Yet they happily picketed the funeral of Gordon B. Hinckley, in Utah.

Everyone says they want to attack them, but nobody actually does. That's how we know we're better than them. (well, one of a myriad of reasons, anyway).

One of the daughters is gorgeous though. The lord works in mysterious ways.

Yeah but that was SLC the cops funeral was in Ogden. Nothin probably would have happened but tention(sp?) was high.

 

[freenudemacusers]

Sad that some of the only people not putting that crackheaded waste of life on a pedestal because she is dead are these nutjobs.
Really do not know how these guys are still news worthy.

heh

 

[lupinko]

Has anyone tried to picket the Westboro Church before? lol

 

[krypt0nian]

Good job giving them more attention and fueling thier hate, Jasper.

 

[Orayn]

The solution to the WBC is to date them, as many who've left the group have done so to be with people they care about.

Love beats hate like scissors beat paper.

 

[Deleted member 81567]

I know we shouldn't give these idiots attention, but when some shit is this stupid, it has to be posted. It makes me feel better about myself.

 

[Volimar]

I don't understand some people. why would want to disturb the peace of the dead? have these people not got any sort of common sense or respect for people who died?

These aren't attention ladies of the night or attention escorts, they're attention WHORES.

They're never actually in church.

 

[Parallax]

I would love to see Bobby Brown kicking the shit out of these people. That would be the top surreal moment of the decade.

I could only imagine bobby brown trying to sing on our own while attacking them to be the feel good moment of the year

 

[slidewinder]

They're never actually in church.

So they're sort of "Jesus plus nothing" types, huh?

 

[Escape Goat]

Is there anything they won't picket? McRib is back....must go picket! It is God's will.

IIRC Harley-riders turned up at every military funeral to drown the noise of WBC-douches with revving engines back when WBC used to picket every single military funeral.

I'd pay money to a kickstarter account for that to happen (and cover legal fees and realted expenses).

Something tells me Newark won't be too tolerant of their bullshit.

I wish that, but in my heart of hearts I know nothing will happen. They've picketed dead Marines and nothing happened.

That said I'd love for Redman to just pop up and start fucking with them.

god...that would be amazing

It would be pure wondrous magic.

 

[crazy monkey]

Personally I love this bro church. All they are doing is making everyone feel better about themselves.

I miss your threads man.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

Rick Santorum, A Presidental Candidate - isn't that far off these trolls.
Comparing homosexuality to beastality, banning porn/abortions/contraceptives = picketing funerals.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Every time, they convince me all over again that if we didn't have a strong central government/police force to keep guys like this defanged, we'd be in the same boat as the Middle East.

Actually having a 2nd Amendment is why these guys can't do shit.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Yeah, if only people had guns in the Middle East, the Taliban would be powerless.

 

[789shadow]

Isn't religion swell.

Everyone get ready, because here we go.

 

[Ohwiseone]

This isn't shocking.

Back in november, At the University I go too, we lost our women's Basketball coach, assistant, and two big donors for the program.

They were going to picket the funeral Across the street from the Arena we had the memorial Service in.

Thankfully an alum stepped in and offered free radio time on the radio stations he owned and they didn't show up.

These guys will picket a dog dying if it looked at them the wrong way, they have nothing better, and all the Stupid Media attention allows them to have money to travel to these places to protest.

There is no way to stop them, since the Supreme Court knocked down the suit against them a year ago.

 

[Tashi]

I don't get why people just can't go about their own business.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

Because logic and debate work well and protect you from an armed Taliban trooper or some member of a Sectarian death squad in Iraq? Also a little different from a War Zone and Newark..yes there is.

 

[Bentendo]

Whenever these guys are brought up I always pitch in because I live in Topeka and see them on a weekly basis. I've honestly gone from hating them to actually thinking they're kind of funny. I guarantee you a majority of the people in the church do not believe the nonsense they spew. The whole family consists of lawyers who WANT people to act out in violence against them so that they can sue the city for inadequately protecting them. Beyond that they actually get sizable donations from cooks around the nation who truly do believe in their "message".

If you go by their compound in Topeka, you'll see what I mean when I say that they're doing this because it's lucrative.

 

[Orayn]

Are you directing this at them, or everyone else?

 

[kevm3]

American fundamentalist and evangelical Christians as a whole are a "hate group," too. There's no neater way to distinguish them from other Christians in the US and worldwide than along those particular lines of hatefulness that they share, in fact, with the WBC.

Are you being serious with this? Evangelical Christians are a hate group now? Some of you are taking your hatred of religion a little too far.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

It's against the law for crazy extremists like the WBC, the KKK, Timmy McVeigh-types and etc to murder people. If they do, they get prosecuted.

In the middle east, the Taliban/etc fucks with everybody and the law is either neutral or on their side.

This is the point I was making.

In fact, the KKK used to run amok here until the law actually started, you know... enforcing the law, and eventually they were reduced to the joke status they have now. That's why the WBC don't kill people, but just make their dumb signs and slogans. Not because of the 2nd Amendment, what the hell. Why didn't people fight of the KKK with thier Right to Bear Arms in the early 1900's? The 2nd Amendment was around back then.

I don't expect the local sheriff to fight off Taliban Death Squads, the WBC or anyone with "logic and debate". But I do expect him to fight them off.

 

[J-Rod]

The more I hear about these folks the more I doubt they even believe in a God, much less the one they pretend to be ambassadors for.

 

[slidewinder]

Yes, I'm being serious, but I don't hate religion at all.

Except Gun Control prevented blacks from owning firearms. No, I'm not making it up some of the first gun control after the civil war was to restrict ownership among African Americans. I'm not making this up.
