An open letter to Michael Savage

[flewellyn]

Michael Savage, right-wing talk radio host and demagogic spewer of hate, has outdone himself this time. Discussing the murder of San Francisco transgender woman Ruby Rodriguez, his contribution to public discourse was to label the victim a "psychopath" and a "freak", who "should have been in a back ward in a straitjacket for years, howling on major medication". You can read more about it, and listen to the broadcast, here at MediaMatters.

Well, I have composed a response to him, which I decided I would post as an open letter.

Dear Mr. Savage,

I am sorry to inform you that your services as a human being are no longer required. As of this notification, your position as a member of the human race is hereby terminated. Please gather your belongings and leave the species at once. We might suggest you seek out a more suitable species, such as leeches. Do not ask us for a reference.

Sincerely,
Humanity

There's something ironic about people like this calling others psychopaths and freaks.
