Yet you think somebody disagreeing with your religious views hate you and are trying to suppress you. Cant have it both ways.

No, it doesn't.

But if you call me murderous, hateful, heartless, senseless, and ruthless; say that I'm evil; and claim that my friends will die simply for being friends with me all because I'm gay, then it does mean you hate me - and that you hate me because I am gay.

You can be all of the above and I wouldn't care. But to proselytize that view like GLAAD and other fringe groups to make other people accept it, you and they have another thing coming.

Phil didn't discriminate by force. A&E did.

It's hilarious that the poster actually thought that was a good argument.

Next up: All Americans have the right to free speech except those born on a Tuesday.

All Americans have the right to peaceably assemble in states that start with "M".

All Americans have the right to worship at the Christian church of their choice. (Oh, wait ... They're actually working on that one. )

Under Armour Keeps Ties To Duck Dynasty Despite Controversy « CBS Baltimore
If A and E decides to let it go or not, no legal rights were violated. But Phil accepted their money and by defination is part of their image. They have the rights to set the rules on how he expresses himself. If he chooses to quit, good. If he chooses not to then he plays the game. That is how it works.

But the words he said were hateful and if he believes them true then he is spreading hatered. There is enough hatred. And if Under Armor wants to keep their $$$$ in a row, they are doing what companies do.

I still think he should be called on his words and not glorified as some backwoods curiosity, which he isn't anyway.

For the love of God, they didn't discriminate. But as he is THEIR EMPLOYEE they have every right to not be associated with his views. If he doesn't like that scenario, he shouldn't have sold out for a big paycheck.

Have you killed someone or agree with the violence they incite?
Have you been hateful?
Are you cold hearted?
We've seen senseless & ruthless
You have to be evil, you vote democrat, right?
Everyone is going to die... eventually.


I bet Phil would help you regardless if you are gay or not. All you have to do is ask.

They didn't fire him either..he's on "hiatus".

You have no idea what is in his contract.
It was doing the GQ interview as him, not A&E.
Point is, as it reflects on AandE, they have the right to dump him if they choose. He should not be surprised by this.
