The thing with Fred Phelps, at least in the gay community, is that now people basically donate money in a fashion similar to stuff like the March of Dimes. People donate X amount of money to some charity for every minute he and his acolytes picket and proselytize. Charities for things like AIDS have received millions through this and I'm not sure if Fred knows about it.

In short, I feel they should throw this back in his face and people should do a similar thing for some relevant charity. *shrug*

"In spite of early (since removed) reports in The Washington Post and the bloviations of both Dr. Phil and anti-gaming attorney Jack Thompson, it looks like the gunman behind the shootings at Virginia Tech was not a videogame player.

A warrant listing items siezed from Cho Seung Hui's residence reveals little that suggests an interest in gaming. No consoles. No copies of Grand Theft Auto or Katamari Damacy. Just the things that you might expect would be found in a college student's dorm room.

Although a computer and harddrive are listed in the items taken, and could contain games, Cho's roommate has stated that he never saw his roommate playing videogames during his rare appearances in the dorm suite.

So there you have it. The pundits will have to find another facile "explanation" for these horrid crimes."

American Family Radio last week began circulating a clip in which a child writes a letter to God asking why he didn't "save the schoolchildren" at 18 schools where shooting have taken place.

The response:

"Dear concerned student:
I am not allowed in schools.

Sincerely,
God"


WTF??!!
