The toxic Fred Phelps brigade known as "God Hates Fags" invaded the Tony Snow Funeral in Washington, DC.
I'll have to dig 'em up, but I used to post pics that showed Fred was a dead ringer for the evil preacher in the Poltergeist movies.
No, they are funded by the proceeds of lawsuits they file against anyone who tries to interfere with their activities.
Their funding source is the family law practice and the payouts from a variety of lawsuits. They don't need a wealthy benefactor, even if one would touch them with a 10 foot pole. The don't need a lot. As you can tell from the video they don't dress well. Their homes are owned by the Church. Their biggest expense is airfare, and they must hold the record for Southwest Airlines rewards miles.
Do not mistake these for rational people, open to arguement. They pervert scripture to their purpose and are convinced that the Bible santions their actions. All the examples to the contrary will not change them.
and a baptist
I don’t believe for a minute that they are christian people. I think they are trying to make christians look bad.
I don’t mess with the BB or any of that smaller stuff. If I’m going to shoot, I’m going to do it right, thus F or T-shot. If I’m feeling adventurous I buy the Coyote shot from Winchester, which is a little bigger than normal F-shot.
The Stevens 200 is a 6.5mm Remington - it doesn’t come in Grendel or any of that foreign crap. Problem is finding ammunition for it. Everyone in the States sells .30-06, but nothing in .25-06! It’s a great rifle, none-the-less.
I’m sure the MSM won’t be showcasing this tonight including his association with Liberal RATS.
Sadly, Fred would disagree with you. This is a group of people who have convinced themselves that they are doing God's work, and that they are destined for a place of honor in Paradise when they die. Personally, I think they're going to be very, very disappointed on that last part.
This is nothing more than a leftist front group trashing Christianity. Wonder if they were at Russerts funeral...
The Fruit of the Spirit is no where to be found in them. They are phony as a three dollar bill.
No, they aren't.
Wonder if they were at Russerts funeral...
Yes, they were. Link
Well, if true that makes them much sicker than I had hope for.
Bible? Heck, I think that woman has a different God than we do.
Don’t let it get to you. People like her will get their due justice eventually.
They know they’ll get a lot of publicity.
They showed up hoping to get a sound-byte or video-byte here or there. Maybe an Associated (with terrorists) Press picture.
I’m thinking there will be little said about their being there and in 24 hours, nobody that does hear it will remember.
Phelps and his band of misfits are politically motivated and funded attention whores. Nothing more.
Was that your voice on the vid? sounds like you.
Sorry I missed this. I went down there and didn’t see ANYBODY.
Bummer.
I expect them to fade a bit once Old Man Phelps dies.
