Westboro Baptist Church, the hate group that masquerades as a religious organization, is known for their publicity stunts, but they may have bit off more than they can chew with this one. After a comedian offered to pay for them to fly to Iraq so they can protest real Christian persecution at the hands of Islamic militants, the group tweeted that they have accepted his offer. They want to take their picket signs and head over to a country currently occupied by a group that beheads Christian children without hesitation this ought to go well.
To bring you up to speed: Last week, Australian comedian Adam Hills gave an brilliant, hilarious proposal to the WBC after learned that they planned to surprise, surprise picket Robin Williams funeral. On his show, The Last Leg, Hills pointed out that the infamous God Hates Fags group is quick to march around with signs protesting American hedonism, but dont have the courage to protest the daily persecution Christians in Iraq are facing at the hands of the people threatening to behead Christians if they dont convert.

And take Code Pink with them... heck, they can even send Pelosi back to Syria for all I care.
If they believed what they say, they wouldn't be picking on the dead.
If they mean what they say and had even the hint of a single tiny, little cojone (cojonito?) between them, they'd take on the Gay Gestapo here and protest gay weddings instead, along with the judges who overturn majority voter and court decisions to advance their agenda.
That they don't makes me wonder what they really are.
Maybe they're actually an ACORN like group of gay radicals on the payroll of a Soros or some other lesser known progressive with lots of money.
By their fruits, ye shall know them?
Good thinking!
WBC can’t change the eternal destiny of anybody as they are ignorant of a gospel of salvation by grace.
It was great that Rolling Thunder held them off from the funerals when possible. It would have been even better to have actual gospel preached to WBC. They really are shrunken little, bitter balls of hatred.
Great idea......HEAD OFF over there. ASAP.
I’m glad to see that I am not the only one to keep pointing this out. Why do Westburros not go where their protesting might actually mean something? We can even agree with them that the “gay” lifestyle is an abomination. But unlike them, we think it better to be helpful.
I’m waiting with bated breath to see what Westburros are going to do here. It might be something so ingeniously rotten, so self aggrandizing, so unhelpful, that it would take Satan to have figured it out.
One wishes them bon voyage and may Allah speed them
on their journey.
Who wants to lay odds on whether or not they’ll be able to get visas?
Couple of thoughts here:
1) These are adults, supposedly intelligent. No one is forcing them or hold a gun to their heads. They are making up their own minds. As long as they are not taking any minor children, they can do as they please.
2) I don't "want" to see them come to any harm. But after all the suffering and anguish they have caused so many families I would not be upset if they received some "My name is Earl" Cosmic Karma.
“Do any of you really want to see WBC drawn and quartered like they did to that one poor woman?”
Yes
No, they can’t. OTOH, they pointlessly hurt families, and that just ain’t cool.
