A rally *against* free speech?

[pokerfan]

:shrug:

“When it comes to disparaging my faith on public property, that's where I draw the line,” said rally organizer Steve Wilson.

1. Welcome to Amerika

9. forgot to add a couple more k's

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. Hate rallies against equal protection are nothing new.

[Greyhound]

14. No, they're not.

:kick:

[mondo joe]

3. Fundamentalists prove again and again that they do not believe in equality.

Their arguments about being inclusive of religion in public life only ever applies when it's them only.

[pokerfan]

15. They are quite tolerant...

tolerant of people who believe just like they do.

[Ilsa]

16. They never have, probably never will, on any aspect of issues involving

equality. They still have restrictions on women's service in their fundie denominations, gays vs heteros, and I can't help but wonder what ethnic and racial biases they still hold.

[PVnRT]

4. They hate our freedoms. They must be terrorists.

[Witchy_Dem]

11. Hear hear!

[pokerfan]

13. Well said! n/t

[Sebastian Doyle]

5. I see Ken Hutcherson the rabid homophobe was there

Wonder how he gets along with Steve Wilson who ..err let's just say is probably a "Log Cabin republican".

6. No, a rally telling us Atheists to stay in the closet and burn in Hell is what it is.

To these assholes our very existance is an "attack on their faith". :puke:

[zonmoy]

10. If the existence of atheists is an attack on their belief

then what do you think they think about the existence of maltheists like myself who believe and are more than willing to call their god the evil asshole of a tyrant that he is.

[Odin2005]

17. You'd probably make their head explode.

After they mumbled a few words about demonic possession. :crazy: :rofl:

[zonmoy]

18. Think I had one on yahoo answers say that I was hateful and evil

for saying what I think about god. Found the link to the one I am talking about. funny thing is that the asker gave me a best answer just to say that.

19. Link's screwed up! n/t

[DBoon]

7. but I thought they were against "politically correct" speech codes?

I mean, for these guys free speech is supposed to be about being as rude, agressive, and in-your-face as possible

[Vickers]

8. "on public property"

Maybe the entire public doesn't share your views, super genius.

[BlooInBloo]

12. As with so many other instances in American history, it's "freedom for me, not for thee".

[chollybocker]

20. They need an outlet for their constant hate, so Atheism is the new Gay.
