Duck Dynasty son ‘doesn’t know’ if being gay is a choice
Willie Robertson, son of “homophobic” Phil, has said he is still trying to work out if being gay is a choice.
The star of the ‘Duck Dynasty’ reality TV show spoke to Larry King about his father’s homophobic statements.

“All I can do on the surface is love people, accept people, be kind and be respectful to people and I think as a family that’s what we do.”
