I'm not so sure the Lame Stream Media is doing enough to really "out" this cult. People who love this country and the men and women who fight to defend us know who these people really are. But, I fear there too many in this country who sympathize with these crazies.

What TOWN was this in? I glimmed through the post but location was never discussed.. Was this in Alabama... there was talk at the local boards about facing this group in Huntsville, but no other words.

Need location please if anyone has it.

I'm not quick to rush to the defense of the MSM, but I can't fault them for denying the Phelpsholes the attention they so desperately crave. They live to stir outrage. If they get people to love them, they win. If they get people to hate them, they win.

The only way the Phelpsholes lose is if they're ignored altogether, or if their shouts are met with silence. That's why I have vast respect for the Patriot Guard Riders and their resolve to confront, but not engage. They're not only doing the right thing, but doing it the right way.

Keeping media attention and public reaction away from the Phelpsholes is like keeping oxygen from reaching a flame. Deny them what they crave, and they will fade and die.

I had the same fear. But in their nationwide "campaign," the Phelpsholes have rarely recruited more than a half-dozen local sympathizers. And not for a lack of trying. No, most of their "protesters" are from their own little inbred cult and cottage industry.
