Take Offensive “Duck Dynasty” Off the Air!

Petition by

Linda Camac

Philadelphia, PA

Duck Dynasty is an offensive and egregious show that encourages and glamorizes violence toward wildlife.

On a recent episode, a den of beavers (including new babies) were blown to smitherines as the cast laughed uproariously. They are teaching youthful viewers that non-human animals have no value; they use animals for recreational killing, and ‘entertainment’ while animals die in earnest.

Suspending Phil Robertson for his insulting remarks against the gay community is not enough — the whole show is a embarassing display of redneck ignorance, and twisted values.

Let’s not waste airtime glorifying brute force, and cruelty, making psuedo stars of those who do not respect human diversity or the sanctity of nature and woodland creatures.

Just look who has come forward to defend Phil Robertson….none other than jaw-dropping mean Sarah Palin, AKA ‘Cruella de Palin’!

Expressing My Freedom of Speech

My initial, instinctive reaction to the annoying nuisance known as Duck Dynasty was to just ignore them and they’ll go away. Well, it looks like they might go away even sooner than I’d expected, based on their new statement.

While it speaks volumes on the values and priorities of our society that they are being forced out of show business because of vile and degrading remarks about a group of people—rather than the fact that the entire premise of their program is based on murdering other sentient beings for fun—I’m glad to see them go no matter the reason…

The Robertson* Family Official Statement

We want to thank all of you for your prayers and support. The family has spent much time in prayer since learning of A&E’s decision. We want you to know that first and foremost we are a family rooted in our faith in God and our belief that the Bible is His word. While some of Phil’s unfiltered comments to the reporter were coarse, his beliefs are grounded in the teachings of the Bible. Phil is a Godly man who follows what the Bible says are the greatest commandments: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart” and “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Phil would never incite or encourage hate. We are disappointed that Phil has been placed on hiatus for expressing his faith, which is his constitutionally protected right. We have had a successful working relationship with A&E but, as a family, we cannot imagine the show going forward without our patriarch at the helm. We are in discussions with A&E to see what that means for the future of Duck Dynasty. Again, thank you for your continued support of our family.

I don’t know, but I’d think the gay community would be pretty offended by being called sinners by an ex-addict/alcoholic who became a multi-millionaire through selling gadgets designed solely to lure unsuspecting birds to their deaths. Seems pretty goddamn preachy and self-righteous coming from a bunch of yahoos who live only to destroy God’s creatures.

If any of this seems harsh, I’m just expressing my constitutionally protected freedom of speech.

*Although my last name is Robertson, I’m not one of them. More on that here: https://exposingthebiggame.wordpress.com/2013/09/10/im-not-one-of-those-duck-dynasty-douchebags/

Santa Grants Dying Child’s One Wish, Sends Hunters to Hell

Jolly old Santa Claus used his in with the Man upstairs when he granted a terminally ill boy’s one Christmas wish. When the child told Santa all he wanted for Christmas was peace on earth, the kindly do-gooder intuitively knew where to begin to achieve this objective and asked, “How about if I get rid of all the sport hunters?” This pleased the1477971_417250565045005_342857083_n boy, so Santa (who has a soft spot for the innocents, like children and animals) put a finger to the side of his nose and sent the hunters straight to Hell.

So if the days seem quieter and the nights more peaceful now, be sure to thanks Santa Claus by setting out an extra glass of hemp milk and plenty of vegan cookies.

And any of you budding young “sportsmen” who got a new hunting rifle, Duck Dynasty tee shirt or entry into the Salmon, ID Youth Wolf and Coyote Derby for Christmas can thank your fathers when you catch up with them in Hell.
