‘Major backlash’: #StandWithPhil hashtag supports ‘Duck Dynasty’ star Phil Robertson, slams A&E

Posted at 7:56 am on December 19, 2013 by soopermexican

The conservative Twitterverse exploded Wednesday over A&E’s suspension of Phil Robertson for the oh-so-heinous act of answering GQ when the magazine solicited his opinion on sin. Many are not “happy, happy, happy” with A&E and are supporting the “Duck Dynasty patriarch with the #StandWithPhil hashtag.

God-fearing men don't care what A&E thinks of them. #StandWithPhil #happyhappyhappy

#StandWithPhil – whether you agree with him or not – because someday it will be YOUR beliefs that are punished/silenced.

Looks like it’s A&E execs who won’t be “happy, happy, happy” after this decision.
