All that said I think that the gay community or whatever organization it was made a big deal out of nothing at all and if some of those type of people would wash the sand out of their vagina, this wouldn't even be an issue. People with the "respect my right to do this n that but screw what u have to say" mentality. Ruining society

So any and every employer should be able to fire any employee over their beliefs?
No employee should have any rights whats so ever?
Making China and North Korea sound like a day at Disney.
Has nothing to do with his "beliefs." His boss is A&E. A&E's end customer is the public/advertisers. What do you think would happen if a Walmart employee said the same shit to a customer and the customer got butthurt and made a big stink about it? They'd be fired immediately.
Oh yes, it was all about his beliefs and what he said in the interview.
As far as Walmart employee??? I hear them saying their mind every time Im in the store.
Phil was well known to the hunting community before DD. Him and his family have appeared on hunting shows numerous times and Im sure they will continue to be.

No, A&E doesn't give a shit what he believes. They are reacting to the backlash they're getting from the media and those who are butthurt by his remarks. They only care about saving face and looking as if they're "doing something."

Those employees speaking their minds at Walmart would get a lot of heat and/or fired IF a customer made a complaint. By the same token, if this guy had made his comments and no one lost their shit about it he'd still be on tv. A&E's actions have nothing to do with his belief system. The reaction from the media and others has a lot to do with his beliefs, however.

People just don't understand A&E. It's a business. They don't care who sticks what in who's butt and who cares about it. If McDonalds finds out they are losing money because customers don't like their burgers made from baby seal meat ( and no they don't use that to the best of my knowledge ), then McDonalds stops using baby seal meat. If A&E is losing money because they pissed off the gays, they try and stop pissing off the gays.

This is NOT about Freedom of Speech. This is NOT about the constitution and this is NOT about religion. This is about Money, cash, duckets, green stamps, cheddar. If something loses you money, you make a change to earn that money back. If it means you have to fire someone then sorry for their luck.

Is it fair? Well maybe not. Is it legal? Sure is. If anyone wants to change to a communist country where the government tells A&E who they can hire and fire then vote Hillary in '16.

Yes and no.... It's not freedom of speech it's about the trend of catering to small and vocal minorities and special interests

That dictates what you can and cannot say to them or anything about them.

I don't think we should necessarily ignore small and vocal minorities or special interest groups out of hand though... those things have helped us as gun owners many many times.

Just like cheap brake shops stand behind all their work. They be crazy to stand in front of it.
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.
