I don’t like either one, but at the same time I won’t give them the satisfaction at being outraged by their idiotic stunts, and I won’t sacrifice our First Amendment for it either, they aren’t worth the trouble.
I have a hard time believing that all of the pro-Terry Jones/Fred Phelps talk is because people are suddenly standing up for the First Amendment.
In the last so many years we have had “Piss Christ,” Snead O’Connor tearing up a picture of the Pope on TV, Yoko Ono ripping a Bible in half on stage and Seinfeld’s Larry David pissing on the Bible.
I would like to see how many people around here chose to vehemently defend the First Amendment rights of those people in the same way they do the two “preachers.”
