What the H*LL

[center_x]

I know this has been going on for years, but it still pisses me off to no end. I wish these people lived closer so I could give them a piece of my mind.

Or am I over reacting. Is this a good example of freedom of speech, or has it been taking too far?

......and yes i started this thread in another section, but I wanted Service members opinios too.

freedom of speech. sometimes it is used for evil.

someone should go exercise the freedom of beating their asses.

Westboro Baptist? These guys, these guys... wow, and they have the audacity to call themselves Christian, they are clearly not. I'm actually surprised someone hasn't come out of the wood work and caused them some real grief yet.

One of these days they will end up crossing someone with nothing left to lose, and then they will learn a few things about the word "hate"

They make me sick.

Don't know if it's in the article, but Bill O'reilly said he'd pay the court fees out of his pocket.

my 200th post!!!
anyways, if anybody was to see what's in my head when i think about westboro, i'd probably be in jail. but on the plus side, the patriot guard is doing their best to thwart westboro protests.

it's an old vid but it's still good to know that people care:

Lots of stormfront members claim a "christian" basis too. Even the ones here...you know who you are.
The patriot riders follow this church and run interference at funerals. I think the ADL filed an injunction against the group. The same group (the ADL) that many here would speak out against.
this is a confusing country to live in. But I love it.

Only reason I feel that way. A family should be allowed to mourn in peace, regardless of affiliations or ways of death.

Find a few outlaw biker clubs before the next funeral and offer to pay for the party at the clubhouse if they can keep the protesters out of sight. Security is what it is called and all the family has to say is they had no idea what the bikers were going to do. Nothing like a nightmare from h--- on a Harley to keep good protesters moving right along.
