以杀人（中国人）开玩笑- 美国的主流媒体在做什么？

有人说那只是童言无忌，不必小题大做。这种宽容的，与人为善的态度并无可厚非。但是我只是在此想讨论一下，我们究竟应该怎么看懂这件事。

那个叫做ABC的电视台应该是美国主流媒体的一个吧，那个主持人应该也是名嘴之一吧。令人震惊的是这样一个以孩子为主角的电视节目居然以让杀人做为笑点，童言无忌，那么所谓的大人，制作人，媒体的老板们呢？

首先，我们诠释一下“Kill”的意思：

cause the death of (a person, animal, or other living thing).

杀死即用不同的手段夺取某种生物的生命。杀人就是夺取人的生命。杀人的规模可大可小。有一杀一，一杀多，多杀一，多杀多。随着人类技术的发展，人类大规模杀人的本事越来越大。


小规模的，比如一对一的可以用刀，用剪子，用各种利器和钝器。就像2012年五月在美国亚特兰大，一对来自加拿大的华裔母女被一个黑人女人乱刃杀死。


大 规模的，不说远，西特勒杀犹太人，日本人杀中国人，卢旺达胡图族杀图西族。。。。大规模杀人的方法可以说层出不穷，日新月异。还记得那些党卫军微笑着注视 一群群犹太妇孺光着身体进入毒气室的情景吗？还记得日本人拿着血淋淋的刺刀挑着中国婴儿开心大笑的照片吗？这些照片可以帮助你理解什么叫做杀死，进而视觉 化杀死所有中国人时候可能的某种画面。



如 果你是哪个被杀死，或者被指应被杀死的对象，你觉得这可笑吗？这种玩笑可以开吗？杀死所有美国人怎样？杀死所有穆斯林怎样？杀死所有基督徒怎样？杀死所有 中国人就可笑了？就童言无忌了？如果你认为不必大惊小怪，那么你需要清醒一下了。中国有句话说防微杜渐，又说千里之堤溃于蚁穴，我们宁愿是反应过激，也不 能无动于衷。某种原则需要坚守。

无论那孩子说的是杀死任何民族或国家的人，我们都应该抗议，抗议这种有关大规模杀人的语言能以如此轻松的方式出现在媒体中，惹得屏幕前后的大人孩子都开心地笑。更何况说的是要杀死中国人呢？而且，不光中国人应该抗议，所有有清醒头脑的人类都应该抗议。

人易于兽，因为人会语言。在此之上，人还应识善恶，辨美丑，进而善用语言这个天赋。

勿以善小而不为，勿以恶小而为之。不能走上接头或到ABC总部前面抗议，点击鼠标，电子签名总能做到吧？

一个一点都不可笑的笑话，做为中国人，发出你抗议的声音吧，无论身在何处。那个愚蠢的主持人应该立刻辞职。


是中国人，请立刻采取行动，做下面全部或至少一件事：



1． 到ABC电视总部前抗议

信件内容如下:

Jimmy Kimmel’s recent Kid’s Table Show about government shutdown has
disturbed my family and Chinese community. The show promoted the idea of
killing the Chinese so that the states do not need to pay back the national
debts.

Kimmel asked several kids in the show how to solve the problems of the
National Debt. Several kids said directly that we should kill all the
Chinese so that we do not need to pay. Kimmel and ABC aired the show to the
public and treated it like a joke. The kids are innocent. However, ABC
management and Kimmel are adults. If you switched the Chinese race in the
show to any other race in the states and made the same statement, the show
would not have been aired. It is very disturbing and unacceptable. In
history, Nazi Germany used the same rhetoric to demonize the Jewish people
before Hitler was in power. Kimmel used the innocent kids to make a
statement that he could not say in public. At least, by airing the show,
Kimmel and ABC management have endorsed the racially inflammatory statement
made by the kids. I cannot let my children see this negative content
towards their race, and I am sure many parents feel the same way.

Conscience is a necessity in any industry, especially in a media company
like ABC. I am extremely disappointed by this show. I have made a White
House Petition to investigate this racial hatred. Tens of thousands of
emails and letters were sent to politicians, the FCC, and to ABC. The
Chinese community will arrange a rally in front of the ABC headquarters if
this distasteful show is not taken down and a sincere apology issued.
Chinese contribute to the community and the country, just like any other
group in this country. It is disgusting to use some innocent kids to make a
racially biased statement. Thank you for your assistance.

3． 发抗议信给媒体:



Dear Media:
As Chinese, I am deeply offended by ABC Jimmy Kimmel’s show (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRztij26Tfc).
The show publicly aired “kill all Chinese” remark. Such a hateful remark is as discriminatory as saying” kill all Jews, Arabs, Gays and others”.
We demand that ABC apologize to the American and Chinese people, and Jimmy Kimmel be fired.    
We believe that it brings shame to the American values in which “ all men are created equal.”
