GRRRR...I fucking hate them!!! About a month ago when they came here to picket the funeral of a colonel who died from an IED, my best friend showed them what she thought of them. She of course, got arrested but it was still worth it in my opinion...not that I condone violent behavior but they are fucksticks...bleh...
Here is the link, with pictures of my friend pushing Shirley Phelps into oncomming traffic...haha

what does this group want? Or is just that they want to be an angry mob?
^^ That's pretty much the long and the short of it... That and every homosexual in the world at the bottom of the sea (of course since "fag" seems synonymous for "bad" or "we don't like it" in these people's oddball dictionary, it's really anyone's guess)...
Phelps and his group of tools tried to picket my dads church. My dad is a minister. I was in law enforcement at the time (now a bouncer) and I went to see what these hate mongers were going to do. It was sad. These poor sheep fucking assholes were walking in a circle for 20 minutes, in NOVEMBER, with a nice drizzle, near cincinnati. 20 minutes and done. they obviously didn't have the resolve. Their web page is really pathetic too. They have kids in t shirts, like some fucking hitler youth movement.
umm.. God hates the WORLD? Really now...
:banghead: :banghead:
Madison, your friend rocks.
It's been posted before, and I'm sure someone more industrious than me will post it again here, but a journalist once did a bunch of research on this guy and wrote a book about him. The main source is his few kids that escaped - it doesn't tell you on his website, but his "church" is mostly his progeny.
I saw them a month or so ago in Colorado. I happened to be stuck at a stop light and one of them happened to be just out my window. She yelled something about God hating America, and I yelled back that her God was a war-mongering son-killing sadist, and some cop freaked out on me.
Did you notice the sign that says "Don't Worship The Dead"? As if they don't worship a dead guy nailed to a cross.
have you seen the bbc doco on youtube about these guys?
makes me wanna vomit!
They tried to picket a funeral in Colorado of a Marine killed in Iraq. Their stance evidently is that American military dead are due to a vengeful God punishing the American military for its somehat gay-tolerant policies. A community coalition of left-wing and right-wing and interested people gathered, ready to stretch out sheets to block the family from seeing any such nonsense. A couple of the morons apparently showed up and soon left, discouraged.
I haven't heard of much more than a half dozen showing up when they bleat about the protest they're going to hold. These wackos aren't worth the attention they're getting.
That's soo messed up, have some fucking respect fof the dead. If they were protesting around me, I'd also be going to jail that day!
They were planning to picket the funeral of a soldier here in Montana that was killed in Iraq last week. The Patriot Riders, a motorcycle group that escorts military funerals, formed an honor guard to keep them away from the family.
I watched the entire BBC documentary. Seeing their lives is like stepping into an alternate reality. It was really quite amazing to see them really believing that god is hate and the only way to honor god is to spread the hate.
That family is the only thing keeping Cafepress in business. How many more printed shirts can they own?!
There is a special place in hell for these people.
I'm watching Mermaid's doc right now. WOW this is fucking crazy!
I'm not a Bush supporter. I have a nephew who will be in Irag in a few months. Should the worst happen, and they come to protest... I will end up with aggrivated assault charges. There is no way in hell I would let someone have fun at the funeral of a man who died for his country. I know it sounds like male macho bravado, but just the thought makes me angry.
I realize this has niothing to do with this thread, but, am I the only one that read the title, and when it got cut-off made the assumption it was
The latest bit from Fred Phelps and flock (of seagulls)....??
glad you brought this up.... yes, this is something that riders, mostly v-twin/choppers, but some sportbikes too, have been doing to stop the crazy and evil antics of these assholes... Patriot Riders not only physically block the funeral from the picketers, but if they start chanting/yelling/whatever, use their pipes to drown out the sound. I mean, I know most people probably aren't happy about a dozen bikes at a funeral revving their engines, but it's a hell of a lot better than a person's memorial being ruined by these crazy-ass picketers.
I may consider participating at some point, as long as some all-encompassing membership isn't required... I think it's a good cause, even if i don't have a harley. ;)
When they came to Pittsburgh for Mr. Roger's funeral some people made big angel wings and stood in front of them to block the signs.
Will some nice gay man please just take one for the team and give it to Mr. Phelps nice and hard? It's got to be what he wants, or he wouldn't be so obsessed with seeing "fags" everywhere he looks. All the poor man needs is a nice hard cock. Who'll volunteer, in the spirit of community service?
Self-aggrandizing attention whores of the first order, completely devoid of class or respect.
Fred Phelps is insane. What he is doing in the name of God is a lot worse than way of taking the Lord's name in vain by cursing. I'm not a Baptist, but I am a Christian, and his behavior makes me ashamed to share the name. A Presbyterian minister said this to me about it: "The behavior of this group pisses me off!" Me, too.
Have you seen his web site? It has a picture of Matthew Shepard (the gay man who was beaten to death in Wyoming) with flames around his face, and says how many days he has been burning in Hell.
When Phelps dies, they can put HIS face there.
I must say i feel VERY bad for that 21 year old chick in that documentary Mermaid posted. You can see she has the potential to think for herself, and i think she really had a thing for lewis. I mean she never got offended by his questions (the only one that didn't) and she always has a huge smile on her face talking to him. It's sad, but i think i realized something about the WBC... It's younger members are more victims than the people they hate so much. At least the targets can tune them out, the younger WBC members have been listening to that crap since before they could walk and probably will never get away from it.
I honestly don't think God hates fags. He's supposed to love everyone. How can these people that says God hates fags claim to be christian? Hate goes against Christianity.
I don't believe in God (Though i must admit that sometimes i go back and forth, on God as opposed to the CHRISTIAN version if you know what i mean), but i'd say that everything i have heard states that the Christian God is pretty much a forgiving deal. That was the whole Jesus purpose and all, that the 'good news' they mention is that God is willing to forgive sins. I may be wrong, since i'm an outsider, but that seems to be the gist of things.
Honestly, Phelps is a predator with a serious anger complex as well as a serious superiority complex. first class knowledge of scripture? Phelps? Some of the BEST KNOWN VERSES spoken by the bossman god-kabob himself, Jesus, directly contradict this weirdo's message. Judge not lest yea be judged. Cast the first stone. Let the least of thee into thine house and you let me in. Hate not thy enemy but love him. Mote Vs Plank. Among others (I'm paraphrasing, here).
Phelps seems to get everything from the old testament (When it was ROBOGOD the Hebrews were hassled by). In the old testament there was indeed a prohibition against homosexuality, BUT that was a time when the jews were hell bent on survival. Fuck, Fuck, Fuck, have Babies, Babies, Babies... you know the drill. This was a time when everyone from the Egyptians, Phillistines, all the way to the Canaanites were out to slaughter any isrealite they could get their hands on. So they were in survival mode. Makes sense. Gays don't have kids, so condemn them. At the time the Hebrews needed babies. mostly sons to fight, but there are some indications that occasionally they loved their daughters as well... (as long as their names weren't Lot).
If Phelps wants to take the OT verse in Leviticus as 100% then he needs to take the OT verse against masturbation but PRO prostitution... "It is better to sow thy seed in the belly of a harlot than to cast it upon the wayside" (Translation: breed, breed, breed) Again, paraphrasing.
So God says, don't jack off... buy hookers! GOD says this.
And At least one biblical hero followed the word of god often on this subject...
Judges 16:1 Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.
Best... Bible... Verse... Ever...
Fuck phelps. He's a space cadet. I feel sorry for his grandkids, but that's it. Maybe the lightning bolt can miss them?
Oh, by the way... Homosexuality is described as an "abomination" yet so is eating shellfish... So according to the bible if you eat lobster you might as well be smoking pole... Same description, same harsh words. Wonder if Shirley Phelps eats popcorn shrimp?
