Re: Jerry Falwell dead at 73
Wow, I'm really hoping I never see you in any posts complaining about the lefts "moral equivalency" in the terms of wars, terrorism, interrogation/torture, and other such things.
I don't think all the bashing of the man the moment he's in the grave is right, because it basically is the same thing he'd be doing, but I don't blame people for doing it. I would say the same thing of Phelps, that if he died the thread shouldn't just turn into a "He's a f'ing lunatic, good riddance" fest (And for the record, I think he's worse than Falwell) but I wouldn't begrudge or think bad of anyone that actually decided to do it.
For another example...what if OBL was reported as dead? He tried to kill american's because he was intolerant of our culture...should we not say anything bad, let alone celebrate, on the day it comes out he's dead because we'd be no better than him?
ummmm....do you really not see a difference between this type of intolerance :
Jews are scum.
and this one
Racist people are scum.
????? ?????
Oh, I see.
-Some- forms of intolerance are OK, and some are not.
That's rather convenient, isn't it -- especially if you're the one that gets to decide?
