Westboro Baptist Church = Free Speech Sucks

Posted in China, World News by Elliott Back on May 20th, 2008. [Del.icio.us]

The infamous hate group known as the Westboro Baptist Church recently issued a press release titled “Thank God for the Great Killer Earthquake,” in which they thank God for killing Chinese:

Thank God for the Great Killer Earthquake that He sent to kill thousands of stiffhearted Chinese rebels against God. Our prayer is for many more earthquakes to kill many more thousands of impudent and ungrateful Chinese.

This is why American free speech sucks–it has to allow even vile hate speech such as the above. When 20,000 people die in a random act of nature, Americans everywhere should be sending aid, flying to China to help rebuild with their own hands, or raising support in the USA. Instead, we have handfuls of crackpots producing insane press releases in the name of American conservative Christianity. China, with its distaste for organized religion and hateful speech, would never allow an organization like the Westboro Baptist Church to prosper. To any Chinese that might read this, true Americans and Christians extend love and compassion to you.

For more constructive ways to assist China in its time of need, Shanghaiist has made a nice list of charities you can contribute to, such as the Red Cross.

    If you put < in the comments, it misinterprets them as HTML code…
