    Yes! It wasn't because of his beliefs that he was suspended, it was his choice of words!

    Not sure why people cannot understand this.

    With the way people react anymore, wouldn't it be the $^@($ if A&E predicted this type of support for Robertson if they suspended him in an effort to INCREASE the popularity of the show.

    This whole story reminds me of the Dr Ben Carson speech when he talked about pc. The story about the dog brain and human brain comparison.

    Look at the pc thread for it.

    Come on :lol:

    Y'all can't understand how a black person might be slightly offended when a white guy says "Hey, they looked happy to me back then. They didn't complain about having no rights or anything to me. They were happy."

    Really?

    Maybe they were. You do realize th that phils saying is happy happy happy.

    One thing is for sure in this pc world. You cant mention blacks or gays.

    It only offends them if they want to be offended.

    No, I could care two ****s if they agree with him. It boils down to the man spoke his mind and was reprimanded for it. Had the situation been reversed, we would have a large discrimination case on our hands. Its a double standard and unjust. It goes against his first amendment right to equal protection under the law for stating his beliefs. He was unlawfully suspended for stating his belief. (IMHO) thats my caveat. Not that the gays are pissed that he doesn't believe in their lifestyle.
