Duck Dynasty Proves Americans Are Drifting Further Away From The Art Of Critical Thought.
Intolerance: (noun) lack of toleration; unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect contrary opinions or beliefs, persons of different races or backgrounds, etc.
Before The Duck Dynasty Phil Robertson’s pathetic HATE RANT, I knew very little about this show, except for the Duck Dynasty merchandise (made in China) planted all around the weapon’s department of Walmart, which is a sorry “Reality” that Bullshit sells so well in America! Come on, 200,000 signatures on a petition to defend the likes of this, I can’t think of any better descriptive words than, unenlightened ASSHOLE, (Phil Robertson)… It was bad enough that he marginalized a large segment of our population with poison words like:“Everything is blurred on what’s right and what’s wrong. Sin becomes fine," Robertson told GQ's Drew Magary about immorality. “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.”
But, he couldn’t just stop with his vile bashing of those who were born with a predisposition (gene) that would result in a preference upon puberty, for the same sex. No way, old Phil also DON LIKE THEM who are born with a dark skin pigmentation (Human evolution caused by higher amounts of UVR – those living close to the equator nearer to the sun) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_skin_color)
and he says so with this quote: “I never, with my eyes, saw the mistreatment of any black person," Robertson is quoted in GQ. "Not once. Where we lived was all farmers. The blacks worked for the farmers. I hoed cotton with them. I’m with the blacks, because we’re white trash. We’re going across the field.... They’re singing and happy. I never heard one of them, one black person, say, ‘I tell you what: These doggone white people’—not a word!... Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare, you say: Were they happy? They were godly; they were happy; no one was singing the blues.” (Could a crock of shit get any bigger or smellier?)
{{Before the civil rights movement of the 1950s, Jim Crow laws enforced a system of subjugating African-Americans in the South by upholding racial barriers for years after the Emancipation Proclamation. The cultural climate in the Southern states was one of "disenfranchisement, segregation and various forms of oppression, including race-inspired violence," History.com notes.}}
I’m sorry, all this fame and fortune gained by bigoted celebrities should be looked upon as a great sadness for our country, it is a Tell-All about how ignorance is sanctioned as a normal behavior. And, as long as those on top of the heap like Fox News, Right-wing Talk Radio, Religious Right-wing politicians and bigoted clergy, (etc.) promote this kind of thought (or lack thereof) we will remain a dumbed-down society where IGNORANCE IS BLISS! thinkingblue
