Suspended For Cause

Duck Dynasty's Phil RobertsonSo the Art & Entertainment Network (A&E) has indefinitely suspended one of the stars of “Duck Dynasty,” Phil Robertson because in an interview with GQ he said some things which offended queers, Blacks, and their enablers and supporters. What this means for their most popular and profitable series remains to be seen.

But, while seemingly very stupid, suspending Robertson for this reason, any reason, or no reason at all is completely within their rights.

If we’re going suspend, terminate, and otherwise vilify, pillory, and attempt to terrorize into submission people who say things that offend various groups within America’s borders, I just wish we’d do so fairly and apply the same treatment to the various queers, Blacks, and other less than mainstream personalities that spout things that offend the majority of the average American citizenry.

That won’t happen though because political correctness is wholly and solely based upon pandering to- and applying a far lower standard of expectations to non-normative, minority cultural adherents.

    Any chance you can get a pic of a woman taking her sweater off rather than a cute boy with breast implants? 😉

    Now, now, T4T. GLAAD might get all worked up and offended over your disparagement of cute boys with breast implants. 😆

    That being said, I’ll see what I’ve got in the Pond Girl folder waiting to be posted.

    One thing you and I have in common. Were not too worried about offending people. 😉
    I look forward to the pic. 🙂
