Fred Phelps Alert! D.C. Chapter to Defend Honor of Sailors and Marines at Beth. Naval Hosp. 4/29/06
Wednesday, April 26, 2006 | Kristinn

Posted on 04/26/2006 7:18:05 PM PDT by kristinn

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic invites all FReepers and lurkers in good standing to join us this Saturday outside Bethesda Naval Hospital as we defend the honor of our sailors and Marines from the despicable Fred Phelps and his traveling freak show laughable called the Westboro Baptist Church.

A report about the last time we encountered the Phelps Freak Show can be found here (graphic heavy).

The Montgomery County police will be there to make sure everyone's rights are protected. The Phelps crew will do their schtick from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. We'll be there early to set up and be prepared for their arrival.

When: 11:45 a.m. Saturday, April 29, 2006

Where: Bethesda Naval Hospital, Wisconsin Avenue and Jones Bridge Road.

Bring: American and service flags, and signs bearing messages of support for our sailors and Marines.

Travel, parking: The nearest Metro station is Bethesda-NIH on the Red Line. Street parking is available in side neighborhoods. The best parking areas are on Brandt Place, Glenbrook Parkway and Maryland, in that order. They are off of Jones Bridge Road about 500 feet from the corner we'll be at.

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

Well how many laws need to get passed to bury these lawyers(figuratively speaking of course~groan~)before they cease and desist?

I don't think a whole bunch of bikers would be conducive to the well being of our guys/gals. I guess peaceful, candlelight vigils with lots of prayers is the ticket, because these Westboro vermin don't speak the Lord's word.

I think the actual name of the Metro station is Medical Center.

There in Spirit, though!

This Californian is on your side, and sends his support. Phelps and his gang of demented, hate-drunk cretins must be countered!

God bless our troops, our veterans, and those who support them.

D.C. is the "Mecca" for FReepers. There are soooo many loonies here that we have fun almost anytime we leave the comfort of our house.

ALL: BERT from Tenn. is coming up for the weekend. He plans to make 3 of the four FReeps.

If you can't make the WH Correspondence Dinner, try Olney at 3:00 - 4:30. Its 25 minutes up Connecticut Avenue to Georgia Avenue from Bethesda Naval.

It's time for people with access to reporters to spread the word about the reality of the Phelps gang. This is the first time I have read about their fondness for lawsuits - and I spend way too much time reading FR, and listening to talk radio.

I wish I had known about this earlier. I have a church flea market and then I'm singing with the choir in a music festival in Oakton.

Remember to point out that Phelps is a lifelong Democrat.
