I'll have to chalk them up at #2 for people to be fired for saying something stupid.

Let's not fool ourselves. The website that you visit to "get involved," is to fire these people ... nothing more, nothing less. Not to educate them, not to educate those who listen to their program, but just to fire them. They're not in a position of education--no normal person turns to them for their education. You don't have to pretend that you are for free speech ... If you're looking to destroy the lives of people just to prevent their slanderous speech from getting out, you are not 'all for free speech.'

I read the transcript and ... if that's the worst of what they've said ... I don't know what the big deal is. Saying "Ching Chong Ching Chong" is not dangerous hate-speech ... it's things that seven-year-olds say in the school yard and it doesn't go any further than that. Their comments about Minority Groups effecting an election is justified, because we have majoritive and plurative elections ... yet those who lobby the loudest represent minorities. I don't understand why they're taking point against the Chinese, considering that most Asians in the United States make an honest living and do not drain the economy like some other minority groups and illegal ethnic groups do. Most Asian groups are not considered minorities, even though they are ethnic minorities in the US, because their median incomes are above a certain level.
