Go for it. You think the media whores at Westboro Baptist would be anything but utterly grateful? Your violence would propel them from being a simple footnote to headline news. Any press, even bad press, it what they crave.

Westboro Baptist has every right to assemble and protest; rights secured by generations of Americans who fought for and upheld the values in our Constitution.

There are rights protected by the Constitution, but these rights should coexist with basic human decency. Protesting at a funeral is nothing more than a childish 'recruitment' ploy by a group of fanatical zealots hiding behind the 1st Amendment. It serves to accomplish nothing but increase their own notoriety, which I assume they must see as fighting the 'good fight' - equating their own persecution as 'Christ-like'.

If they ever made it to the funeral of someone I knew personally, I'd invoke a little of my own Biblical justice - eye for an eye? I'm no Gandhi, and this particular breed of self-proclaimed Christians is more dangerous than any Ang Lee film ever could be.

Actually, they don't even recruit.

That's my whole point. They gorge on anything they perceive to be as persecution, even if their own actions- however volatile or offensive- were the stimulus. It takes a real sick person to camp out with that twisted little coven.

Makes sense. That level of derangement requires far more than a simple recruiting process. It takes years of hatemongering and brainwashing to create a suitable candidate.

This is the same group that protested at military funerals. They determined that a very small portion of the bible is the only part they go off of. The leaders are lawyers, I think the game is to piss people off so much they do something that they can be sued for. The people I really felt bad when I watched a documentary on them was their children. They have their freedom of speech, however you'd think child services might do something.

The liberals, atheists, and left wing nuts will try to use these numbskulls as Christians. They're not Christians, they're just raging lunatics who are misguided numbfuck quacks. In the "ol' days" they'd be shut up in the paddy wagon and sent to a mental asylum, but now with all this liberish, "ohnoes, freedom of speech."

The same people that condemn these idiots (rightfully so) but then go on to paint all Christians like this are the same ones that would protest they're getting shipped off. Maybe they like the idea of being able to wash everyone in the same color of their bigoted limited minds.

What are the good old days, and when did they occur? As I recall, people were worse than this in the past. Just ask any elderly African American living in the South.

I'm an atheist and I don't try to paint these people as Christians. You, however, are a Christian(I presume) who is painting me as a bigot. Perhaps your mind is bigoted and limited?

It's not even that. The only "candidates" are family members. WBC is just Fred Phelps Sr. and his extended family. Maybe 100 in all. You gotta be born or married into this thing.
It's not even a cult. The whole bit is basically a scam. The church status is just for legal and tax protection. They make all their money from filing lawsuits at the people who get pissed off (rightfully so) at their outrageous "protests." They seem to thrive off media attention.

I guess it take a certain level of cynicism to see through the BS and see the WBC for what it really is. They're not the nutcase cult of old, that's for sure. There's no cause or agenda behind what they do, just hate.

Yea and it's headed to the Supremes. They will probably win on free speech grounds.

I'd love someone to toss a couple grenades into their meeting hall the next tie they are all there. The world would sure be a better place...

They march at Marines' funerals as well apparently. The fvcking daughter of the leader of this stupid group was on the radio (96.5 NJ) this morning. She sounded like a lunatic and the radio hosts just kept calling her family and friends a "cult" and her a "loon/crazy".

I CANNOT imagine one of these protesters going to a marine's funeral...what do his brothers in arms have to say/do? I'd go apeshit. Fuck their rights, that all goes out the window when they start to disgrace a innocent human being who has given their life for this country and for them. Fuck them.

I'll bet any amount of money they probably don't go into one of the more poor neighborhoods where Marines are recruited out of? I'd like to see them perform a protest in Marcy projects or Baltimore for a fallen Marine. We'll see how well their right to assemble holds up.

why couldnt the DC sniper take out these guys instead of killing some harmless woman in a home depot parking lot?

Can't someone already book the grounds for their own protest so that the Westboro cult can't be there?

Actually that's not accurate with regards to military funerals: from Wiki

Phelps and his followers frequently picket various events, especially military funerals, gay pride gatherings, and high-profile political gatherings, arguing it is their sacred duty to warn others of God's anger. When criticized, Phelps' followers say they are protected in doing so by the First Amendment. In May 2006 President Bush signed the Respect for America's Fallen Heroes Act in response to Phelps' protests at military funerals. In April 2007, Kansas governor Kathleen Sebelius signed into law a bill banning the protest of funerals.

That whole wiki about Phelps is absolutely hilarious. Recommended reading.

Your absolutely right. I agree with their right to do it and would fight, if necessary, to defend that right.

That right is exactly why I would go to jail and be prosecuted for assault if they protested one of my family members funeral. Just like Pac.

You have the right to free speech but if you exercise that right by walking into a biker bar and yelling that you think people who wear leather look gay; I am going to laugh when you get beat down.

The Constitution gives every man and woman in the United States the right to free speach. Within the First Amendment there is nothing that prohibits the extent of free speech, as long is it does not impose direct harm. Unfortunately, this allows all sorts of reprehensible words and actions on the grounding of "self-expression." You see it with the Phelps family and other religious and political whackos, and you also see it with performers on stage.

Protesting funerals, homosexuals, Jews, and other groups, as well as supporting AIDS, HIV, and IED's as Godly judgment are protected by the Constitution. Just as certain "artists" get away with wiping ass on the American flag, tearing apart Bibles, simulating oral sex and the consumption of urine on stage, and other disgusting habits.

The founding fathers knew that they could not enforce morality on American citizens because doing so would violate the separation of church and state that has been so critical to our freedoms.

George Washington
"The United States is in no sense founded upon the Christian doctrine."

They relied on the people of this nation to hold their ethics near to them so that the nation could prosper under strong leaders and citizens. Once these ethics are let go, we are left with extremists of either persuasion who will go to any limits to impose themselves and their message.

The hypocrisy of your argument seems to escape you. It's along the lines of, "Everyone who generalizes is stupid."

thats not quite right. Free speech is free speech about our government so we dont have to worry about getting thrown in the stocks for protesting what our government does.
Citizen against citizen is not protected under free speech, if you accuse somebody of something you better be right or you can get sued.

and as the guy said a few post up there is teh America's Fallen Heroes Act.
