If your answer is "yes", I think 99% of people would disagree with you. If your answer is "no", then you should understand why GLAAD has gotten such a backlash. They overplayed their hand by saying that these comments amount to "hate".
By the way, the word "persecution" would include people being attacked and killed.

except you aren't doing an actual comparison to what phil said. he didn't say homosexuality is a sin, he said far, far more than that. how it morphs into bestiality, etc.
i didn't know glaad had gotten backlash over it, tho. not that it matters, i doubt all homosexuals think glaad speaks for all them, any more than i think the national org for women speaks for me.
as i said above, i mentioned hate as part of a broader discussion, not about what phil said. if someone else categorized it as hate speech, you'll have to get clarity from them.
i think his comments were inappropriate, but that's just my opinion. i didn't watch duck dynasty before, i won't now, some la. yahoos opinions matter as much to me as my opinions matter to him-not a bit.
