The Westboro Batshit church, home to our beloved Fred Phelps, is planning to protest at the funerals of the dead little amish chicks in Lancaster county, PA. Aparently God hates fags, so he directs pedophiles to kill little amish chicks.

Cowards. I wish they'd die. But I'm sure the Amish wouldn't even pay attention to them. Bet you that would piss them off. That or organize a private funeral on private land. Tresspassing is illegal protester scum.
They want to get someone to try and hurt them and then sue. The church must be low on money.

From the article:
The Westboro group says the Amish school girls were "killed by a madman in punishment for Gov. Ed Rendell's blasphemous sins against Westboro Baptist Church.
"Gov. Ed Rendell -- speaking and acting in his official capacity to bind the State of Pennsylvania -- slandered and mocked and ridiculed and condemned Westboro Baptist Church on national Fox TV," the group says on its website.
"Rendell also revealed a conspiracy to employ the State's police powers to destroy WBC in order to silence WBC's Gospel message. Co-conspirators identified by Rendell included state officials, citizens, lawyers, legislators and media," the website says.
Westboro Baptist Church said it is "continuing to pray for even worse punishment upon Pennsylvania."
I wonder if that could possibly be twisted into being a terroristic threat. Fred P. deserves a trip to Gitmo more than a fair number of the detainees....

I still think it will be amazing to see the Amish ignoring that hatemonger and focusing instead on the memory of those unfortunate girls. Hopefully, they will be a model of how to deal with that kind of hatred in a truly Christian manner.

I agree, but I doubt our intrepid representatives have the brains to craft a law that'll stand up to a constitutional test. It's a delicate issue, because once you ban one form of protest, no matter how reprehensible (and Fred and the WBC are about as reprehensible as I've seen in 55 years), you open the door to banning others. No one said living in a supposedly free country would be easy and sometimes you have to put up with assholes.

What people who are targeted by Phelps and his minions should do is bring in their own muscle and physically prevent them from getting anywhere near the funerals. They have no business at the funerals, or any other funeral for that matter. Appeals to the authorities seem to be useless in this matter, so people will just have to do what needs to be done on their own.
Whenever I think of Phelps, I'm reminded of an old Twilight Zone episode, "Four O'Clock". There was a vicious busybody who kept notes on everyone he knew and kept sending in anonymous tips about how they drank too much or were in debt or were of bad character somehow. Finally, he came up with a plan whereby he would cause all the evil people in the world to be two feet tall. When the chosen hour came (four o'clock), HE was the only one who had shrunk.
If only we could see a two-foot-tall Phelps :D

Not necessariy hereditary. Phelps, in his younger days, had some interesting parenting techniques. One of them involved beating his kids unconscious with a mattock-handle. Beat the hell out of someone enough, terrorize him or her enough and they'll believe whatever you tell them.

No, I think God would prefer him alive...I think a life of hatred is a far greater punishment than death could ever be. Phelps has created his own hell on Earth.

I consider myself a defender of civil rights, but even I know this is unacceptable. What are they protesting? What do the Amish have to do with the so-called "fag agenda" that the Westboros are always railing against? At least at military funerals they say they're protesting people who defend a corrupt and decadent nation (not that that really justifies it). But a bunch of murdered Amish children? That is intolerable.
It's got to be some form of harrassment or emotional distress. God knows that can be brought up in court all the time... why not here?

The trouble is, they're quite careful about not being on private property.

I think it'll be interesting to see the WBC's fire and brimstone "God punishes you!" in contrast to the Amish, who have actually forgiven the man that killed those girls and have reached out to the man's family with support and kindness.

Okay, the Funerals of Soldiers-somewhat made sense if you considering their batshit line of thinking.
But the freaking Amish?! The most Christian of all freaking Christians?! Jesus Christ is going to die a little because of this. God damn these stupid freaking bastards. Goddamn. This makes no sense.
It doesn't even make sense in their line of thinking-The Amish are hardlined Christians... I don't think they support Homosexuality... I'm pretty sure that they haven't done anything worthy of protest, ever.
And now these batshit bastards are going to protest at the murders of these murdered girls?
What needs to be done is that all news organizations should come to an agreement to not show these people, ever. Not one glimpse. They shall never be in the news again. Ever. We'll get rid of these assholes one way or another.
Either that or someone is going to get REALLY pissed at them one of these days, and kill every last one of these assholes horribly and painfully, and then they can proceed to burn in the lowest circle of hell for all eternity, while God shakes his head in disgust for not knowing how humans could get so low.
Satan himself is probably disgusted by how horrible these people are.

I have a hard time seeing them not being there. Everybody has a daughter/niece/sister/grandchild, and nobody would want this shit to happen at her funeral if she were murdered.
It's bad enough protesting at funerals, but innocent little girls is WAY to far.
*Note, I'm not saying that Soldiers are not "innocent" in the legal sense, as I am not saying they are guilty of anything. I am saying that they chose a career that involves a high chance of injury and death, whereas the girls had no choice whatsoever in what happened.

And technically speaking, could they be gotten for trespassing if they even step foot on private property? All I need to do is find out where the funeral is, buy up some land, wait for them to come, and have cops waiting, and have them arrested. Then I would donate the land to the Amish.

Unfortunately Fred Phelps, the most closeted man in all the world, believes that god is a spiteful vindictive hateful bastard. Basicially he operates on the old testament only, while breaking whatever parts of it suit him personally.

I have no problem with free speech. Phelps can spew venom on his websites, and into any TV camera that he can find. But there's a difference between free speech and making an ass of himself. Hate protests don't belong at private funerals!
I agree. In fact, I don't think blocking funeral protests would be a constitutional issue.
Think about it: when forms of free speech are blocked, it's usually because of the content. Take flag-burning, for instance. Making a law against it would be unconstitutional, because you're telling people that they can't burn the American flag alone, i.e., you can burn anything else in protest, but not this. That is thoughtcrime because it's banning a particular POV.
However, there's nothing wrong with placing a ban on burning things in general. Getting arrested for burning a flag is fine if you would also be arrested for burning a French flag or a poster or a sheet of paper. That way, you are banning not the content of the speech, but the way it is performed.
The same thing should apply to funeral protests. Just place a universal ban on protesting at funerals. It doesn't matter whether you're protesting President Bush or Osama bin Laden. It's illegal, plain and simple.
This isn't hypocritical, by the way. I fully support free speech. I have no problem with the Phelp-ites spewing their filth in the public sphere. But the fact that they abuse their free-speech rights to harrass innocent people who have done nothing -- even in their twisted worldview -- is unacceptable.

Seems the protest at the Amish funerals has been cancelled because a representative of the WBC was on the Mike Gallagher Show from 10:00 to 11:00 AM today (10/5). US/Eastern Time, I guess.

You think that's the reason, or is there actually a line they won't cross?
As wonderfully ironic as joining a pack of people who arent involved with Phelps at all in order to spew venom at Phelps for the good of all...I wont. At least not yet.
First I would like to say that I have complete faith in the Anish people (who actually ARE involved with this ongoing circus of horrors) to do better than Phelps or any of us seem to do when faced with a person like Phelps. Most of us see Phelps and become angry. From anger we want Phelps to be stopped and we want bad things to happen to the bastard. Anger and not religion is what made Phelps into Phelps. Anger is what makes us like Phelps. Anger is a luxury that the Amish will not allow themselves. Instead they will patiently endure and ignore Phelps and then try to forgive him. They will give Phelps an actual example of how to act rather than a speech about it.

Not worth it.
I think only Genghis Khan could get that kind of reaction from them...considering they forgave the killer... I doubt Genghis Khan would rile them up.
Wow. You don't get much lower than tapeworms.
...um...
Congressmen? ...No. Too low.
How about E.Coli bacteria?... too low? you actually hold someone lower than Phelps?! :eek:
E. Coli are very, very useful. We even make insulin in them. Nope, you need something lower.
We could compare him to.............smallpox?... Genitle Herpies... irritating but you really can't get rid of em...

I don't know. I got that off WBC's lovely "God Hates Fags" website. I feel like washing the mouse and my hands now. They didn't say anything more than that. Gallagher is a conservative talk radio guy. His website mentions the cancellation of the protest and has a link to the WBC's press release, but doesn't say more than that Phelps' daughter will be on the show for an hour today. I suspect Gallagher was appalled at the prospect and bargained with the WBC to keep them away. Kudos to him for that, if that's the case.

Just an FYI on the protest cancellation thing. Amish funerals are always held in the homes of the deceased, usually by invitation. So all the funerals today were on private property. To curtail the curious and attention-getters certain roads were closed by the police so the services could be conducted without undue publicity or interference. One of the families of one of the slain girls invited the widow and family of the killer to attend their little girl's service if they thought it would help their families grieving. Don't over-romantize the Amish, in alot of ways they are pretty medieval; but they are God-awful good Christians. And in these times that says alot!

And that we are fortunate enough that he's been called home.

Will the madness ever end? :headbang:
What the fuck is wrong witht these people? Doesn't the Bible say, "Judge not, lest ye be judged."
Oh wait, I forgot. These are religious fanatics. They don't care what their favorite holy text says. They just want an excuse to hate those they can't understand.

Sure they do, they just only care about the hateful things it says (or can be interpreted to say).
Sometimes I wonder at Phelps and crew claiming to be Christians at all. The only part of Christ's message they seem to have grasped onto is the idea of salvation (basically just for them, of course). The rest of it they ignore in a hateful interpretation of the Old Testament that even the ancient Hebrews probably would have shunned. Christ's message of love - the one that the Gospels focus on - is nowhere to be found in their doctrine.

One day Fred Phelps will die and go to Hell, and Satan will resign immediately and let Phelps run the place. Satan's a weakling compared to him.
The day he dies is the day his head explodes after screaming at reporters for finding out about his gay lover. :)

Fucking Fred Phelps and the fucking Phelps family can all go burn in their Hell. I swear, if they even DARE show up at Emily Keyes' funeral...
What needs to be done is that all news organizations should come to an agreement to not show these people, ever. Not one glimpse. They shall never be in the news again. Ever. We'll get rid of these assholes one way or another.
Oh, look! Guess who's giving these assholes the airtime they crave: Bill O'Reilly!

I'm just waiting for him to picket a funeral around here...my fiancee works at a cemetery that has military funerals from time to time, and although the Westboro Fuck Head Brigade hasn't shown up yet, the people who come to try to block them from shouting down the funerals have.
I would argue that fighting the military will be Phelps' downfall, just as it was Joseph McCarthy's, but McCarthy had legitimacy. No one listens to Phelps.

I just watched the segment and tore them a new one. So what's the problem?
I agree that these people should not be given the attention they so crave for it only emboldens them, but people want to and should know exactly who these people are and why it is they do what they do. The media should not get into a feeding frenzy over it, but when you have so many news outlets out there it is hard to avoid.
