From Wayne Dupree:
"I don’t know anyone on GLAAD and I don’t want to. The A&E channel has been convinced that a small crowd in the United States is more powerful than a man and his opinion. GLAAD is stifling an American’s voice and we need to embrace Phil Robertson and fight back against them.
I am pissed off and I want you to be pissed off enough to start a movement against this action of trying to shut down our speech.
During a discussion about repentance and God, Robertson is asked what he finds sinful.
He goes on to paraphrase Corinthians: “Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers — they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”“Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there,” he says. “Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men.”

Thanks to Newsninja (Wayne Dupree) for speaking up for our Christian brother, Phil Robertson. It's time to put a stop to the continual attempt to silence anyone that has strong moral and Christian beliefs. Phil Robertson Under Fire for Anti-Gay Comments-Suspended by A&E Indefinitely
Phil Robertson is used to sharing his honest opinion through A&E’s mega-hit reality television show, Duck Dynasty. The show continues to break records by maintaining an impressive amount of viewers. Robertson, the duck-hunter-turned-evangelist, recently spoke about homosexuality in an interview with GQ.
“It seems like, to me, a vagina, as a man, would be more desirable than a man’s anus. That’s just me. I’m just thinking: There’s more there! She’s got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I’m saying? But hey, sin: It’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.” Robertson said before adding, “Everything is blurred on what’s right and what’s wrong. Sin becomes fine. Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men. Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers—they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”
Robertson went on to speak about his concern for the human race, and his family’s underlying value system. “We’re Bible-thumpers who just happened to end up on television,” Robertson said in an effort to downplay his popularity before speaking about the idea of neighborly love. “You put in your article that the Robertson family really believes strongly that if the human race loved each other and they loved God, we would just be better off. We ought to just be repentant, turn to God, and let’s get on with it, and everything will turn around.”
The famous patriarch of the Louisiana family insists that his opinions are not meant to judge others, and shared his explanation. “We never, ever judge someone on who’s going to heaven, hell. That’s the Almighty’s job. We just love ‘em, give ‘em the good news about Jesus – whether they’re homosexuals, drunks, terrorists. We let God sort ‘em out later, you see what I’m saying?”
However, Robertson’s comments have caused an uproar. As a result, GLAAD spokesperson Wilson Cruz released the following statement: “Phil and his family claim to be Christian, but Phil’s lies about an entire community fly in the face of what true Christians believe. He clearly knows nothing about gay people or the majority of Louisianans – and Americans – who support legal recognition for loving and committed gay and lesbian couples.”
Robertson clarified his comments in a statement to PEOPLE, “I myself am a product of the ’60s; I centered my life around sex, drugs, and rock and roll until I hit rock bottom and accepted Jesus as my Savior. My mission today is to go forth and tell people about why I follow Christ and also what the Bible teaches, and part of that teaching is that women and men are meant to be together. However, I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.”
