  • Westboro Baptist Church gets owned

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7Of_2ykZpQ"]YouTube- Epic Win! Student uses Westboro Baptist Church visit as Fundraiser![/ame]

    This bright young man used Westboro's own negativity against them. He took their presence in his town to protest whatever they were batshit wound up about at the time and used it to raise money toward charities they didn't like so much.

    Its important to point out these are the creeps that also picketed several other dead soldiers funerals just because they found out they were also gay or a Jew. They also picketed Heath Ledger's funeral, you might recall.

    But these people who proclaim to be Christian - they're not, they a cult full of inbreds who need Bible tracts read to them because reading is too complex for them already - are resilient. They picketed a guy's funeral and somehow the liberal judge presiding over the case has stiffed the plaintiff with the bill on their court appeal for protesting his son's own funeral. To the tune of $16,500.

    He's refusing to and I don't blame him. Not only should these people be sued for using the right to protest to incite hate instead of being peaceful, this judge needs to be unseated, too.

    Go on and read it here:

    Lance Cpl. Matthew A. Snyder

    Its pretty outrageous.

    There's a lot of rhetoric going on right now about the protests in Washington last week but its been really desperate. Its sad a group like the Tea Party can get smeared when there's no audio/video evidence of slurs thrown around (we live in the age of video recorders on cell phones, after all), but these WBC fuckers get overlooked.

    WBC is what real bigotry and hatred look like and you need look no where else for the example. These people have no other agenda and no message but hate. The Phelps family, the heads of this church, think God is on their side. When they go to meet their maker, I think they're going to be disappointed.

    Sad enough that there are people that condemn our troops as murderers, but worse is that people who have defended or contributed to our culture aren't allowed to be laid to rest in a peaceable, private way as they should be. Someone dies serving our country and these fuckers want to throw a party? Disgusting.

    Well, at least thats one, of hopefully many, wins that are achieved against this bunch of inbred turds. As we were talking about on a thread on my server forums, the day Fred Phelps dies, we should all go picket his funeral with signs reading "God hates intolerant in-bred hicks".

      I've seen WBC protesting at a rally last election cycle, they're morons, but they're just morons that are particularly good at pissing people off. It's not that WBC's hate is unique, it's just that people get pissy when their religion is used towards ends they don't approve of. Naturally, any political rally is going to have plenty of protests too-- that one was no different. The entrance had a group set up with their mouths mock-gagged, shouting that anyone that approves of abortion under any circumstances was a murderer. A group of 20-somethings marched around screaming about the power of the people, holding a banner for some communist group that took up the better part of the street.

      If anything, WBC should be pitied. Not only can they not protest decently, but the signs in that video are exactly the same as they were in mid-08. They probably haven't swapped them at all.

        They're the reason why people look at Christians as crazy.

        Godly followers? Or Satan? Hmm..

        But that's funny though.. Smart kid.

              I'm pretty sure Bill O'Reilly offered on-air to pay the court costs for that marine's family.

              WBC is pretty sad indeed. Unfortunately they view any kind of publicity as good publicity. (for them)

              If you youtube a bit, you can find some good videos of ppl interviewing them. There's a particularly good one of a reporter asking the woman about how she had a child out of wedlock, by what she protests won't she and her son go to hell? She looks baffled and hypocritical. It's hysterical

                  Yeah, the very same people. And it is rather sad that people proclaiming to be tolerant of others will associate them with other people of the same religion.

                  This "christian militia" in the news irks me too. Aren't they just another militia that wanted the overthrow the government? I must of missed the part where the Bible and Jesus said to go out and shoot cops. Oh right, because its not there.

                  They only had like nine people, too.

                    Well, This people are totally retarded... They do give Christians a bad name and that is ashame. I am a SGT in the US Army and I am Southern Baptist and I Christian. People can label theirselves as Christian but you are known by your actions. Man will fail you everytime but Jesus won't... Anyways I have served in Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Italy, Germany and all over the U.S. these people are sad radicals... Horrible but God will judge them in the after-life so they will get whats coming to them if they don't change their ways.

                      It's quite odd. Their philosophy was along the lines of "waiting for the end times", and then they've apparently got a plot to have another Waco in hopes of getting people to overthrow the government. They don't even seem to have anything to do with themselves.

                      Still, they are Christians, just as FDR was a democrat when he interned innocent Americans on the basis of their ethnicity, bin Laden is a Muslim leading a terrorist organization based on his ideology, and leaders of countries calling themselves communist were mostly atheists when they were responsible for the deaths of millions. That doesn't mean Democrats have to approve of FDR's concentration camps, that Muslims must condone bin Laden's actions, or that atheists have to say Stalin was an ok guy (I leave out communism, considering that's purely a misappropriation of the name for countries which didn't have communistic economies or societies). Are they extremists? Sure. Are they acting in a way that no sane Christian would? Sure. Are they interpreting the ideology differently than you? Sure. But they're just as Christian as the people that go to a different sect; hell, I imagine most churches would be hard pressed to find two people with exactly the same religious views within themselves.

                      Saying "No Christian would ever X" is just a variation on the old No true Scotsman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia fallacy.

                        Feba, there are distinctions to be made

                        Osama doesn't subscribe to Islam, he subscribes to radical Islam. Radical Islam is of the Crudade mentality - "anyone that thinks different than me should die." Do you know any muslims that personally think and act that way?

                        In nerd terms, thats the difference between Lawful-Good and Lawful-Evil. Professor X and Magneto - what's the difference? One wants to protect those that disgree with/hate him and the other just wants to kill everyone that disagrees with him.

                        These people are not good people and they may define themselves as Christians, but they do not behave as such, so there should be a distinction made.

                          When you see a movie with a Christian person, they're usually "crazy" or overly passionate about their religion. Why is this? It's not from this ONE group, it's from many groups over many years.

                          I know a few crazy Christians lol.

                            Again, I could say the same thing about someone who's a member of a group I support who I disagree with.

                            You can't simply refine someone as non-Christian whenever they do something reprehensible, anymore than I can redefine someone as non-Kansan. Like it or not, they do believe in Christ, his divinity, and ressurection. They are Christians, even if they don't stand by the turning-cheek principle.

                              If you talk the talk, then walk the walk. It doesn't have to be a perfect walk, but it shouldn't be so tremendously out of step with the teachings of what you claim to believe and follow.

                              Things like "Love the sinner, hate the sin" and "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God" should be rather critical parts of their believe system. The way the present themselves and behave shows us that's not the case, though.

                              You know what, I don't want this particular case to further impede on our right to protest - the abortion issue has already done enough damage to that right thanks to both sides and its been used to political advantage by both the RNC and DNC. That said, however, these people need to be kept a reasonable distance away from burial sites because there is nothing of substance here to protest.

                              A man died serving his country - if you want to protest his life, then I'm just going to call you what you really are - an asshole. You're not a Christian in my view, because there's that whole "rejoicing in the inequity of others" bit that they're supposed to be frowning on. You don't celebrate the sorrow and misery of others, you're supposed to be constructive, not destructive.

                              Its not about what you say you are or what you believe; its about what you do, its about action and how you live your life - simple as that. What a few people do is not representative of the whole.

                              A nut that wants to overthrow the government with nine people is just that - a nut. I don't care what claims to believe when it doesn't represent what Christians believe.
