The town DOES want them out of town asap.

A suggested alternative method of transportation.

I need to remind all of you about the Patriot Guard. My husband became a participant several years ago about the time it was first created.... to my knowledge BECAUSE of Phelps and his antics. The Patriot Guard consists of motorcycle patriots that builds a ‘wall’ between the funeral and the protesters. It is a fabulous feeling to hear numerous bikes revving their engines to drown out the noise from protesters. The Guard appears only by the family’s permission. It is so awesome to see these proud Americans exhibit their honor and reverence to a fallen soldier.
And you can be sure that if the Patriot Guard were present in OK, they were NOT the ones to slash the tires. It is a commitment of each guard to always stay within the law.

and, one assumes, they were traveling out of town, so it was a rental car. Maybe the rental company could charge them for replacing with tires that don’t conform to the rental company criteria.

Look in the picture posted in post #53 directly above your post. The van has Kansas plates. I doubt they'd fly from Kansas to Oklahoma.

Yeah now they’ll have some of their inbred family watching over the vehicles. But someone could still skillfully throw a few triangular tire spikes under tires to accomplish the same

Maybe we’ll see more of this, and the traitors will wise up. America is not impressed by cowardice.

Or put rainbow and “Gay Pride” bumper stickers in the back of their minivan.

Or a Palin 2012 sticker - to guarantee the van will be keyed at a later time.

Has anyone thought of 1/2 of a bottle or so of “doe in heat” deer scent liberally sprinkled down in the HVAC plenum below the windshield?

That would knock buzzards off of a gut wagon!

These people's protests are nothing more that "Fighting words":

There are certain well-defined and narrowly limited classes of speech, the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise any constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous, and the insulting or "fighting" words — those which by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace. It has been well observed that such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas, and are of such slight social value as a step to truth that any benefit that may be derived from them is clearly outweighed by the social interest in order and morality. Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire, 315 U.S. 568 (1942).

As I see it, they do not engage in protected speech. They are engaged in tortious infliction of mental distress and the victims of their conduct are legally justified in protecting themselves through self help. I bet a jury would agree.

My theory is that they are leftist trolls.

What's your evidence? Or did I miss the "/s" tag?

I have suspected it for a long time. I believe their antics are intended to make Christians look bad. They are NO Christians (the Phelps idiots).
