The "19 Kids & Counting" family the Duggars have been in a storm of controversy ever since they decided to delete photos of same-sex couples kissing on their Facebook page. Then matriarch Michelle Duggar asked Fayetteville, Arkansas, residents in a robocall to vote to repeal a law that grants equal housing to transgender people. This led to a petition to cancel the TLC series, but now there's a counter-petition to keep it on the air. Michelle posted a link on her Facebook page to the ipetitions.com appeal that says, "The Duggar Family is under attack from anti-marriage advocates for standing for traditional marriage.

The pro-Duggars petition has garnered more than 49,000 signatures, but it doesn't come close to the anti-Duggars petition, which has more than 156,000 supporters.
