Duck Dynasty guy's vile, yet unsurprising views on gays and civil rights

"Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson told GQ, unsurprisingly, that he doesn't get the whole gay thing.

"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," Robertson told GQ's Drew Magary in the magazine's Janurary issue.

He then went on to describe, in detail, why he, a self-proclaimed vagina-loving man, doesn't understand the attaction.

So there's that. Oh, and also, he explained why blacks were happy during the Jim Crow days in Louisiana.

I wasn't surprised at all.

Sorry to "stereotype". Stereotyping sometimes works.

No wonder I have always loathed that show. Fuck duck dynasty and their bigotry! Gah!!!!!

This actually will probably have little effect on their core audience...

This could be some contrived stunt at the expense of the lgbt community. Check out what these guys used to look like, this shows is fake, fake, fake....

Reality TV is a joke. Banality tv is more like it.

People living vicariously through others on TV...

Or that he would keep his mouth shut about it?

I won't say this was planned, only inevitable.
