[h=1]LOCAL CHRISTIAN STARTS PETITION TO RELEASE AMOS YEE[/h]
Post date:
30 Mar 2015 - 5:27pm

Amos Yee is now Famous after he released a video filled with expletives rejoicing over Lee Kuan Yew's death.
Following his video going viral, over 20 people filed police reports against him and he was subsequently arrested. (Amos Yee Arrested by Police over Controversial Video)
There have been very mixed reactions about the video and news of his arrest with some saying that he deserves it for insulting Lee Kuan Yew and Christians while others pointed out that Amos is just a 17 year old teen who doesn't necessarily know better.
For some, they agree with the points that he made but do not agree with the way he put these points across.
For one Christian, Mr Wally Tham, he doesn't believe that Amos Yee should be arrested even though he made insults against Christians and Christianity. Setting up a petition page on Change.Org, Mr Tham wrote:
There are some people who agree with him too as evident from the comments left on ths petition page by some of the signatories:

Meanwhile others commenters on Facebook have pointed out that the reactions to Amos Yee's video have been equally extreme or worse such as the reaction from one grassroots leader, Cookie Tan, who suggested that Amos' penis be cut off and fed to him.
Will you sign the petition?

We are not offended by Amos Yee's statements. His opinions about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ neither threaten our faith not diminish our love for Him. Please release Amos Yee. We forgive him and desire he have a full life of contribution to his community ahead of him.
He called on the government of Singapore to release Amos Yee.
