Supporters overshadow protest by radical group
The message they brought was hate.
The words they used meant to hurt.
But the answer they got was 'we don't,' and 'not here.'
A protest on Sunday by a group of religious extremist who used the funeral of a soldier killed in Iraq as a platform for their vitriolic anti-homosexual and anti-military message, prompted a spontaneous counter-protest by Morgan County residents
more:
Three Westboro Church members were dragging U.S. flags on the ground, occasionally walking on them and rubbing them in the dirt.
But the protestors were far outnumbered.

Phelps perverted little cult tends to avoid the Southern and Western USA.
This was the whacked out media-whore that protested Reagans funeral.
The MSM loves his very small band of lunatics.
.........this group survived by causing attacks and then suing - possibly this is the agenda in all of these funeral protests. Incite the pro-war supporters into attacking them and then suing with the help of the ACLU.
I didn't know that, but judging by their signs it looks that way. Those are hateful enough to cause some type of reaction.
Yes, we should be dignified and support our troups, and more of us do than don't. I think that if I saw those signs somewhere close to where I live, I would be very irritated, but I think I would control myself.......maybe....hope so! ;)
I would have the same feelings but that is why I mentioned it. I based that on the comments earlier in the thread about that church suing people.
But, we always win when we act in a manner that shows respect, class and character.
For those not familar with central Indiana. If your going to protest the military or degrade a soldier's funeral, you would do well NOT to pick Martinsville as your target.
Minor miricle these idiots got out unharmed.
THANK YOU!!! They are no more a "church" nor are they "Christians" any more than the man in the moon.
The are agent provocateurs filling face time for a gullible and all too willing media. Someone needs to determine exactly who these people are and how they are funded.

ThePhelps pigs claim to believe that this country is so far gone because we don't all hate homosexuals with every fiber of our being, that God hates us and therefore they should, as God's servants, denigrate the United States.
Now I'm not saying I've led a perfect life, but I'd hate to be them when the "What you did to the least of these" stuff comes up, and it's like "You went to my funeral and said I was in Hell because I endorsed homosexual behavior."
So, I figure they're probably real. If people can look into the Bible and figure that God is enthusiastic about them having anal sex every night, I guess that loneys on the other end of the spectrum aren't that surprising.
Holding a protest in a park or something would be one thing. But at a funeral...if I were the judge and the case came before me, I'd say, "I've got three words for you: Fighting words exception. Look it up."
Don't do that! Their site gives me free intel and I can vector Freepers onto them.
Seriously, don't mess with them. they'll sue you into the ground.
Trust me, their day is coming.
Somebody outside these guys is writing the checks, a Soros type.
Well so far they've been successful in suing. That's how they support themselves ....
We need more support from your local freepers. Thanks to the ones who show.
This group sounds more like reprobates,depraved.never seen anything like this.Sounds more like a cult to me.
