Funeral protestants?

[UberSteroids]

Man, so I just read it in news paper that there was a protest on the funeral of the NIU victims.

Some group of The Topeka Kan - based church.

"Church memebers protest funeral across the country because its members believe the deaths are God's punishment for America's acceptance of homosexuals"

Here are some photos:

What in the F#@%$ is this?! Is this a JOKE!?

Are these people sick or out of their minds?!

Please, don't let me come across one of these protests, because you will hear about it in the news... and I will get arested too...

[RA]

They say that these people are a "church" group but all the members of this group have the same last name and dont actually have a "church"....

Its just a bunch of nutcases using religion the wrong way.

[Pooks]

They sound like Democrats... except Democrats substitute the word "world" for "god"

...
but seriously all my foreign myspace friends luv me!

actually the meaning of the word "church" is a group of people that believe the same thing..

a body of believers..

I understand.

But, how the F$%# do they get away with that?! This is my question...

How is this even allowed? If this happened on the funeral I am on... I am walking out straight to the first of these insane, lost minded people and take them down.. one after one man.

I am sorry but this blows my mind...

I wish I was a cop in moments like this...

[UberSteroids]

Crazy F%$^ goes out of his mind and kills innocent students then takes his own life... then at the funeral we got bunch of lost minded saying that they died because of America's acceptance for homosexuals....

What a nice society we live in!!
It blows my mind!

WHAT THE F$%^ !!!!!

that's what they wanted, see, now they can show harm, and get the case elevated through the court system..

plus they will get many many $$$$ via contributions from all over the country

[Tock]

I understand.

But, how the F$%# do they get away with that?! This is my question...

How is this even allowed?

Because of the First Amendment to the US Constitution:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Back in the 1980's, when these rat bas-tards focused their protests on funerals and memorials of gay people, we'd complain that they were giving grieving folks more misery. We were told, "They have a Constitutional right to protest."

Freedom of speech is an awesome thing . . . not too many people on this planet have it. IMHO, it's more important to allow the occasional idiot to speak their minds and make a fool of themselves, than to let government idiots establish the precedent of making "exceptions" to Rights guaranteed by the Constitution.

If this happened on the funeral I am on... I am walking out straight to the first of these insane, lost minded people and take them down.. one after one man.

I understand.

But it's more important, IMHO, to honor the right of free speech the US Constitution gives them, than it is to vent your anger on them.

There are limits to free speech to, like yelling fire in a crowded theater, inciting a riot, disorderly conduct, disturping the peace, etc etc any or all of which these jerks are violating.

That's why a lot of protests of this nature are regulated.

As long as these protestors comply with the local requirements (getting a permit, whatever), which they most likely have done (else the cops would have taken them away), and don't yell FIRE! in a crowded theater, they're exercising their rights.

The US Government cannot stop public demonstrations because someone doesn't like what the demonstrators are saying, thanks to the US Constitution. Communists governments do this sort of thing all the time. When is the last time pro-democracy demonstrators were allowed to demonstrate in Cuba or China? Here in the southern US, black people would still have to sit in the back of buses if protestors were not allowed to have their say. Messages from anti-abortion or pro-choice demonstrators might be censored from a government that didn't like what they had to say.

IMHO, it's best to let everyone have their say, regardless of how stupid it is, than to pick and choose who gets to speak.

[StoneGRMI]

^^ they've racked up huge bills from protesting these funerals. I don't know if they have paid anything yet though. If you search for their videos on youtube it will almost make you sick enough to puke how disgusting these people are. I also hate how their church says it's a Baptist church, what a crock.

[_CrossroadS_]

Something similar happened in the town I was born in. A girl was killled by a drunk driver, and shortly after being buried, people starting messing with her gravesite. Throwing road kill on her grave, hanging rotting meat on her stone, grafiti, just screwed up stuff. We watched her dad, who was a reasonable, rational man, with a heart big enough to forgive the man who killed his daughter, turn into a basketcase. I'm sorry you just don't mess with a family dealing with death...it is hard enough as it is.

[UberSteroids]

These people are insane, should be locked up in mental hospital or terminated.

As rough as it sounds, i don't see any way out... because they don't even want to listen or care to explain.

Totally brain washed.

I am really suprized that they are still alive, especially the main guy that runs this crap.

[TheArtist]

these pieces of shit tried to do the same thing to a bunch of miners that died here in wv. But, being the region of the state where, "people don't take kindly to strangers" they wouldn't have had much success... When their leader or whatever made the statement that they were coming to protest and would like police protection, the police department told them that if they came, the locals would make sure they didn't leave. It was one of those things where the police would "look the other way"... needless to say, they didn't protest.

Haahahahah! Nice!

I don't know why would anyone give them protection.

By doing this, they feel safe, as they can do whatever the F$%# they want.

Let one military chopper fly over with one of the Asahi M-134A Vulcan Miniguns and spray some bullets with rate of 10,000 per minute. Cut those suckers down.

They will think much more before planning next protest.

Man, this country need a MAJOR OVERHAUL. A man with BALLZ to run this country. It is getting out of control.

[Football_Bill]

These people make me SICK. That is why I ride with the Patriot Guard Riders. We are invited to soldiers funerals by the families to be the shield between them and the protesters. Lately the protesters won't even show up, that’s what happens when you get 200 to 300 bikers together as "security". If you own a bike, please look into it in your area.

That's pretty good!

Yeah, all these bikers should kick the living sh!t out of these protesters.

I would like to join but, you know... I don't have a bike like that.

Would Hayabusa count?

I am only one of two or three out of the 300+ bikes that rides a racer. My bike is a Katana. At first i felt a little out of place, but we are all there for the same cause and everyone gets respected for that. BUT, I do plan on buying a criuser soon. The State Leader drives a sweet Victory, but that is outof my budget.

As for kicking the shat out of them, we would love to, but that is what they want. Then they could sue, and trust me those pu$$ies would.

Well, if we kill all, there won't be any left to sue us, right?

That’s why I love sniping. Trust me, they will pull that crap at the wrong funeral and someone is going to redefine god to those people.

Nice post! and I own a bike

[LawMan018]

But what do they have to do with Protestants

[TheChosen1]

They are probably some members of GodHateFags.com.

Those assholes used to go on Howard Stern alot to protest they're hate.

[TheArtist]

But what do they have to do with Protestants

lol, i caught it too... but i just figured i'd let it ride

[UberSteroids]

As I said before, bottom line is that this country needs major OVERHAUL and someone with BALLZ to run this place.

Let this happen in Russia or some other European countries...

Dude, if they did a nonsense protest like this, they would get arrested if they are lucky, because most likely they would get beaten the F%$# down or shot on the spot for BS like this...

This is a parody...

Sending all the soldiers to fight some wars everywhere else, but no one home is willing to fix the issues here...

No discipline... no respect. They have so much FREEDOM that they do whatever they F^&% they want!

[Schmidty]

ignorant 100% ignorant. I cant beleive that people are still upset about gay/lesbians, who fvckn cares. They are people to, what is the big fvckn deal??? My mother is a christian biggot, n i cant stand it for 1 second. Her n her friends have never gone n protested this kind of thing but they hole heartedly beleive that what these people do is right. N this is what god wants ect. its shocking to see how primative some of us really are.

[TheArtist]

stop acting like you're in the land of the "free"... we're about as free as any other communist country

[Voice of Reason]

Please, don't let me come across one of these protests, because you will hear about it in the news... and I will get arested too...

Here ya go, pick a meetin and get to beatin.

What?! They have a schedule up for this!?!

Buaaaahhahaha! That's just... .. .

I have no words for it.. totally blew my mind...

There is one in Dekalb IL... I live only 40 minutes away.

I can get a nice BB gun. I also have a wrist rocket with .75, 1 and 1.25 inch bearings. Like 20lbs of it.

Also a paint ball gun!!!

They are from the Westboro Baptist Church..... bunch of freakin nutjobs! The weird thing is all of the church members are family or extended family. The leader Fred Phelps and his wife Shirley are very "intelligent", well spoken people. Of course when I say intelligent I am referring to the fact that they are very well read and knowledgeable of the law. I think Shirley owns a law firm. (someone correct me if I am wrong on her) Mike Gallagher, a national talk radio host, will usually give them 30 minutes on his show as part of an agreement so they wont protest outside military funerals, ....etc. The sad thing is that these people exploit the very things that make this country great.

[tadpoleboyy]

they are saying america sucks and hatin on dead soldiers, yet there are exploiting the very right (free speech) that is brought about by America and the soldiers. I find that somewhat funny...

[Oki-Des]

These people have been around for years. The woman that usually speaks on their behalf is one of the most bizarre lunatics I have ever seen. But it is a lesson we all can learn. If you can not do anything in this world, yet wish to be famous, simply do something controversial. This will allow you to become famous for this alone. This group has nothing to offer other than frustration and that is all they are worth. For all I care they can stick their signs up their butts because that would probably be a better use of their signs.

[tadpoleboyy]

These people always have a camera on hand recording during their "protests." If you hit them, they got you. Youd have to do something sneaky, like put a buncha piss in a super soaker n douse them. Even tho that probably counts as assault, you could do it n make a quick break and hope you get away. Although with all the cops that are needed to make sure they dont get their limbs torn off, its a slim chance they wont see you.

I think a good alternative would be a buncha dudes in speedos, greased/oiled up, with a boombox, all dancing vigorously/sexually around them as they protest, to some weird techno. If they really hate homosexuals that much, that would blow their minds, as it is free speech, and really funny to watch im sure. I mean a lot of dudes, enough to circle them, and dancing Party Boy style (from jackass)
