Well, well, how do you like these apples America? If the mainstream Television Networks don't like your honest opinion about your religious beliefs relating to homosexual behavior over the TV Networks that they own, then they will go ahead and trash you, and then the TV Networks will take you off their TV Networks television shows.
If a Christian who believes in the Holy Bible living in America today tells their honest opinion about their Christian religious beliefs about Homosexual behavior, to a Magazine, or to a Newspaper reporter. The American TV Networks will not like that American citizens Christian Bible personal beliefs about Homosexual behavior, and will trash that Christian over the American Networks TV airway. And if that Christian is on a reality TV show, then they will further be suspended, or fired.
The American mainstream TV Networks are fast to point out the Holy
Bibles ignorant assertion that is written into the Holy Bible ( like the
earth is 6,000 years old, when in fact the earth is 3 billion years old
) but not so fast to tell the American people about their own TV
Networks intellectual limitations.
So who gave the American TV Networks the power of lord and master over how the American people should think and feel?

UPDATED: The news comes after the reality star compared being gay to bestiality, drawing ire from LGBT groups including GLAAD and the Human Rights Campaign.

So then that is what the new Gay Equal Right movement really means to the American people now on the American peoples Television Networks these days. That the Christian people living in America can't express their Bible beliefs on Network Television in America anymore without reprisal from the self interest of the TV Networks.
That the Gay Right interest has more influential in the
TV Networks business than the American Christians people do in the
television business.
In the TV Networks business the
minority of Gay Right people have more influenced than the majority of
Christians people do in America today, obviously.
Is that what the Television Networks really want, to take reprisal on the American People Christian beliefs and values, who are living in America today?
A poem about fierce fighting between men:
"The fire that is within us can burn a country completely down to
the grown, and lay bare ever single living thing that has ever lived
there. If war is what you want, rest assure that I will show up in front
of you personally.
Because I have a rage now that can not be shed, or shared.
Only your very life will quench my thirst. So it will be a fight to the
death now between us, because I refuse to live on this great green earth
under your thumb.

Dandy Don's LSU Sports Report
In just 12 days, LSU will usher in the new year, and the Anthony Jennings era, when they battle Iowa in the Outback Bowl on New Year’s Day. Next week we’ll start breaking down the Hawkeyes and how they matchup with the Tigers, but today I've got recruiting on my mind and want to continue on that topic by taking a closer look at this year's class and how it might end up.
LSU currently has 16 commitments - nine from Louisiana and seven from out-of-state – and will likely sign 25 this year’s class. Considering the chance of one or two or the current commits either being asked to greyshirt or never making it to campus, LSU will probably accept commitments from 9-11 more players.
With so many slots available and several big-time prospects still in play, I decided to take inventory of all the names I've been hearing lately. Below is my very unofficial list remaining targets that I have been hearing the most about in the past week, along with my estimate of LSU's chances with each.
In-State Targets:
Malachi Dupre (WR, 6'3", 180, John Curtis) - 90%
Garrald Willis (DT/DE, 6'3", 255, Edna Karr) - 85%
Speedy Noil (WR, 5'10", 175, Edna Karr) - 85%
Leonard Fournette (RB, 6'1", 230, St. Augustine) - 75%
Kenny Young (LB, 6'2", 225, John Curtis) - 60%
Hootie Jones (CB, 6'2", 215, Neville) - 40%
Gerald McDowell (DT/DE, 6'2", 255, Covington) - 40%
Out-of-State Targets
Jamal Admas (S, 6'0", 200, Carrolton, TX) - 75%
Tony Brown (CB, 6'0", 188, Beaumont, TX) - 75%
Travonte Valentine (DT, 6'4", 300, Palm Bay, FL, Miami commit) - 50%
Adoree' Jackson (CB, 5'10", 182, Gardena, CA) - 40%
Dalvin Cook (RB, 5'11", 190) - 40%
Derrick Kelly (OT, 6'5", 295, Havana, FL) - 40%
Kantavious Street (DE, 6'3", 265, Greenville, NC, NC State commit) - 30%
Breeland Speaks (DE, 6'3", 270, Jackson, MS, Ole Miss commit) - 30%
Lorenzo Carter (DE, 6'5", 235, Norcross, GA) - 30%
Solomon Thomas (DE, 6'3" 256, Coppell, TX. Stanford & TX lead) - 20%
Malik McDowell (DE, 6'7", 290, Detroit. Michigan leads) - 20%
Dwight Williams (OL, 6'1", 205, Gardena, CA. UCLA leads) -20%
Notes:
• I like LSU’s chances of ending with five of the seven in-state players listed above, and four of the out-of-state players including Jamal Adams and Tony Brown. If they do, this would be an incredibly loaded class.
• I've also heard that LSU remains in contact with Alabama commit Cam Robinson (OL, 6'6", 320) of West Monroe. Unlikely that anything will come of it, but you never know. Something to watch.
On a related note, I want to remind you that I'm working on my list of Louisiana’s top prospects for the class of 2015. If there’s a Division 1 prospect from Louisiana that you would like to suggest for the list, please let me know. I would especially like to hear from LA high school football coaches who have top prospects on their teams. Stats and video links are encouraged and appreciated.

I
don't like hating other people's happiness even though I am always
falling short of my own ambition to treat other people like I want to be
treated. I can't prove that there is a loving God who does in fact love
us. But never the less, I seem to believe in him from time to time.
I have been kept alive
for reasons only God knows, and God spirit is very real to me. I don't
feel worthy of that kind of good luck but never the less God is still
with me, step after step, walking beside me, in his grace.
I have always been lucky like that, and I just keep getting older and older, through no fault of my own..
I was very sick just a few week ago, because the air I
was trying to breath was not moving hardly at all inside my lungs. My
blood pressure was 30/60 and I was fading slowly away. But for the grace
of God I was put into a ambulance by my youngest son, and delivered to
the Hospital where they quickly begin feeding me modern medicine
straight into my veins. After 5 days I was healed. Now because of the
advance progress
of modern medicine, I am breathing like I was younger again.
The spirit of God is all around us if we simply reach out to
him. From his love we were given life, and if we repent our sins against God and man, we can
also return back into God spirit.

WEST MONROE, LA (KSLA) -
The Robertson family released a statement Thursday
night in response to the A&E network's decision to suspend
patriarch Phil Robertson over comments the family patriarch made to GQ
Magazine on homosexuality:
"We want to thank all of you for your prayers and support. The family has spent much time in prayer since learning of A&E's decision. We want you to know that first and foremost we are a family rooted in our faith in God and our belief that the Bible is His word. While some of Phil's unfiltered comments to the reporter were coarse, his beliefs are grounded in the teachings of the Bible. Phil is a Godly man who follows what the Bible says are the greatest commandments: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart" and "Love your neighbor as yourself." Phil would never incite or encourage hate.We are disappointed that Phil has been placed on hiatus for expressing his faith, which is his constitutionally protected right.We have had a successful working relationship with A&E but, as a family, we cannot imagine the show going forward without our patriarch at the helm. We are in discussions with A&E to see what that means for the future of Duck Dynasty. Again, thank you for your continued support of our family."
The suspension comes after a profile piece appeared in GQ in which Robertson told the magazine that he does not support homosexuality, calling it illogical and a sin.
"[A woman has] more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I'm saying? But hey, sin: It's not logical, my man. It's just not logical."
Robertson went on to say "Everything is blurred on what's right and what's wrong. Sin becomes fine."
Reaction to the suspension has been swift and decidedly in favor of the Robertson family patriarch.
Fourteen hours after it was learned that Robertson had been placed on indefinite "hiatus," more than a half-million people liked an impromptu Facebook page demanding the show be boycotted until he returns.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who had her picture taken with Robertson just last month, complained that his free-speech rights were being trampled. Bobby Jindal, governor of the state of Louisiana, where the show is filmed, complained that Miley Cyrus got a pass for twerking on TV while Phil got shown the door.

Dominos are falling
Shea Dixon
For faithful followers of the crazy game of
recruiting, there’s been a focus - born long before this year - on LSU's
2014 class, one rich with in-state talent at the top and heavy on
out-of-state names with interest in the Tigers. For even the most casual
follower of prep football, five-stars like Leonard Fournette and Clifton Garrett are household names.
Will Brown be the next 5-star into LSU's class?
The recruiting world is full of unexpected outcomes, but one expected result was a strong finish from LSU.
Perhaps even the No. 1 class, a mark that Les Miles hasn’t hit during his time in Baton Rouge despite consistent top-10 hauls.
With 41 days until signed scholarship letters come across the fax machine at LSU, just how close are the Tigers to landing the top class in the country?
Close… And the dominos are starting to fall.
Earlier this week, the first domino of the dead period dropped when Garrett - a five-star and the No. 1-ranked outside linebacker in the country - went public with his commitment to LSU, giving the Tigers 16 commitments in a class that is expected to hit the limit of 25 signees.
With Garrett on board, the Tigers moved up to the No. 11 spot in the 247Sports team rankings.
Nine scholarship spots remain unaccounted for, and while nearly each domino remaining will be labeled with a five-star, the foundation built thus far is as impressive as any group of 16 in the country.
LSU offensive coordinator Cam Cameron already has his next quarterback on board in Brandon Harris, the No. 3 dual-threat quarterback prospect in the country. With Cameron wanting to run an offense where the quarterback can utilize both his arms and legs, the Tigers should be in good hands with Harris and Anthony Jennings.
Fournette headlines an impressive Jan. 2 list of announcements
The Tigers also have two of the top-ranked guards in the country committed in Will Clapp and Garrett Brumfield, and both chose to stay home and play for LSU over serious interest from Alabama.
While heavy hitters at wide receiver and running back are still expected into the class over the final 41 days, assistants Frank Wilson and Adam Henry have already locked up in-state running back Darrel Williams and wide receiver Trey Quinn, who is now the nation's all-time leader in receiving yards at the high school level.
Also on the offensive side: the country’s No. 6 tight end Jacory Washington, receiver and return specialist D.J. Chark and 6-foot-2 and 230-pound Lone Star State standout Tony Upchurch, who projects at a number of positions, including a potential pass-catching tight end.
On defense, the headliner beyond Garrett is Edward Paris, ranked by the 247Composite as the No. 4 safety in the class. Four-star and Top 200 commitment Devin Voorhies also projects as a safety, and Florida sleeper John Battle is someone the Tigers feel confident can make an impact at the position, meaning names like Paris could slide down and try their hand at cornerback. Karr standout Donnie Alexander, a 6-foot-1 and 205-pound outside linebacker, is also already in the fold.
Then there’s four-star defensive linemen Davon Godchaux and Deondre Clark, who the Tigers nabbed out of Oklahoma City after interest ramped up between the sides before his junior season.
It’s a group littered with talent, but as the recruiting world goes, the next name to drop is just as important to the overall puzzle.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, but the finishing touches are certainly near.
Which begs every fans favorite question: when will the next domino fall?
It could come sooner than Jan. 2, but that’s when the wave will begin to fall.
At the Under Armour All-American Game in St. Petersburg, Leonard Fournette, Speedy Noil, Gerald Willis and Jamal Adams are all set to announce their college decisions. The same could go for Tony Brown, though the early enrollee and two-sport standout, who is widely considered an LSU lean, could pop sooner.
All five of the aforementioned are five-star prospects. That means LSU could have the potential to land five five-star prospects in the span of a few hours.
A quick plug in of names into the 247Sports Class Calculator reveals that LSU would move from No. 11 (251.33) to No. 2 (286.25) if they secure commitments from Fournette, Willis and Brown. Toss in Noil, and the score moves up to 295.32 points, while the addition of Adams would bump the Tigers to 294.71. Landing both, and clean sweeping the group of five, would give LSU 302.70 points, enough to pass up Alabama (298.85) and sit in the No. 1 spot with a month until signing day.
Then there’s the next wave of names that will come on NSD.
The Tigers appear to be in good shape for five-star wide receiver Malachi Dupre and four-star linebacker Kenny Young, and the press is clearly on for five-stars Adoree’ Jackson, Malik McDowell and Lorenzo Carter, who will give LSU his first official visit when the dead period opens on Jan. 15.
Other defensive linemen are also being pressed, from Miami commitment Travonte Valentine to Ole Miss commitment Breeland Speaks.
Even safety Hootie Jones is testing the waters with LSU, dropping his commitment from Alabama with hopes of looking around for a final time before signing his scholarship papers as an early-enrollee. Depending on which direction Adams goes, could the Tigers end up back in the mix for the Neville standout?
No matter how the next 41 days plays out, there’s still the one expected in a recruiting world filled with twists and turns.
LSU will finish with one of the nation’s top classes.
But as Tigers do, LSU remains lying in the weeds - sitting outside the top 10 in the class rankings - before their attack on the final stretch before National Signing Day in February.

Dandy Don's LSU Sports Report
In just 12 days, LSU will usher in the new year, and the Anthony Jennings era, when they battle Iowa in the Outback Bowl on New Year’s Day. Next week we’ll start breaking down the Hawkeyes and how they matchup with the Tigers, but today I've got recruiting on my mind and want to continue on that topic by taking a closer look at this year's class and how it might end up.
LSU currently has 16 commitments - nine from Louisiana and seven from out-of-state – and will likely sign 25 this year’s class. Considering the chance of one or two or the current commits either being asked to greyshirt or never making it to campus, LSU will probably accept commitments from 9-11 more players.
With so many slots available and several big-time prospects still in play, I decided to take inventory of all the names I've been hearing lately. Below is my very unofficial list remaining targets that I have been hearing the most about in the past week, along with my estimate of LSU's chances with each.
In-State Targets:
Malachi Dupre (WR, 6'3", 180, John Curtis) - 90%
Garrald Willis (DT/DE, 6'3", 255, Edna Karr) - 85%
Speedy Noil (WR, 5'10", 175, Edna Karr) - 85%
Leonard Fournette (RB, 6'1", 230, St. Augustine) - 75%
Kenny Young (LB, 6'2", 225, John Curtis) - 60%
Hootie Jones (CB, 6'2", 215, Neville) - 40%
Gerald McDowell (DT/DE, 6'2", 255, Covington) - 40%
Out-of-State Targets
Jamal Admas (S, 6'0", 200, Carrolton, TX) - 75%
Tony Brown (CB, 6'0", 188, Beaumont, TX) - 75%
Travonte Valentine (DT, 6'4", 300, Palm Bay, FL, Miami commit) - 50%
Adoree' Jackson (CB, 5'10", 182, Gardena, CA) - 40%

Notes:
• I like LSU’s chances of ending with five of the seven in-state players listed above, and four of the out-of-state players including Jamal Adams and Tony Brown. If they do, this would be an incredibly loaded class.
• I've also heard that LSU remains in contact with Alabama commit Cam Robinson (OL, 6'6", 320) of West Monroe. Unlikely that anything will come of it, but you never know. Something to watch.
On a related note, I want to remind you that I'm working on my list of Louisiana’s top prospects for the class of 2015. If there’s a Division 1 prospect from Louisiana that you would like to suggest for the list, please let me know. I would especially like to hear from LA high school football coaches who have top prospects on their teams. Stats and video links are encouraged and appreciated.
