63. Obviously based on the fact that there is a tape of the phone conversation make me thing his son's girlfriend has a motive.

65. I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN!! The chapmans were ALWAYS RACIST!!! How can you gather hands in prayer one minute and the next go grab some bond jumper and so easily call them every nasty name in the foul book that exists and tuen around yet again and say a prayer with them? HYPOCRITES? OFCOURSE!! this show needs to be pulled off the air, A&E owes us all an apology, these rude disgusting white trash pigs need to be held accountable for their actions and tucker and his girlfriend need TO SUE HIS ASS!!!!
Monique Shinnery SUE DUANE CHAPMAN FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!! MAKE HIM HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE! To ask Rev. Al Sharpton for help? LOL ARE YOU KIDDING ME? RACIST PIGS!!!

66. I have watched Dog for a long time and can't believe that his show depends on a scandel magazine that reported on a conversation with his son which is nobody elses business.
The network is taking a very poor step for a person being able to talk to his family in PRIVATE. Shame......

68. I don't know what Dog did, but he and his whole crew are trashy as hell and don't belong on a network called Arts and Entertainment. He belongs on FX, or maybe they could just start a White Trash Channel and put him on there . It's a sad day in America when our heroes are the likes of Duane Chapman.

69. A&E really don't have a choice because their sponsors would drop them and they can't afford that. But it is very responsible of A&E to take the initiative and not wait for the major fallout when this really hits tomorrow.

71. This is the biggest crop of crap ever , all you people saying you dont support him stop and realize what this man has done if their was more people like him maybe our violent crime rate wouldn't be growing. I am not racist by any means and I kinda agree with the comment left by KO I hear African Americans call each other the SO CALLED "N" word all the time but when anyone else says it is such a crime against humanity. My family doesn't watch A&E anymore and will not until they un- suspended his show and I think their will be more people in the same boat as I am. I hope their ratings drop and their company crashes and Ted Turner or someone buys it.

72. I am so mad that A&E would even give weight to this F...en National E. all they do is suck the life out of people and hurt people...this was a prive phone call and I hope they said they where taping it cause if they did not it is a Fedral crime!!! through the book at the person that taped it

73. I think this poser has been dressing like this so long that it's just routine to him. But does he really think he looks cool. Take a step back and look at yourself. I've seen clowns at the circus that would be embarrassed to be seen standing next to him. And I like how he puts all his family on the show. Yeah like baby Lisa could really take someone into custody. What a joke..........but then it is what it is.....a show to entertain us. I put it in the same catagory as Howdy Doody. Oh yeah, and Beth running after fugitives in her leather shorts and high heels and 2 inch long nails. Those shorts aren't Daisy Dukes, they're BOSS HOGGS....hahahahaha. I'd almost rather watch dancing with the stars.

74. Why is it always White people attacking Black people like this in America? I never hear of Blacks acting this way. Then the White people always find a way to try to turn it around and somehow blame Black people.

I'm beginning to feel like Black people aren't the problem.

75. Loose lips continue to sink many ships.

What is wrong? Why can't we all get along and help each other along this journey of life. If we had better relations with each other, some of our health issues created by stress would disappear. Love all of you.
