The sick bastards are all DUmocrats!

Speaking of hatred that knows no bounds or party affiliation, the Westboro Baptist Church, famous for picketing the funerals of slain members of the American military, has announced plans to disrupt the funeral of the youngest of yesterday’s shooting victims, 9-year-old Christina Greene.
The child was among the six fatalities that resulted from a shooting spree in Tucson by Jared Lee Loughner that left Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords hospitalized with a brain injury. Christina, who was the granddaughter of former Philadelphia Phillies manager Dallas Green, had just been elected to the student council at school. She wanted to attend the event to see real government in action.
Westboro’s founder, Fred Phelps has run in several Kansas Democratic Party primaries, but has never won. In his most successful bid, as a candidate for the U.S. Senate in 1992, he received 31 percent of the vote.
Phelps was an enormous supporter of Al Gore 1988 Democratic Party primary election and in 2003 wrote a letter to Saddam Hussein, praising his regime for being
IIUC, the Baptists don't have a central authority which could eject Westboro and strip it of use of the name?

Oh, I understand them just fine. Some anonymous vigilante justice is what I had in mind. A good @ss whoopin’ will do wonders for people like this. They have no shame. So they need a firm hand.

I contend that there is ample evidence that the Phelps clan is whacko. Rather than doing something, the Left defends their right to "Free Speech" simply because they are primarily known for protesting the funerals of military personnel... who the left HATE.
Hypocrites.
The Left is totally silent on this connection.
Can you just imagine if.......(I’m getting tired of saying that).
URGENT: WHEN IN THE FUNERAL? I CAN DEPLOY SEVERAL DOZEN PEOPLE IN TUCSON TO IT.
A poster further up in this thread said they do these protests hoping for an aggressive reaction and once they provoke it they sue and win.
DUmocrats are lower than snail sh!t.
I don't know what "IIUC" means but the answer to your question is no.
Maybe even whale sh!t.
I don’t condone violence, but for the life of me, I can’t understand why no one hasn’t at least punched this dude in the face.
If he did, I wouldn't blame him one bit!
This is disgusting. It’s time a few (hundred)patriots show up and prevent these fools from picketing the funeral. There is no reason for this crap.
I think that's why they choose these highly emotional funerals. They are in the business of suing (daughter is a lawyer) anyone who "infringes on their right" to peacefully protest. Plus I think, being Leftists, they hope to push their repugnant behavior to the point that some will call to limit free speech.
They want trouble for money.
Last year at Walter Reid Hospital he was interviewed by multiple media whores for his publicity.
Why don’t they actually picket gay rights rallies (because they’re agent provacateurs for the Democrats)? Why do they only send women and children to picket for them now (because the last time they sent guys out, they got the crap kicked out of them and “nobody saw anything”)?
“That would be an extremely dangerous thing to do on their part considering that the little girl’s father is calling for the gunman’s execution. He just might turn that anger around on them.
If he did, I wouldn’t blame him one bit!”
If the girl’s father dispatched this Phelps character, he might must walk, because prosecutors would have a hard time finding a jury that would convict.
Nothing much we can do about it—but God will sort him out some day.........
