Dog-Gone Chapman Thoughts
By Richard O. Rowland, 11/28/2007 11:03:04 AM The recent flap over the racist epithets of Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman in a secretly taped and sold recording bring to mind several thoughts. First, Dog has been an accident looking for a place to happen. Now it has happened. It was almost inevitable, considering his obvious lack of discipline or self-control coupled with intense public attention on everything he did.Second, I am prepared to accept his contrite apologies. Why? He emphasized his principal complaint with the individual he verbally attacked was lack of character. I think that in anger he was casting about for more to say and wandered into politically incorrect territory.

Third, the compulsion in America to be politically correct has been a very worrisome development for some time now. And it keeps getting worse. Remember, the people of Nazi Germany were politically correct. Ditto Stalin in USSR. Then there is Cuba and North Korea today. Exaggeration? Certainly. But where is it heading?

Fourth, in their reactions, the public and the media did not bother to consider the facts, circumstances, or human fragility. Instead, the network and the big advertisers simply dropped him like a hot potato.

Fifth, there are the reprehensible ones who make their living feeding on and perpetuating and fostering victimhood. They make a living keeping victim groups victims. They have the incentive of power, money, and fame (or all three) as they work to cause, manifest, foster, and extend victim problems, real or perceived, into perpetuity. They were on to this situation in spades.

Sixth, the Black Victimhood Industry (BVI) people want you to feel guilty. Don’t. You did not do anything. Dog did. The ones that ought to be guilt-ridden should be the ones who want opportunities like Dog presents to grow like a cancer. Then their power will grow.

Seventh, “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me” is a mature reaction to hateful talk. President Bush handles such daily. And the things said about him have substance, as they mostly relate to something he did, didn’t do etc. A racial slur is empty. A person’s ancestry is a complete and utter accident. None of us had/have control over it. To use a racial slur about another is to reveal, like a neon sign, utter stupidity. In other words, an empty head. Which goes well with an empty word.

Now let’s practice our maturity and get over it.

More Silly Rag Mag News That Is Totally False And Dog Update

There was another silly rumor put out by the Rag mags today, about Dog and Beth splitting up.  This is 100% fertilizer and here is a short bit released to us from Dog’s rep.

——————————————————————————————————————–Thanks so much for your continued concern re the Chapmans and DTBH.  Duane is fine and still working hard, and continuing to discuss plans with his family and trusted friends.  He and Beth are fine – despite rumors of a possible split-up in those silly tabloids.  They get so many facts wrong, it amazes me they are all still in business.  Duane and Beth keep each other strong, and the family is a strong unit.  They will be fine – they pray and have faith in the Lord to see them through all adversity.

Re the show, A&E has still not totally canceled them, so that is still a possibility for the future.  Right now, Duane is focusing on his community work rather than the show.  He made a sincere apology and promise, and wants to live up to them and make things right before moving forward on anything else.

I share your messages with them, and that really keeps them positive and hopeful – so thank you so much!  That is really the best thing you can do…lifting the spirit is the best gift of all!

Sincerely, mona

The Dog The Bounty Hunter On Spike Tv Rumours

There is not one lick of truth to the rumor of Dog going to Spike TV.  There have been no talks and none planned.  The Spike rumor is completely and utterly false.

As far as A&E, though they have not said it, the show is pretty much canceled. There are no reruns,  the show has stopped all production and there are no talks at all in regards to the show returning.  At this point, the show on A&E is dead in the water and unless we can convince A&E to bring it back, it will not be returning. 

A&E Sacks the Bounty Hunter: Who Do They Think They Are?

I am writing to support K. Gilreath’s call for action (Hawaii Reporter, 11/16/2007) against A&E for taking Duane “Dog” Chapman’s show off the air just because of his racist comments. I mean the History Channel shows clips of Hitler all the time, and he was the king of racism, wasn’t he? PBS even had show on the Ku Klux Klan. Tell me the KKK is an equal opportunity employer. Gilreath made another great point too. A&E is cheating us out of a basic right – the right to decide what we get to see on TV. Even though I couldn’t find the specific passage, I am sure that there is something about TV somewhere in the US Constitution. Gilreath gets to the meat of the matter in asking, “Since when is it up to a television network and it’s [sic] sponsors to dictate to people what they are going to watch without asking the viewers or checking the ratings first?”

Right on, Gilreath. I have been writing to the major networks for years complaining about the complete lack of programs on agricultural practices in Micronesia during the 1700-1800’s. But, do you think they listen? No, they don’t even respond to my e-mails anymore! What makes a parent company of a TV network think that, just because they own the network, they can unilaterally decide which shows to broadcast? Even though I am not a shareholder of any network-owning company, doesn’t my mere existence as a US citizen guarantee my right to influence programming decisions? (the Constitution will, I’m sure, back me up on this point).

Anyway, back to “Dog” Chapman. I never actually saw the Bounty Hunter show, but if Gilreath wants to watch a bad guy catch other bad guys and throw them in jail, I say Gilreath should have that right. Powerful corporations, with billions or even trillions in assets, should be ashamed if they think they can dictate the choices of “little people” like Gilreath and me, especially when it comes to life’s really important decisions, like what TV shows we get to watch.

JUDGMENT NOW OR JUDGMENT LATER. A Fair View From A Christian

About the time I was reading I Tim. 5:24: “Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before in judgment, and some men they follow after,” Duane “Dog” Chapman, the renowned T.V bounty hunter on A & E was tearfully repenting on many cable shows about his use of the “n” word in a private conversation with his son, Tucker, who was recording the conversation. Duane’s family wins the prize for a dysfunctional family. Duane and both of his sons have served time in prisons. The oldest, Christopher, went to prison on a robbery charge and the National Enquirer offered him money for dirt about his dad, which he accepted but now regrets. Now Tucker has sold his father’s inappropriate language private conversation about Tucker’s black girlfriend to the National Enquirer. “Dog” says none of his Anglo-Saxon boys have Anglo-Saxon girlfriends and he’s not racist. Both boys, like Judas, sold their father out for money and yet a sign of a Christian is forgiveness, which “Dog” says he has done. He said “Forgive them, for they know not what they do” – what Jesus said as he hung from the cross.

When the true gospel is preached and men come to Christ, they all become brothers. We don’t need all this hype about better race relations. Let’s be honest. We cannot create better relationships by forcing people together. Only the gospel of the grace of God will make a man into a brother. When that happens the color of a man’s skin makes no difference at all.

J. Vernon McGee’s commentary on I Tim. 5:24 says sometimes God will judge a Christian’s sin right here and now but if He doesn’t judge him immediately, it does not mean that He is not going to eventually judge. It seems that prominent personalities who claim Christianity are being judged now. Even TV evangelists have been exposed. “Dog”, a biker, an ex-con and now bounty hunter claims to be a Christian and his black pastor confirms this but had been cautioning him about his careless language. Obviously “Dog” has not attended any required sensitive training programs. However, like so many people who claim to be a Christian but refuse to change their lifestyles and language, he was definitely a Christian who needed a wake up call. His early childhood environment carried over into his persona on his T.V. show as a tough guy, so his habitual bad language is a part of his character. But God has said to him through his pastor and counselor, “If you don’t voluntarily change, I’ll force you to do so.” I believe “Dog” has learned his lesson the hard way as so many Christians do.

Sean Hannity from FOX was the first to have an interview with “Dog” followed by Larry King on CNN. In both instances, he seemed like a truly repentant sinner and whom God can now mightily use and the overwhelming consensus seemed to be that he should not have his livelihood destroyed over this private conversation. Even Dr. Phil agreed “Dog” should not lose his livelihood; however, he seemed disappointed that “Dog” wouldn’t appear on his show to be questioned by the likes of Al Sharpton, who has been a notorious name caller and habitual agitator. Also to appear on Dr. Phil’s show was a black rapper who frequently uses the “n” word and Tucker’s girlfriend’s mother. I didn’t see that show so I don’t know the actual outcome. I personally believe the “n” word had pretty much disappeared from the vocabulary of the majority of Americans until the black rappers came along resurrecting it so what we see as evil, God will use as good and hopefully the black rappers will begin to clean up their foul language and it would be my wish that programs on TV would follow. It’s a step in the right direction. If we aren’t judged now, we’ll be judged later.
