What a bunch of jerks. Do these people call themselves Christians?
I went to this funeral. A large number of bikers including myself drowned out the abusive chants of this group (revving our engines) . The street outside the church was lined with veterans, bikers, school children, firemen, and many others all holding American flags. PFC Tyler Ryan Mackenzie had a send-off worthy of an American who sacrificed his life in service to his country. Every effort was made to keep the family from seeing or hearing this small group of Fred Phelps followers. They left completely intimidated when their parade permit ran out about five minutes before the funeral. I might add that they left in a hurry. If you hear of a military funeral in your area and Fred Phelps plans on being there you should feel obligated to go and drown them out and intimidate them.
People can call themselves whatever they want, but what they say and do makes it clear who & what they really are.
