Heh, I've read this. I can't take anything they say or so seriously
(That's say or DO seriously, but still can't edit subject lines here it seems) Unfortunately, they pick on vulnerable people, who can't help but be affected by their misguided, malicious antics.
If I wasn't an atheist (or just a Lazeist, as I'm too lazy to be religious), I'd be praying for a well aimed lightning bolt to come down, and smite (what a great word) the rev phelps with furious anger.
Previously on links someone posted an interview with a son of his who'd run away from the church as a kid. Scary stuff.

Loius Theroux's doc on them comes around periodically on Dave now (it was on last night)
In one scene, they're upset that someone chucked a card drink carton at them and hit a child with them while "protesting".
I'd be more worried about the poison being fed to him verbally from day one of his life.

this should cheer you up

They are US military veterans who ride big fuck-off motorbikes. They go to military funerals wherever the Westboro nutters might show up, they then proceed to park all their motorcycles, and hoist big flags, completely obscuring the Westboro bunch from view.
Brilliance!
