Fred Phelps and friends to be at funeral of my student...
those bastards will be in PA tomorrow for Shelby Fieniello's funeral. They have never been anyplace like Fayette Co., PA. The PA State Police refer to this area as FayetteNam. Need I say more? Watch the news.

5. "honestly, officer, I didn't see a THING!! (seriously, I don't want
them in any way being made into martyrs. on the other hand, should a tornado take them out, or a tragic highway accident (where nobody else was involved) or, better yet, if ohl phrooty phred phelps died of AIDS, my heart would not be broken.

4. Yes...
There will be one hundred Marines there and two motorcycle groups. Fayette Co., PA, is a crazy place, and I hope they do their justice to Phelps.

16. I'm so glad to hear that.
From what I've read, the motorcycle groups seem to be effective in blocking off the view of Felps psychopaths. One of these days, someone in that gang of lowlife's will do just the wrong thing at just the right time, and then bam......

And I won't be the least bit sorry.

11. This is one of the very short list of things
Edited on Fri Oct-20-06 11:23 PM by frogcycle
which I suspect would turn me into a homicidal maniac.

There is just nothing I can think of that appalls me more. The idea of doing what they do when parents, friends, wives, husbands, children are grieving for their loved one is just beyond comprehension. In the entire process of dealing with the loss, that moment of finality at the graveside is SO intense, and to have this going on - I cannot express myself.

20. What a great video.
The sad thing is that the police have to defend this human trash.

25. ACTUALLY, it's sad that the police THINK they have to protect this trash.
In fact, it is a well-established principle of U.S.
Law that the Police are under _NO_ requirement
to provide specific personal protection to ANYONE.
Anywhere.
EVER.

13. Go to their website...
godhatesfags.com, and they list all of the funerals, etc., they will be attending. This is the sickest bunch of people ever (other than bush and co.).

15. Unfortunately, all the attacks do is make them feel like heroes.
It boosts their martyr complex. But if a few (or a LOT) of them got hurt in one of their "rallies" I wouldn't shed a tear. They're lower than whale shit in my book.

17. Jay Sekulow, religious right lawyer, blasts ACLU for supporting
protests at vets' funerals. I have no link for this; I've heard him say this on several of his broadcasts. He makes it appear as if these are anti-war protests; he NEVER says that Phelps is a rabid gay basher and a fundamentalist 'christian' preacher.

Sekulow is supported by Pat Robertson, et al. He is the 'go to' guy for defending prayer in school, etc.

He cleverly depicts the ACLU defense of free speech as a defense of anti-Americanism. Remember the ACLU defended a neo-Nazi parade years ago in Skokie IL, where many Jews lived.) A means of further demonizing the ACLU to the religious right.

22. There is a good chance they won't show unless they are in the MidAtlantic
area right now. They have to drive from Topeka and they claim to be coming to a lot of funerals that they never show at, or only one or two of the clan make it too with their spawn.

I don't know what they are thinking going to a Marine's funeral who obviously has a lot of friends in a small population area to boot....

They threatened to do this last summer at the funeral of one of my mom's oldest friends' grandson, but didn't show. There were several hundred Marines there as his unit had just come back to the US in time for the funeral. His wife was 6 months pregnant then, and recently had the baby, it was a boy.

I had a physician's appt. out of town or I would have gone to the funeral, I even volunteered to read from the BCP, but it was a Baptist funeral and they didn't need a lector. I am glad I didn't go. I grew up with the kid's parents and aunts and uncles....

23. they often don't follow through on their threats to picket places.
hope this will be one of those times, though their methods really don't help their cause.

24. Eeeeew! I just found this video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nBtYsg-7aE&NR

Apparently they were going to picket the funerals for the little Amish girls. They got bought off by some radio program that gave them an hour to spew their filth.

These guys are the absolute scum of the Earth.
