Fred Phelps and his merry band of misanthropes at Westboro Baptist Church plan to picket the funerals of those killed in the Virginia Tech shootings, according to a message on their website:
"WBC will preach at the funerals of the Virginia Tech students killed on campus during a shooting rampage April 16, 2007. You describe this as monumental horror, but you know nothing of horror -- yet. Your bloody tyrant Bush says he is 'horrified' by it all. You know nothing of horror -- yet. Your true horror is coming. 'They shall also gird themselves with sackloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads' (Eze. 7:18).
Why did this happen, you ask? It's simple. Your military chose to shoot at the servants of God today, and all they got for their effort was terror. Then, the LORD your God sent a crazed madman to shoot at your children. Was God asleep while this took place? Was He on vacation? Of course not. He willed this to happen to punish you for assailing His servants."
Gee, I’d sure hate to see ‘em have some kinda accident or somethin’...
If a sniper got one of them they would sue the government entity for not protecting them. The Phelps clan is loaded with lawyers. Phelps himself was disbarred for various misdeed years ago.
They are just begging for a distraught family member to go poastal on them by driving their car right through the middle of their protest, mowing them down....
That paints a lovely picture but they would just turn around and sue anyone who touched them.
I cannot really say what I would do in that situation,
But if I was one of the fathers, and they protested my daughter’s funeral, saying that she deserved to die.....I would get my affairs in order because I would be spending a lot of time in prison after I got done with them.
Ahhhhh nuts, and all this time I thought it was heredity from my Mom’s side of the family.
If this band of crackpots showed up at my families funeral, There’d be a few more bodies to be burried, that’s all I’m going to say about that.
When I thought about all the funerals that would be taking place, I immediately thought about Fred Scumbag and his ilk protesting. What a piece of garbage he is!
Indeed. I’d have a very hard time not reacting...and I’d do any jail time whistling a happy tune.
No survivors, no lawsuits!!!!!!!!!
Of course — he’s looking for the media circus. I just hope that no one offers him the radio air time, as they did after the Amish school shootings.
...
So he sends out women and kids in the hopes that they will be injured badly enough to win another windfall judgment.
So, when the women and children are off "protesting" the old man is home alone?

Sue them until they cease to function.
Take a powder, Virginia. I’ve spent my share of time in and around the old I81 corridor, have family in the area, so I’m not questioning you at all.
I’m just suggesting that anyone following through with the beatdown (while I will give them a major thumbs up) is just assisting with the funding of their future activities.
Someone needs to Tune this guy up! A complete Tune-Up!
But I’m also sure, as someone already posted, they as individuals will be there.
Re FR, any FReeper who can be there, will be. I’ll see about putting up a thread on it.
[Mr] T
These funerals are private religious ceremonies and it is a FELONY to disrupt them.
Well since he believes these kids were killed by God, should be fun watching his eyes when I claim that role against him.
Yep, looks like the good folk on FR are on top of this one, again.
And I think everyone will be keeping an eye on this .... situation.
God hates the likes of Fred Phelps.
