Who are these people? I bet the media is going to play up these morons.

[ncountylee]

Nutters, can only hope for kool aid to do its thing.

Fred Phelps, et al. http://www.godhatesfags.com/"

This isn't a church. It's the "God hates fags" bunch.

[KC Burke]

Keep in mind that this clown has zero credibility in his home area -- a small group of followers and a clannish family of duaghters.

He has been a democratic party worker and organizer and was a local Al Gore manager, as I recall reading, in one of Gore's earlier campaign.

This guys actions don't come from, or adhere to, conservative principles, but instead he has found an issue to ride to zealotry with his little church.

Who the hell do these people think they are? Protesting at a funeral? If I were the father of the deceased soldier, I'd go smack some of the protesters heads together before the service. This is indefensible.

[DoughtyOne]

This is the wrong way to protest percieved government abuse. This marine gave his life for our nation, protecting these misguided fools' rights. They should be on their knees thanking God for this marine and others.

These loons play into the left's plans to marginalize Christianity.

"The church blames the US government for a bomb that exploded on its compound in 1995."



It's a damn shame that it didn't take all of them out. Protesting at a fallen soldier's funeral is just sick.

[American in Israel]

If they want to protest the government they should picket government offices. If they want to protest God, picket funerals.

Sounds like the Church of the Self.

[Fiddlstix]

The church blames the US government for a bomb that exploded on its compound in 1995.

Huh? Wha.......???

[oyez]

Tastless, tacky, stupid, disrespectful or what?

[backtothestreets]

The media has portrayed this group as a bunch of lunatics, and rightfully so. This group has disgraced a number of final services for military members that died in Iraq.

[Cobra64]

Un-flippin'-believable! Me-thinks there is too much LSD in their diet/caffeine-free/tea. (rolling eyes and shaking head in dis-belief).

[Firefigher NC]

Who are they? A group the media loves to bunch together with us. Bunch of idiots.

[hobson]

I'm confused. Is the church compund in Iraq?

[msnimje]

If it were a US Government Bomb there wouldn't be any members of this church left to protest.

[concerned about politics]

Fred Phelps. He's right about God killing off homosexuals, but the guys taking his obsession too far. He should direct his energies toward fighting legislation from the bench, not toward the good people who protect his right to go nuts over one issue that's dying anyway.

[gop4lyf]

ankarlo on AM 570 here in dallas had fred phelps on the other morning. ankarlo said that if phelps showed up in dallas he would kick his ass. phelps said he was protesting the funerals because we are a nation of fags and since fags bombed his church that we deserve to have our soldiers killed. he also said that he is on the howard stern show alot.

[359Henrie]

I think Freds closet isn't big enought for his action figures

[Travis McGee]

Insane inbred hillbillies, seeking attention.

[clee1]

You know, I someone were to beat the everlovin' shiz out of these scumbags, maybe they'd quit.
