Death Threats Against Atheist Spokesman After Fox News Appearance

article image

FOX News readers on Facebook started going off after Blair Scott, Communications Director for American Atheists, appeared on America Live with Megyn Kelly. Blair reports that when he returned home from his local FOX station for the interview that his voice mail was full of messages and his inbox had almost 200 hateful messages. “I can always tell when someone from American Atheists is on FOX news, because my Inbox explodes with hate email,” said Blair.

We can talk about the issues about this, but our friend William Hamby has put it well over at the Examiner. In addition, Practical Doubt was able to capture some more as well. Unfortunately, they blacked out the names of the guilty.

Moderators on FOX News’ Facebook page had been trying diligently to delete the violent threats, but not before they were screen-captured by a diligent American Atheists member named Robert Posey.

Here are the screen captures of the death threats and threat of violence posted against atheists. We have left their screen names in place. If you’re devoted enough to make the death threat then you should be devoted enough to have your name attached to your hatred. How many did FOX News delete before they could be captured? There are over 8,000 comments on their post related to Blair’s appearance on FOX News.

I don't care what anyone says. I don't form my opinion on other's views. Read the book. He wanted to talk about gay marriage, why? To cause a problem, not to know. He tattled via his body language. I don't support her. She is whiny. I watched Piers in Celebrity Apprentice. I like him. I know when he's picking. 640-863 | 70-663 | 156-215.71 | HP0-S27 | 650-393 | 640-721 | 642-982 | 646-578

This story is awful. Almost too awful to be true. Where can I go to get independent verification? I want to pass on to my wingnut friends but this seems to have an over-the-top feel to it.

Chris Dunn's response makes atheists out to be the christ-like figures of the story, while himself and all the others remind me of those angry, judgemental Romans. Ironic don't you think?

They obviously are not Real Christians(tm) following the Real Jesus(tm) and possessed by the Real Holy Ghost(tm)!
