OPINION: Jack Kevorkian Speaks Before U.S. Flag with Swastika
By Wesley J. Smith , Senior Fellow in Bioethics - February 08, 2009
This says a lot that is wrong at our universities--where social
outlaws are celebrated and given huge speaking fees--and with the
murderer Jack Kevorkian. At his recent speech at Nova Southeastern
University in Florida, he had an American flag behind him with the
Swastika in the field of stars. From the story:
On Thursday night, Jack Kevorkian pulled another stunt in front of an
audience of thousands at Nova Southeastern University: "Let's all say
the Pledge of Allegiance," he said, then flipped a U.S. flag to reveal
a replica on the other side with a swastika where the blue and stars
would have been.
Since Kevorkian's obsession was to conduct human experimentation on
people he was euthanizing, perhaps he was speaking about himself with
the flag stunt.
That thousands of people turned out to see him shows the decadent
power of celebrity that is rotting decency and virtue in our culture.
