I’m a fan of Hitchens but this gleeful reaction from much of his supporters at this distastful comment galls me.
No it was NOT “hilarious.” As much as one disagrees with Falwells idiotic remarks and fanaticism, he was not a criminal nor a terrorist, and the least you can do as keep quiet or respecfully express your opinions about him.
Going on national TV a day or two after he died and throw childish and hurtful remarks intentionally is disguisting.
Grow up some you. Geez.
