Great response to Westboro protestors
 

The Westboro Baptist Church are the "God Hates Fags" bunch of nuts who protest with signs everywhere they can get attention. The finest answer to these loons happened the other day:

that's what they get when the protest in San Francisco!

Gotta love the signboard rickroll.

Reminds me of my alma mater.

They should have gone with "UNIX is not Xenu".

I just had to link this. Pete - ya beat me to it.

"I HAVE A SIGN" is my favorite.

lol

'I was promised donuts'

I love it.

Reminds me of the mass individual protest in London a few years ago. In response to the changes in law making any protests within a certain distance of Parliament Square illegal without prior written permission from the Met police; Mark Thomas used to his radio show to organise a mass of small and individual protests: each of which applied in person to the met at the same time.

There were people protesting all kinds of things. One of which was a woman holding a big sign saying: "Will you please stop putting bits in cheese!"

Also, since in order to get permission one must apply in writing, people were turning up with their application written on everything from toilet roll, to an iced cake.

I'll remember this if we ever get picketed.

Then there's the people who counter-protest KKK rallies, dressing up as clowns and shouting things like "Wife Power!" and "White Flour!" I think there was a video posted around here at some point.

WBC thinks America is immoral, what could possibly be moral about protesting at a funeral. I've heard of anything more disrespectful. Not only do they target our soldiers, but they are also targeting the fallen miners in the Upper Big Branch mine disaster. God does love WV and the fallen soldiers and miners. God loves the sinners, even the homosexuals. God does not like the sins they commit. Love thy neighbor. Love the person not the sin. I don't know what Bible they are reading, but my Bible does not say God is hate. The only unforgiveable sin is blasphemy. Is that the next step for WBC?

Yeah, they're going to get their own level of Hell, nobody wants to be near them, even down there.

Welcome to the Cellar, taysue82.:D

LOL! The Rick Roll Phelps...LOL!!

:sweat:

A great solution

New law prohibits protests at funerals

I've been suggesting this very thing for a few years now.

Good on them!:f207:

yeh really - Took 'em long enough.

Unfortunately, they've left out the codicil whereby we are allowed to beat the living shit out of these intellectual and emotional fucktards until they go to meet their Gawd, who will undoubtedly laugh hysterically, point His finger at them, and send them to whatever version of Hell they hold dear.

I figured that was a given...

Hear, hear...

"Fred's got issues..."

That was very good...

Of course, they're all lawyers. :lol:

Greatest protest ever

:notworthy

Good for them!

Aye.

It doesn't say how. Did they just stand in a crowd between Phelps and the funeral?

Sorry - Here's the link

They said on TV, Phelps had a permit for a particular intersection, and they just filled up those 4 corners with flag wavers. Not just along the curb, they filled the whole damn corner lots. Evidently the permit allows Phelps to demonstrate but doesn't reserve the property exclusively.

Upping the ante. I agree with PZ Myers in all respects.

do that... but fuck him real good on the tire warranty!

That is so awesome on so many levels! I love that, HM - great find!

Here's your sign. :D

Speaking of Westboro...
I would not slash their tires.
I would not condone slashing their tires.
I would not help them get the tires fixed, either.

God Phelps those who Phelp themselves. :D

Good Dwellarish reaction to the slashing.
I concur.

Is it ok if we just cut off their valve stems?

but what if they wanted to cut their throats?

And so extremists have again successfully promoted more hate. Have made being a moderate again impossible. Hate is what Limbaugh types need every one to endorse. So again so many posters in this thread have only empowered Limbaugh and the extremists again.

Hate -- of homemade strawmen -- is certainly what you need to get your eyes open in the morning. You haven't sufficient virtue for the job -- your posts and ideas and ideation make that much clear.

No, vehicle damage is not permitted. However, towing out to Clifton Clowers' salvage up on Wolverton Mountain, with the razor wire and frothing dogs, is ok. ;)
