Eugene Delgaudio defends Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson against “Homosexual Lobby”

“If we don’t come to his defense, the Homosexual Lobby will guarantee that our families never see anything wholesome in the media again.”

Eugene Delgaudio, founder of Public Advocate of the United States — a group which campaigns against “Same sex marriage and the furtherance of so-called ‘Gay Rights'”. Delgaudio, in an email sent to supporters and in a statement on the group’s website, called for those who support “real family values and traditional morality” to defend Phil Robertson, one of the stars of A&E’s Duck Dynasty, who made several homophobic statements under the pretense of religious conviction in a recent GQ interview.
