[QUOTE=Apache249;36877405]Let's hope people plan a huge counter protest so they don't show up.[/QUOTE]
Some Anonymous members say they're going to do so.
edit: and a bunch of redditors say they'll do so too.
I really wonder if any law enforcement would really stop someone if they came up with a mask and just capped the head of the family. Would any enforcement who knew of the family really stop them?
Why can't people that know about this church coming to them just re-schedule the event on private property?

Best part of the movie.

God Bless America is a great movie.
However, I think these people deserve a worse punishment than death. Did anybody watch Law Abiding Citizen? Where Gerard Butler tortures the robber/rapist and videotapes the whole thing? Yeah, that seems more fitting.
I'm asking myself now what he'd think if something really bad would happen to him.
What an asshole.
I know they have a right to protest, but is there really no public order law that can be used to move them along?
I've always thought that if they were here in the UK (WARNING: Boring legal shit ahead), they would be apprehended under Section 5 of the Public Order Act. They wouldn't be arrested, but you can move them along so they don't piss anyone else off.
[QUOTE=T-Sonar.0;36877359]How ironic would it be if they got shot during the protest?[/QUOTE]
The world would become into a better place.
What hasn't the WBC protested?

We in the US don't have anything of the sort, as any attempt to get them to fuck off would result in "THEY'RE TRAMPLING MY RIGHTS", and a shitstorm would follow.
They can't sue you when they're dead.
[QUOTE=lavacano;36880134]are you seriously defending Westboro Baptist Church[/QUOTE]
Just because they're drooling retard knuckle draggers doesn't mean anyone should have the right to decide whether they live or die, then you're just as bad as they are.
Just ignore them and they'll fuck off and harass some other folk.

This won't solve the problem, why others should be harassed?
[QUOTE=Kefirman;36882008]This won't solve the problem, why others should be harassed?[/QUOTE]
The only reason they do this is to get a rise out of folk, and to make money from lawsuits when folk assault them or harass them.
Don't give em that opportunity and everything will be fine.
As much as I love freedom of speech... shit like this is taken that freedom to the gutter that sometimes I wish these people silenced. These people has no soul and are just utterly evil that need to be cured by the bullet, as i see no chance of them to be rehabilitated.

wait... you saying that death is not great? torturing is better? It just better in my opinion to just send them to the great cycle by first sending them to the grave and reborn to start all over in a different world and hopefully they have a better life then what they have now.

I'm not saying every single one... I'm like saying "eliminate the fanatics, rehabilitate the children, and make them have better parents then those shitty parents they have". Otherwise these whole cult going to continue breeding and raising more children of severe ignorance and hatred that it's going to become a plague in society then what we already have that is plaguing us already.

any sentence that begins with "freedom of speech is good and all..." or "I like freedom of speech as much as the next guy, but..." will always end with the speaker proceeding to wipe his ass with the constitution, as well as basically everything that would suggest that they do actually like freedom of speech.
I want them to come to San Diego so I can fuck with them

Slippery Slope Fallacy, really there's like what, twenty of the dumb fucks? Here's what you do, you pass a law that declares what they're doing as breach of the peace like what we have in the UK or declare them a hate group. Then when they repeatedly break the law (breach of the peace or for hate crimes) you send them to prison.
Problem solved, while the parents are in prison you can take the kids away to fosters homes/sane relatives and friends, and break the chain.
Look as much as everyone loves the typical edgy bullet to the head idea it's a shit idea, that no one will EVER take seriously, or at least one that anyone with a modicum of intelligence will take seriously because it just makes you look like an immature knuckle dragging caveman.

Yeah it's like every sentence that starts with "I'm not a racist, but.." and "I'm not a homophobe, but..."
I hate it when I take a shit and it gets in my mouth.

One of the former WBC members did an AMA on Reddit. They apparently do believe in God.
Can someone explain why the Westboro Baptist Church likes to picket around military funerals? I dont get it,it's very rude and obnoxious.

Yeah it was one of Phelps' sons, think it was his oldest, said growing up with his dad was hell cause he would beat them over nothing and beat his mum and the like, sounds like the worst place in the world to be a kid.

To abuse the already broken american rights to earn them easy monies from angry people that assault them.
Interesting idea I found on Wikipedia.
[quote]On December 12, 2008, the group picketed a production of The Laramie Project at the Boston Center for the Arts. Local activists held a Phelps-A-Thon in response. Supporters pledged online to donate for every minute WBC protested. The event raised over $4,600 for an LGBT-rights project, Driving Equality.[/quote]

Essentially, by protesting, he was raising money for LGBT rights.

I thought the freedom of speech didn't extend to hate speech.
[QUOTE=Cone;36882098]you do actually sound quite like a religious fanatic all of a sudden[/QUOTE]
I'm no religious person, but when I meant great cycle, It's just a personal belief that if you die, you be born again in a different world as an alien, since the universe is massive, there is obviously a high chance that if you die, there is a 0.1% chance you will come back to this same planet as a human.
It's just quite obvious to believe in something like that if you believe in souls, spirits, and the great universe with the concept of rebirth.
