Apparently Facebook believes the process of cleaning and cooking a duck for dinner is ‘graphic violence’ and/or ‘gore.’
A video posted by CRTV’s newest member, Phil Robertson, of Duck Dynasty fame, has been censored for being too violent.
Seriously, Facebook, not everybody gets their neatly packaged meats from the grocery store. How do you think it gets there anyway?
Or maybe it’s the discussion of music and Christian values that the social media giant found ‘graphic.’
Either way, Facebook decided it was too much for viewers and plastered it with a warning…
“Graphic violence?” he wrote. “Where do these people think their food comes from?!
The allegedly graphic video can still be seen sans censorship on the CRTV page where Robertson will soon be starring in a segment called “In the Woods with Phil.”

“You can call me Mr. Organic.” Phil Robertson “The Duck Commander” is back and he’s already ticking off lefties!

While he prepares the duck for lunch, Robertson comments on how liberals believe it “takes a coward to go out and kill a bird” with a gun. How cowardly do you have to be to label eating that same bird as ‘gore?’
“No,” Robertson explains, “It takes someone who is hungry, and he wants organic food out in the wild.”
Not responding kindly to the Facebook censorship, Robertson hammered “coastal elites” and asked if people are “sick of being told God’s name and your way of life need warning labels?”

But was it really the duck cleaning and cooking that Facebook took exception to?
“Undoubtedly, many people reported Robertson’s video as violent the moment it hit,” Brandon Morse at RedState writes. “Robertson, being an enthusiastic Christian has made him a target in the past.”
“It’s Robertson’s message they don’t want heard, not the duck cleaning they don’t want seen,” he added.
