A L.A columnist writes his opinion of the comedic WBC
This article is an opinion article from James Kirchick from a magazine called “Advocate,” published in Los Angeles California. His idea is that people are making way to big a deal over the Phelps family and the WBC. With England barring them from the country it takes away from their freedom of speech and that is against social liberties. He basically thinks people should let Phelps speak, but just don’t listen to him because he is a crazed man. The audience is people who believe that people who have opinions that are extremely radical should not speak, and to the English government who deny Phelps and his family freedom of speech. The evidence he gives is that of quotes from the English government and from the Phelps family themselves. It is composed as an opinion article but it still informs of what happened between England and the WBC.

I completely agree with what you are saying Chris. Britain is a country that should be above denying free speech to anyone no matter how radical their message might be. It is a country that we identify with as a nation so it is almost sad to see such a thing happening.
