ORLANDO, Fla. — Westboro Baptist Church, whose members are known for protesting high-profile funerals claiming that God’s wrath brought about the deaths, announced its plans to head to Orlando, Florida, after the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.

Officials with the Orlando Police Department confirmed on Thursday afternoon that the group was Florida-bound, citing a letter from the church.

You knew these creeps would show up at some point. Hopefully this "church" will expire by attrition at some point.

I am surprised it took this long for them to use this tragedy as a soapbox from which to proclaim their bigotry. In a moral world these wingnuts would be tarred and feathered before being run out of town on a rail.

He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success. (Job 5:12)

And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector. (Matthew 18:17)

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! (Galatians 1:8)

Do I not hate those who hate you, O Lord? And do I not loathe those who rise up against you? I hate them with complete hatred; I count them my enemies. (Psalm 139:21-22)

May Westboro Baptist Churches die a miserable death, and may their members repent before they are damned.

They are best described as a law firm, as many of their members are lawyers. Their goal is not to protest, but to provoke a reaction. Then they can sue the city for not providing enough security, or whatever.

Please dear God, please cause them to be struck by a blizzard off rabid skunks that can still control their scent glands well enough to give these creeps a HUGE blast. Or, better yet, let them be suitably greeted by mucho Bikers for Trump and given all the respect they deserve.

Westboro Baptist Church

The left loves to pretend and then proclaim this is the Taliban/AQ/ISIL version of Christianity...

All they do is protest and embarrass real Christians by their vile, hateful behavior...

As far as I know they never burned alive young girls or men, raped children, keep sex slaves, kidnapped people, beheaded people...

I mean, it's plain as the eye can see, the two groups are almost the same / S

I continue to be amazed that nobody has shot them, or plowed through one of their funeral protests in an F-350 at full speed.
The stunts they pull in front of emotional people at funerals.... lets just say if I was on the jury of a bereaved parent who attacked, I’d vote not guilty.

Gay Muslim Jihadists vs. Westboro Baptist ‘Church’goers.

Couldn’t they just put up a 10 foot cage, advertise on pay per view and promote it as “Losers Go To Hell” ?

It’s interesting that they can Rachel can twist the word of God it until it has no effect…

Think about it… These people have the correct message… “hell and eternity await the unrepentant..... “

....But not delivered in love with compassion with “tears”… It becomes meaningless .... And the reason that it is my believe that Hell uses this method… Because it causes those real believers who are concerned about these issues… As we should be… To keep quiet… So as not to be thrown in with the “Westborough Baptist Church”… And their elk

My question to those on this thread are is the following… Not so much Westborough church so wrong… But what are we doing right?

“Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. “

1st Corinthians 6:9-11

I think they're fake. They're certainly not Baptists. Who funds them? Certainly not Baptists.

They are lawyers who cause outrage to any decent human being and then sue if they are attacked. They are lower than pond scum.
