Dog the Bounty Hunter Fan Club

I’m not even sure what this is about - so I’ll let you take a look at it. It’s something to do with Dog the Bounty Hunter being a fake Christian?!

Here’s an excerpt:

“Today, I would like to talk about those fake Christians, looking for fame and glory by using Christianity as a way of obtaining celebrity status or success. I must admit that I was an occasional Dog, the bounty hunter fan. My sole purpose for watching was to see the difference that Duane & Beth Chapman would make in the lives of those they would capture. I enjoyed those moments of compassion that gave a wonderful ending to each of their shows. Now, I am left to wonder who’s bright idea it was to use God in such a way. A&E or Duane “Dog” Chapman ?”

Seriously I’m trying to wrap my head around the article… it was a bit bizarre.  Maybe it’s fit for an April Fool’s joke?

Tea60 is a fan of Dog the Bounty Hunter and posts on her site that she finds the show to be “great viewing”.  I love fans of Dog the Bounty Hunter - stop by and say hi

Over at Roanoke.com they’ve written an article that says “This Dog’s day has come and gone” - it’s not a pretty article about Dog the Bounty Hunter and I guess I’m wondering why I’m posting it.  I guess I want to be able to take into account that not everyone likes him.  Maybe they’ve got a few points there you may not agree with.  Check out what Ben Beagle has to say… do you agree?

At Lubbock Online they’ve got a really good article about Duane Chapman and how he got started on the wrong side of the law and with a twist of fate turned his life around to start doing better after his arrest in 1976.

An exerpt from the Lubbock online article:

Duane Chapman was just a skinny kid when he lived in Pampa in the 1970s. Now he’s cable television’s “Dog the Bounty Hunter” and rounds up bail-jumping criminals on the A&E Network.

Chapman, who operates a bail bond business in Hawaii, styles himself a man once on the wrong side of the law who became a Christian family man, bail bondsman and bounty hunter who puts the bad guys away. His persona is larger-than-life and expressive, rough around the edges but golden at heart.

I really enjoy reading about Duane Chapman and how he started out. What we see on television is a man who’s made a name for himself. A man who’s turned his life around, and as they say is still a bit rough around the edges. Maybe that’s what makes him so like-able. He’s not perfect - in-fact far from it. He’s seen the bad side of life that I’d never ever want to be a apart of. I personally don’t want to see the inside of a jail cell - and Dog has. He’s been charged and convicted of a very very serious offense. But you know what - he took that and turned it all around. He made that change. To me that takes a person of very strong character to do that sort of thing. Could we all be as courageous and stick to our guns like Dog did?

Duane Chapman is a flawed human being - it’s all out there for us to see. But you know what, he’s taken those flaws and made them apart of who he is… he’s embraced the fact that he is who he is - good bad and ugly.

Maybe that’s why I love him as much as I do. There is always that silver lining.
