'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E (W: 742)

Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

There's no such thing as racism against the majority.

Phil Robertson is the majority? I thought he was a man.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

White trash is defined by style, not skin color. Stop pretending that just any white person is called white trash.

are you really trying to pretend that some people dont consider all white people white trash? Come out of your box.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

Nobody has taken the idiot to task for saying he preferred vajayjays.

Perhaps a poll would decide which is best.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

He isn't white trash because he is white. He is white trash because he is trash.

and since he refers to himself as white trash, why shouldn't anybody else?

We are back to the N word controversy.

I've never known or heard of anyone calling all white people white trash. It has a specific meaning regarding style, ignorance and a general lack of effort to better oneself. Duck dude proved that part of his case, he is white trash.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

Obama is highly educated, brilliant and president of the US and some people still call him a nigger. It's not the same thing.

How is it different? This guy is highly educated, brilliant, businessman and racists bigots like yourself consider him white trash.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

so its okay to discriminate against some people?

You mean, like gay people? :roll:
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

Somebody please enlighten me into how his freedom of speech is being taken away. He is free to say whatever he wishes. He is not entitled a show spot on A&E, so I am not seeing the free speech aspect. He doesn't NEED to be a tv star. He can go back to the way he was before he was a tv star and can hate anybody he wants and express that at any time. Nobody owes him anything. A&E has the full right to temporarily suspend him.

How many of you on this thread actually watch that "reality" show? Old weird men acting like redneck philosophers - what a great way for people to waste their life away.

Because he is white? I love how you put a general lack of effor to better oneself in there. The man turned nothing in to a booming business empire, he raised his family, he has not done anything that any of us know of that could be universally considered self destructive. Or does white trash simply mean his style doesnt conform with how you determine? This idea that you have that everyone has to be like you and do as you see appropriate or its okay to use racial slurs is disgusting.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

Nothing could be further from my mind - thank god. But you made it really clear what your catty comments were all about so I figured to shove it right back in your face.
Yea, you used to play some ball games. Wow, so did every kid in the US.

You're comparing him to Obama?

Discrimination is not inherently bad.

You wouldn't know real white trash if it gave you a beat down.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

you are speculating about his contractual obligation, as I initially stated.

you are making stuff up to make your position stronger.

I know how the entertainment industry works.
 
Re: 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson suspended by A&E

Next season is already filmed he will be on every show, right now he is off 2015. I think that will change as the people that actually watch the show will still be watching and the sponsors are standing behind Phil. As long as America keeps giving in the the whiny ass **** stirrers, they will keep whining

In this case I don't think America gave in to anything.

It was one man or a couple of men that were born without balls, like all too many in America these days, and they will pay the price for their decision.

Besides the storage shows, this is the only show I can watch on that channel and I don't think I am alone.

Discrimination is not inherently bad.

I'd prefer him to Obama any day. I think he is far less of a crook, a liar, racist, peice of **** that Obama is.

When is discrimination ok? Do tell.

question, Could Ellen DeGeneres be suspended for speaking out publically in favor of homosexuality? would that be legal?

Being an ignorant bigot is universally considered self destructive. He's too old to be such a moron. If he doesn't care about gays, then he can stop pontificating about them.

Some of us did not stop with the exercise and made it part of our lives.

And then there is golf. In your mind - a manly mans manly activity. :roll::lamo
