of his home state in the U.S.

I'm betting that just before they behead him...he'll offer to give them a blow job in exchange for his life.

good.

Now...aside from the ludicrous part about attempting to convert them (which...come on...anyone that thinks they are going to convert a fundamentalist extremist...really?), what would you suggest be done with ISIS beyond killing them? \|Keep in mind...we are talking about people that are gleefully posting videos of butchering and beheading small children. Ready...go...
