Controversial Westboro Baptist Church Plans Protest in Joplin

Church members plan to protest when President Obama visits tornado victims

The controversial Westboro Baptist Church is planning to protest President Obama's visit to Joplin, Missouri Sunday. On its website, the church writes, "Thank God for 125 dead in Joplin." Church members claim Missouri Governor Jay Nixon has attacked them by promoting laws banning them from protesting at soldiers' funerals.

When they canvassed the station and spoke to the large crowd that had gathered around, no one seemed to remember anything about what had happened.

In Missouri, we call this the "Skidmore solution".

Seriously, I hope they get killed by an angry mob. Ain’t even gonna mince words on this one.

An angry mob, followed by a town-wide case of amnesia. And a preponderance of evidence that it was actually the result of rabid wolves and coyotes. Tragic, but these things happen sometimes.

If the Westboro “Baptist” “Church” people show up there to do anything other than help with the clean-up, they should be shot as looters.

I like the way you think.

Where in the heck do they get the money to do this? The people of Joplin have been through enough. I hope someone takes care of them just like they did in Mississippi.

Hey accidents happen you know . People get run over by front end loaders full of debris or a chainsaws kicks back & just happens to smack one of these shit stains in the mid section or a dump truck backs over somebody not paying attention & while the ambulance gets called it has a hard time finding the location cause everything is smashed all to flinders & all the street signs are gone. Not advocating just saying accidents happen. 8*>

Ahhhhh, well, isn't that something. They must think they are immune to disaster. You know, as a praying person, I know that when we pray, there are bowls of our prayers that release sweet smells to God. They also build up in the bowls and get poured back down on us. God always answers prayer. I also know that He saves up bowls of judgement. God is merciful and long suffering. But, He's also a just God. I'll just leave it at that.

By the way, GO PACK ;)

The tornado victims don’t have the restraint that the military does. They will find themselves in a lot of trouble.

I believe several of these vermin are attorneys. Fred Phelps off spring. They run a law firm in Topeka. They provide the $$$. Nearly $300K last I’d heard. This pays for vans. R&B. Gas,etc.

If I recall correctly when they said they were going to show up in that town that had the mine disaster, a woman said to the media, "if they show up, someone is going to get hurt." (but she didn't say hurt)

They did not show up.

You worship a false god.

No. I did not say anything about McCain/Palin. What I said was that it seems like everytime someone messes with Israel that “stuff” happens. Psalm 14:1
