Duck Dynasty: 'Hey, This Is America' Says Cracker Barrel Employee (Video)
By Susan Duclos
Immediately after the controversial statement by Phil Robertson of the top rated A&E show Duck Dynasty about preferring a woman's vagina to that of a man's anus and how his religious belief is that homosexuality is a sin, A&E suspended him and the popular restaurant and merchandise chain Cracker Barrel took the Duck Dynasty items off their shelves.
They heard from their customers, loud and clear, what they thought about that decision and within hours replaced the Duck Dynasty merchandise and issued a statement:
"You told us we made a mistake. And, you weren’t shy about it. You wrote, you called and you took to social media to express your thoughts and feelings. You flat out told us we were wrong. Today, we are putting all our Duck Dynasty products back in our stores. And, we apologize for offending you."
Yesterday, December 22, 2013, I personally went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast and as I was paying my bill I asked the cashier, "Have you replaced the Duck Dynasty merchandise?
She said, looking at me warily, obviously not sure what side I came down on "Yes."
I said "Smart move," and smiled.
The women then grinned at me and said, "Wow, what a fuss, but hey, this is America."
That ladies and gentlemen, says it all. It is America and Robertson has the right to his religious beliefs, whether one agrees with them or not, he also has the constitutional right to express his beliefs, it is call free speech.
