    they've been doing this for at least 7 years now...they are the ones with the nice pretty multi colored signs that say "god hates fags" and "thank god for ieds"....

    really classy people indeed...

    I don't like violence.. But if I could take a baseball bat to a group of my own citizens, I think it'd be these assholes.

    yeah those people are some demented sick fucks no doubt. They were in my hometown last week as a matter of fact they were like right around the corner from my house at a high school. Would have liked to have gone and snapped a few pics but I had to work.

    Here's a good story

    Would you care if it was the funeral of a murdered gay man? I doubt it.

    See that the father of one of the soldiers killed has to pay some of their legal fees now?

    Yeah, and even though I normally detest BIll O'Reilly, he's done something about it:

    Fox News host Bill O'Reilly will pick up the legal tab of the father of a fallen U.S. Marine after a judge ruled that he must pay the court costs of the members of the controversial Westboro Baptist Church, who he sued for protesting his son's funeral.
    This particular church is infamous for protesting the funerals of U.S. servicemen with signs saying God killed the soldiers because of homosexuality in America, among other things.
    O'Reilly called the legal fees an "outrage":
    "I will pay Mr. Snyder's obligation. I am not going to let this injustice stand."

    The man has earned my respect for this selfless act.

    yeah, the fucker seems to be impervious to bullets... believe me, I tried. ;) I encountered him when I was in high school. The Treasures of the Czars exhibit was in Topeka. Fred was there with "Czars are Fags" signs. My high school government teacher actually went to school with him in Topeka. :roll:



    The Topeka Capitol Journal did a huge expose on him years back and it makes a fascinating read.

    awful people. such a twisted way of looking at things.

    proof that going to church doesn't necessarily make you a christian, any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

    Fuck these assholes. There's freedom of speech in this country but this isn't it. This is pure hate. I can't walk around with a sign that says God hate n****** or God hate jews (not that I would) without being arrested. These people should be arrested and put in jail for hate crimes.


    And thumbs up Bill O. Class act my friend. :thumbup:

    I agree. Hopefully the Supreme Court rules against them.

    These fuckers are going to protest at Temple University tomorrow because they are putting on a production of RENT.

    more in a week than all the people at MSNBC made last year? gosh. proof that fair and balanced reporting can be very lucrative.

    can you point me in the direction of where you got that information from? i just want to verify that it's accurate before i send him a thank you letter. i don't believe the link you provided proves what you just stated.

    i live in laramie (um, yeah, this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Shepard#Murder) and come from casper, where the funeral happened. these lunatics used to show up a lot in both places, on anniversaries and so forth, until our communities decided to just completely ignore them - no one came to their "protests", no local papers covered anything they did, the didn't make it onto radio or television. we pretended like they weren't here.

    soon they stopped coming altogether.

    they want to be attacked; they want the attention.

    why are you gay ?...no big deal if you are it's just kinda odd that you should say that.

    cannot believe these guys still are doing this. what a bonkers group of people that have no idea how to get an idea across.

    At least some people are doing something about it. I know that they cannot be everywhere but man I wish these guys on the motorcycles could be. Pretty cool story, I know the link is old but I believe they are still doing it

    I believe in freedom of speech, however protesting somebody's funeral is just low. How shitty do you need to feel about yourself to have to go yell at somebody's funeral, seriously?

    And good job Bill.

    I think the WBC did/does protest homosexual's funerals as well, but I could be wrong. These fuckers deserve anything that comes their way.

    they've protested several funerals.

    i was talking with my roommate about this the other day when they were showing pictures of them....what kind of person funds this? how do you pitch that? "excuse me, i'm collecting money to drive across the country to protest a funeral by holding signs saying god hates them and they are burning in hell, how much do you think you'd like to contribute?"

    phelps came to my college to protest the play the laramine project all they do is drive around preaching hate
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    No it's a serious question. You think it's okay to cancel a prom because of some lesbians, because "something has to be done to stop disease", yet you are offended by these anti-gay protesters. Why? Because they're protesting a solider? I think it's funny what a hypocrite you are.
