CRAZYBOMBSWHAT

Mannn you guys hear what happened in Lynchburg yesterday?

So Jerry's funeral was yesterday and there were all matter of celebrities and whatnot coming to it including Oprah (but no Republican presidential candidates) and the Westboro Baptist gang (I'm sure you've heard of them, their website is www.godhatesfags.com) were protesting Jerry for being sympathetic to homosexuals.

I think most people would be like wtf at that, but I'm going to be really unpopular and argue on Jerry's side for a moment. While Jerry has said and implied a lot of ridiculous things, a lot of things that are said about him are taken out of context - which is not hard because he does not make the efforts a public figure should to be more PC. Jerry was actually pretty good friends with this one Christian gay dood (I can't remember what the story is behind their friendship) but they got into an argument because the guy wanted Jerry to publicly say that it was okay to be homosexual, and Jerry would not because he believes that practicing homosexuality is a sin. The dood moved in to a house near Jerry's as a political statement, but they were still friendly and hung out and all that.

Anyways, that is not the point. Some grand Liberty University students were protesting the protesters, and one Liberty student had brought a bunch of bombs he manufactured and was planning on blowing shit up to stop the protesters.

Seriously, wtf?

Anyways, the police caught him and no harm was done, but seriously, maybe Liberty should consider raising their admission SAT score requirements to at least 500 or something.

JERRY IS DEAD!

okay I am in the middle of an exam right now, but noelle just IMed me with this information:

Jerry Falwell just died!!!

wow!

I actually feel kind of sad because he kind of is part of Lynchburg to me.
Also why did he have to die right when I am coming home? All I'm going to hear in local news/services/anything for the next 2 weeks is stuff about jerry.

Anyways this is a big deal. I wonder if there will be any changes to liberty. He had all these plans for it and was still in the middle of all them. He had just built a law school and a ice rink in the past year which have both made a big impact on the school.

I wonder if the school will go more liberal or conservative. It was wayway more conservative 10 years ago and had been becoming more liberal (though still crazyconservative by normal standards) and I know nothing about the characteristics of whatever board or whatever is in control with Jerry gone.

Also why couldn't he have died before he shaved all the trees off Candler's Mountain and put that hideous "LU" there?

This is weird. It's kind of like having a somewhat distant relative die.

okay back to my exam!

LEAVING TOMORROW!!
