Duck Dynasty Star on What America Really Needs: 'It Ain't Gun Control We Need, It's
The United States doesn't need more gun control, it needs "sin control," according to "Duck Dynasty" star Si Robertson.
In a wide-ranging interview with Men's Journal, Robertson opened up about his past struggles with sin, focusing on the time when he was drafted into the Army and traveled to Vietnam.

"I kept a fifth of whiskey in my pocket everywhere I went. I tried dope one time, okay, like marijuana, but why would you smoke something that makes you feel 100 years old? So, drugs wasn't it for me. In my mind, it was alcohol and whoring around," he said.
Even though he considers himself a man of God, Robertson also reminded readers that his family, which operates a multi-million dollar Duck Commander business in Louisiana, is not perfect.
"Look, I worry that people put us on a pedestal now," he told Men's Journal. "We're human beings. We make mistakes just like everybody else."
