ya know... I'm now finding myself tempted to buy "godhatesgodhatesfags.com" just to tweak them a bit.

And now I find that it's already been bought by some Aussie. Figures

All I have to say on the WBC is what a waste of life.

I wish people with that much passion could put it towards good instead of hate.

I was considering buying that URL for shits and giggles a while back.

Another sibling for Fratching?

I'm surprised...Phelps is a rarity to us and now some Aussie went and bought it....o.O

Not really, more to stick in his craw when he realises it's already taken. The UK gubmint just put him on a list of people we consider undesireable.

Fred Nile? Very vocal.

He was actually placed on the list some time ago, it's only now that the list has been published.

Oh, I found something quite interesting... if you want some major insite into this vile "church"

http://natephelps.com/10801.html

I'll be honest... I was horrified reading that and finding out how Fred Phelps treats his own family.... and makes me less surprised at the vile things he does to others.

The link I posted earlier
has some input from both Mark and Nate. It also goes into more detail into the rest of the kids and the whole episode with Kathy that Nate alluded to. It's a terrible, sordid tale and it needs to spread far and wide.

Tough time deciding which WBC thread to bring up but I'd deem this one as the main one.

That's right, Westboro is going to picket...Comic-Con! Wait what? Comic-Con? Oh, that's right, cause God hates nerds! Everyone knows that!

[KnitShoni]

Seriously? You would think a "church" would have better things to do.

[Hobbs]

I wanna see a picture like this with Fred Phelps instead of Hirohito:

[fireheart17]

What the heck?!

Lol, someone should show up with a sign that says "God LOVES Nerds. They are the smart ones. They can help Him with His issues."

ETA: Going from the Wikipedia article, they apparaently picketed a store that sold Swedish vaccuum cleaners due to a homophobic pastor being prosecuted in Sweden. (WTF)

I'd love to also see WBC protest AvCon....the entire convention is full of kids 15 and older.

Have they picketed Ikea yet?

Considering how wealthy Ingvar Kamprad is, I doubt they dare, lest he hires Blackwater or whatever they call themselves these days to mount an armed assault (no quarter given) on their asses .

Xe (defense industries or some-such like that.) Although I do believe that Xe only takes jobs for the US government. That said, I'm sure there's someone out there who's willing to do that for pay. And plenty who'll probably do it for free
