Three of the members from the Westboro Baptist Church dared to enter Nevada today to picket at the funeral of one of our fallen soldiers. The family of Staff Sergeant Sean Gaul was holding an open memorial service for their fallen son today at 11:00am in Reno, NV. The three scum were met by over 200 Patriot Guard Riders and FReepers. They stayed for about 10 minutes and then fled to their car about 500 feet from their original site across the street from the Church, where the services were being held. None of the family or attendees was exposed to the scum. The PGR had them completely blocked off from the view from South Virginia Street. After they left they did a drive by shouting about 15 minutes later. This is the second time they have been met by the combined forces of FReeprs and PGR here in Northern Nevada. We hope they will not come back.
We then covered both sides of the road with about half of the good guys on one side half on the other.
Thanks to Washoe County Sheriff and Reno Police for their traffic control and presence.

Well, God bless you all!
You do us proud!

Anyone who would assault the emotions of a grieving family is a slimeball. I’m happy that there were people who could shield the family from those scumbags but it shouldn’t be necessary.
They should be sued for emotional distress. 1) that will keep them in court and in meetings with lawyers, instead of at funerals 2) it will pile on legal bills and 3) a judgement against them will keep them, and others like them, away in the future.

It is so wonderful to read of an example where these truly evil and reprehensible people who masquerade as a church have not have a successful day of protesting our good and honorable fallen soldiers. God bless you for your service today!

I got an email last night, but didn’t want to risk the ride because of the snow....
Now I wish I had gone! I’d crawl through broken glass to meet these idiots face to face.

Thank you very much for standing up to these cretins. The twisted and sick Westboro cult of hate doesnt just target our fallen soldiers.

Wearing a head brace, Daniel Griffin Jr. stood in front of friends and relatives filling a Northeast Baltimore church yesterday to remember his wife, Bethany, and four children and stepchildren killed in an Ohio highway collision that police say was caused by a drunken driver.
Three members of the Kansas-based Westboro Baptist Church, known for protests at military funerals, were demonstrating about a block from the church in the 7000 block of Harford Road.
The demonstrators said the deaths are God's retaliation against the community for the $11 million award by a jury in Baltimore against the Kansas group.
When I heard about this protest on the radio about this grieving family from my old neighborhood, I very seriously considered leaving work early to go smash some heads of these aberrant a-holes and I wish I would had. I heard they were holding signs saying Thank God for Drunk Drivers. They also said that the family deserved to die because the parents had divorced and re-married. I didnt know this family personally but I know people who do know them and said they were very good people and a very close and religious family.
These Westboro people and I use the term people very loosely, are very seriously disturbed and they need to be confronted and stopped by good minded people where ever possible.
The next time I hear that these imbeciles are any where in driving distance from me, Ill be there to protect the families of the grieving who ever they are, and send these evil, vile, twisted cultists back to the black pit of Hell where they belong.

The PGR is to given a great deal of credit. They were well organized and showed up with flags in hand. The flag bearers lined up in front of the scum and really obstructed the view. It was awesome.
