Yes, apparently in our God "free" culture of sex, and rock and roll has allowed school shootings to take place! If ONLY we allowed prayers in school none of the school shootings would happen! Yes, it's your fault because dammit, you people are not upstanding good 'Christians'!

Also to be honest, I stopped watching after about 30 seconds of this crap....

Yeah, so far from NSG I've learned two things about shootings.

1) Anyone who has a gun or supports gun ownership, is responsible for Cho shooting people.
2) Anyone who doesn't worship the One True God (in the One True Way) is responsible for shootings.

Sigh..

are you really that surprised with this?

Not really, I just find it amusing that apparently any time something bad happened, it's because we're trying to "get rid of God". *cough* Salem Witch Trials *cough*.

I heard it was Nikki Giovanni's fault.

Nothing I haven't heard before.

Though I do find the notion that privacy is somehow connected to child pornography or that child pornography is excepted by privacy advocates to be particularly disgusting.

In other words, the theocons* are making the same argument they've made after every other tragedy in recent history (see 9/11 and Katrina, for instance).

Okay, maybe not every tragedy in recent history, but it sure feels like it.

* - lifted from a book I read recently to serve as a replacement for "fundies", which can be a little too general a description at times.

It's YOUR fault we have school shootings!

Yeah... I think it was my fault. Sorry everybody.

Nah, it was the Jews, obviously.

Yeah... I think it was my fault. Sorry everybody.

Just don't do it again. God is in a very bad mood this year and you don't want to get on his shitlist. OK?

Everytime I think we've scraped the bottom of human stupidity, someone always has to prove me wrong. *sighs*

Einstein said it best: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity... and I'm not certain about the former."

I actually wound up using that quote for my school's yearbook this year. Oddly enough, I wasn't the only person to do so.

What do you expect? Radicals will say anything that has a remote chance of furthering their cause, but at least that clip is more honorable than Their reaction (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/04/18/national/main2699800.shtml)

Why can't a craze gunman ever shoot up WBC with all of them inside? :(

Gah! Yet more evidence of the fundamental correctness of my favorite Einstein quote! :eek:

Sigh..

You forgot one, Illegal immigration is responsible for school shootings, because they are both illegal.

Video title: "They day they kicked God out of the schools".

God's a bad influence, what with him getting kicked out of school and all. Absoloutely contemptible, I aint worshiping no dunce.

You forgot a group--anyone who supports even reasonable gun control is responsible, because we kept students and teachers alike from packing and potentially stopping the guy (I refuse to use his name and extend the memory of that piece of shit).

Saying that the Godtube people are more honorable that Fred Phelps is like saying cat vomit is preferable to dog vomit. You'd really rather not have either of them on your area rug.

Christian thugs...

I liked how they blamed writing... when I read his it sounded more like he wanted something to do with a fat guy touching his nuts...

Why didn't he just get a cock ring? That's what normal crazy people do.

Every time you go on a shooting spree, God kills a kitten.

Why is it always kittens? Why can't he kill a possum every now and again?

The blame game is America's new national pastime.

He kills possums when you masturbate while on a shooting spree.

The universe is only about 30 billion light-years across, not infinite. That's because the growth of the universe is limited by the speed of light. But as quickly as the illumination of human reason may spread, it always finds that stupidity was there first.

Because if he did no one would believe it. That's why they call it playing opossum.

New? Humans have been shuffling responsibility around for as long as the concept existed.

Stupid yes, New or specific to America no

Not if you mean the black emptieness that is filled by the galaxys. That is infinite.

It's been fun to listen as I am blamed for causing school shootings. Sometimes it's because I'm liberal. Sometimes it's because I have sex with women. Sometimes it's because I am a woman, and I choose to be all uppity and assert that nobody has the right to rape me or enslave me. Sometimes it's because I'm an atheist. Sometimes it's just because I watch TV.

And of course, when I say "it's been fun," what I really mean is, "it's been deeply fucking sickening to listen to these assholes using tragedy to fill their pockets. Assholes."

This may be my favorite (http://www.blueoregon.com/2007/04/rep_dennis_rich.html). It's not exactly blaming the extension of benefits to same sex partners for the Va Tech shootings, but it certainly compares the two as equally tragic events.

Why is it always kittens? Why can't he kill a possum every now and again?

Or a puppy. I mean kittens are so much cuter.

...fuck puppies.


Also, riddle me unsurprised.

...*reassuring hug*?

Hey Wil, how's the meditation going?

wow.. I just read in Time about the shootings. Apperantly the man had some deep issues and needed help. So technicly it's the pyschitrists (yes I know I spelled that wrong) fault for not doing a better job.

Sigh..

You forgot:

3) Video games, whether they were played by the shooter or not, are responsible for shootings.

Geh... if God keeps students from killing each other, I guess that explains why more secularized countries experience these events weekly. Oh, wait...

I exited the link as soon as I saw "godtube".

Oh, I didn't. A lot of that stuff is unintentionally hilarious. The stupid burns sometimes, but it wears off eventually.

There is only one person to blame, and that is the shooter. He made the choice to shoot people, he wasn't coerced, nobody tied his family up and threatened to rape and kill his sister. No one said they'd go a puppy strangling spree if he didn't. The man himself is to blame, I don't care who has what to say about it the only person held accountable for his actions is the person who does them.

Cho Seung-Hui, the Virginia Tech student responsible for the killings who took his own life after the shootings, was sent by God to punish those he killed, and America as a whole, for moral decline, said Phelps-Roper, while adding that she believes Cho is also in hell for violating God’s commandment to not kill.

“He is in hell,” Phelps-Roper said. “But he was also fulfilling the word of God.”

So, Cho's a good guy because he's killed all those nasty sinners, but he's also a complete and utter bastard because he's killed all those nasty sinners? I'm confused.

AOTA, there was documentary about the WBC shown here in the UK recently where the journalist Louis Theroux spent three weeks with some of them. Man, those people are scary. I can see why they called the documentary 'The Most Hated Family in America'. There's an article about it here:

The Westboro Baptists are incapable of making sense. It's because of all the inbreeding.

Ummm... They've got Littleton on the wrong side of the Rockies. The Denver metro area is a little further east. And this video is a big old load of crap. But that's to be expected - it's not as if the left isn't using this tragedy to score their own cheap political points.

Hey, hey. It's usually us pagans getting the religious blame when this sort of shit happens. Witness Falwell after 9/11...

Because we all know that what makes people happy, non-violent beings is having less fun!

As an occultist, I'd say about the same happens to me. When you see this kind of tripe, remember: "Laudari a bonis et vituperari a malis unum atque idem est." - "To be praised by the good is the same as to be censored by the evil", and these fundies are evil.
