#2. FReepmail me for assembly point details, times. etc. I'm in Orlando. Do we have someone in St. Pete- Clearwater-Tampa who can take charge on the ground?
I have a co-worker who is the president of a Pinellas Park Eagles, and he's has agreed to post the information at the club for me. This club is full of veterans.
I will be there. Please let me know the time and place to meet, and I'll tell everyone (non-libs) that I come into contact with.
Okay gang. Every word written in this post is true. Please, if you can be there to protect the family in mourning please do so! I can't be there except in spirit, but I support the folks who can.!
Need a Georgia, Florida scramble ASAP!!!
I smell money with a picture of George Soros on the bill...

Fred Phelps and his crew are going to burn in Hell. They will cry out, "Lord, Lord, we prophesied in Your name," but it will do them no good.
just a thought a long the lines of the police bagpipe band in New Bedford that played loud everytime phelps & co. started whipping up their nonsense at a soldier's funeral. I say we have a band for this freep. everytime they start their crap, we play loud. punk rock/patrotic songs. Hell, I'll even sing!
even if we cant up with a songlist, we can make up our own songs on the spot.
suggested titles:
God hates you back
Fred Phelps wants man-gina
shut up, no one cares

I think this guy threatens to attend a funeral at least once a week. Seems he threatened to be there for one a couple of weeks ago, but didn't show.
A pox on him and his minions. Wish I was in the area, or I'd be there.
I'm going from this thread to the airline thread to try and change my flight out of Tampa. Don't know if I'll be able to because it's a Boston connection to an overseas flight but...I swear, folks...talk is cheap, I know, but not being anywhere around is the only thing that will keep me from being there.
Florida stuff.
God bless the family of the slain soldier.
Bump for the afternoon shift.
Prayers that your efforts to counter these twits are successful. Thank you, from Washington State.
Here's the way the services and law enforcement handled Phelps during Chris Piper's funeral in Marblehead. Kudos to Criminal Number 18F for the AAR.

Scott and all who posted in this thread --
First, thanks.
Now for a brief AAR. I did not attend the funeral of Mr Maloney's son. I did attend the Chris Piper viewing and funeral in Marblehead, Mass. I had a bag of Afghan sand to scatter in Chris's gra, which I wound up not using. It was an incredibly powerful service in a Congregational church (where his father is a Deacon of long standing). Chris's brother who lives in Alaska gave the eulogy and made all of us who knew Chris laugh.
The 7th Special Forces Group at Ft. Bragg provided a very professional burial party and sent their brother off with honour.
One special treat was the attendance of an Air Force special operations weatherman who was the SWO on one of Chris's missions with 20th Group. He was in the USA after being wounded seriously at Gardez, and was walking with a cane. He has lost six inches from his left leg and is fighting a medical board to stay in the Air Force -- and in SOF combat weather. A very impressive man.
Chris's previous unit, C Co. 1/20th SF, was well represented. The now-retired ex-SOG company sergeant major that originally accepted Chris into the unit was present, and looking like he'd be ready to do another tour (the Army forced him out at Age 60). About thirty members of the company were present in uniform and a similar number in civilian clothes -- impressive when you consider that there are 83 men in an SF company on paper, and this unit has men overseas right now. The veterans of the SF association also turned out, as did over a dozen local vets of World War II and a large number of Vietnam vets.
One peacetime vet wore his Class A jacket with SP4 stripes proudly, and the ushers sat him next to the SF men with all their baubles.
An Air Force unit was also present in large numbers as Chris's best lifelong friend is in that unit (and now deployed in Iraq).
I was in civvies and almost didn't get in, as the police had barricades. Then I noticed a tall man with a small entourage -- one aide and a photographer -- who was certain to be waved through, so I went through the barricade with Sen. Kerry.
Kerry did not speak at the funeral. The aide was his vietnam-phony "veterans outreach" guy, teh one with the goatee who sings love songs to Ho Chi Minh. I don't know if the photographer was from the Kerry campaign or the Boston Globe (as if there's a difference) but after I pointed her out she got a lot of pictures of Kerry looking presidential in front of a backdrop of the backs of uniforms.
I will give the man the benefit of the doubt, the photog notwithstanding, and think that he came to pay his respects to a great American, and a better man than he (or I).
Kerry did not speak. C-1-20 remembers his speech at the Dan Petithory funeral and was determined not to have a repeat. But any differences the combat soldiers have with Kambodia Krismas Kerry pale next to our differences with Phelps, and I'm sure you are curious about that.
Phelps may indeed be a Democrat, but it's hardly fair to impute his disreputable, despicable behaviour to all Democrats. So, they are supporting the other side in the war, so what, they've done that in every war since 1860, but most of them have enough class not to try to disrupt a funeral. There were more Democrats inside that church than there were in Phelps's protest (about eleven people). And this is a Republican town, and Democrats in special ops are uncommon... but nobody was there as a republican or democrat, just as an American. And Phelps, he was there as I dunno what. A Martian.
The police handled the protest well. They set Phelps up in an area right by the church. Then the State Police's mounted unit put their horses between the Phelpsians and the humans. As the casket was brought in the cops turned the hind ends of their horses on to the protesters, who received the benefit of all substances that issued from the horses for the duration of their protest. Periodically the protesters would try to set up a chant, but every time they did a littla lady with a big set of bagpipes would launch into a hymn or a patriotic or martial tune and drown them out utterly.
In the church, the Piper family and the other mourners never heard a word from the protesters, and the pipes did not interfere with the service at all.
A very professional performance by the police. Phelps excercised his right to a tantrum and no one had to be affected by it.
Still, I can't help but think royal thoughts: "Will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?"
Thanks to all who posted in this thread.
