BTW: These "Baptists" are not to be associated with real Southern Baptist Churches or any other Baptist church. These people do not represent the Baptist beliefs. It highly offends me that they use the word for their organization.

QFT, but sadly that doesn't matter here. People are near foaming at the mouth to bash religion here.

Sorry, but that's a waste of time and effort. The towns where these people have protested in the past have done everything in their power to prevent them from interfering with funerals, including specifying where they can protest, but they have a right to protest as sickening as their protests are.

There's a group of students (12 so far) who are attending the first picket in GA. I can't make it, but they plan to simply surround the WBC, block their view of the funeral and silently protest. They have the support of the police and the local government. I'd be there if I could.

These A holes make me want to reconsider freedom of speech.

you don't really understand this thing called freedom of speech, do you?

Actually, I do, and I realize that there's a price to be paid for it. It's a heavy price, but it's worth paying. "make me want to reconsider" does not mean "we should remove the right to free speech."

if there were no freedom of speech, and someone in the government didn't like what you were saying, you wouldn't be able to say it.

That's right.

freedom of speech goes both way. you are exercising it right now by criticizing somebody else. in certain countries you can't criticize others. in ours, to a large extent, you still can. yes, you can criticize anyone, all the way up to the top (the president).

That's right.

do you like freedom of speech?

Yes, I do.

if you don't like freedom of speech, why did you post this in the first place?

Because I think these people are disgusting pieces of filth, and they should be exposed.

why didn't you just shut up like all the other people in countries without freedom of speech. just keep it to yourself, cause you can't speak out in public.

you, sir, are the definition of a stupid american.

You are an idiot who doesn't understand English or type it well. I support freedom of speech to the utmost. But I still get mad when scum like this abuse it.

yes, that's right. you know what we should do to them? i think we should put them in prison, and sell their organs. what a great idea!

I think we should fart in their general direction.

Death in the family is hard enough, and attending the funeral of your child is even worse... I can't imagine how the families feel having to deal with this. This truly sickens me.
