I hate this war,but....

Funeral war picketers lose verdict - U.S. Life - MSNBC.com

A sign saying "Thank God for dead soldiers"?????????

 

a so called christian organization they call themselves............I pity these crumbs. well they will be shelling out 11m. the last I heard via the warped media news stations.
just wait till they lose one of their own due to war.

Perhaps if they understood the loss the families of these men face, they would realize the insignificance of their petty concerns.

 

Can't you extradite those guys? I know a couple of places where they would be warmly received!

 

I'm with ya on this Za. Some of those signs just dog gone pissed me off. May those *&$%^&% ^$#@&&^% can just go *&*(%^ and while doing that can also (*&^%^&$. Just let me get my hands on those *&%%$()9.
:rant::rant::rant::rant::rant: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Whew. Ok now. No need for a visit from the panzerpenguin. Breath slowly and think serene place. Ah.

 

To me they are as brain dead and out of reality as our Jihadist friends........

 

send them to Iraq/Iran to the front lines .....

 

Those picketers are nothing but trash. >:-(( Im glad they got sued for 11 Mil and lost the suit. I don't have any sympathy for them at all. All they are are publicity hounds just like cindy sheehan. The more attention they get from the media, the more trashier they will get. I think that 11 Mil suit against them is only good on paper-unless this scummy group actually has assets of somekind?

 

Fred Phelps and his other scumbags have been an absolute abberation to human society for some time now. Whatever one may think about the war nobody has the right to behave like this at some family's funeral rites.

For those that haven't seen them, here is a pleasing and far more massive response:
The 'Patriot Guard are an ever growing group of US bikers that, with the families approval, screen the protesters from the mourners. They're organised not unlike the Hells Angels only with a rather more wholesome purpose.

Patriot Guard Riders -->Home
(The 'Letters of appreciation' sections pretty much say it all.)

Top blokes... support your local chapter.

Cheers,
Adam.

 

i think hell has a special place for people like them.

 

COuld not agree more, well said. Im surprised that this group has been able to get away with their hatred as long as they have.

I wonder if the Govt has removed them from not being taxed?

 

I hear there is some old Gulag camps about 400 miles due west of Magadan, great place for them.

 

What's the connection between homosexuality and Iraq? I consider every Christian a brother of mine, so it is sad for to see their wrongful way of carrying out their zest for GOD.

 

This even made it into the Dutch news.....And I suppose in many more countries too. Saw it on the BBC too. This guy died for your country and freedom,the LEAST one could do is show respect for that, but no, sexual affiliation is more important to these self-righteous people. I really don't like religious fanatics....

 

I mean seriously, what the f#ck!? How can this many people think this is an appropriate response at a funeral? Wow, just f#cking wow.

 

According to them:

 

Really? Then I have to put off my planned visit to the US indefinitely as I underwent a Colonoscopy last week!

And no! I didn't enjoy it!

 

Excerpt from an email I received.




"In Texas we really do pull off the road and stop for funerals......nobody moves until the last car has gone by.

What follows is a message from Vicki Pierce about her nephew James' funeral (he was serving our country in Iraq): ​

"I'm back, it was certainly a quick trip, but I have to also say it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. There is a lot to be said for growing up in a small town in Texas . The service itself was impressive with wonderful flowers and sprays, a portrait of James, his uniform and boots, his awards and ribbons. There was lots of military brass and an eloquent (though inappropriately longwinded) Baptist preacher. There were easily 1000 people at the service, filling the church sanctuary as well as the fellowship hall and spilling out into the parking lot. ​

However, the most incredible thing was what happened following the service on the way to the cemetery. We went to our cars and drove to the cemetery escorted by at least 10 police cars with lights flashing and some other emergency vehicles, with Texas Rangers handling traffic. Everyone on the road who was not in the procession, pulled over, got out of their cars, and stood silently and respectfully, some put their hands over their hearts. ​

When we turned off the highway suddenly there were teenage boys along both sides of the street about every 20 feet or so, all holding large American flags on long flag poles, and again with their hands on their hearts. We thought at first it was the Boy Scouts or 4H club or something, but it continued .. for two and a half miles. Hundreds of young people, standing silently on the side of the road with flags. At one point we passed an elementary school, and all the children were outside, shoulder to shoulder holding flags kindergartners, handicapped, teachers, staff, everyone. Some held signs of love and support. Then came teenage girls and younger boys, all holding flags. Then adults. Then families. All standing silently on the side of the road. No one spoke, not even the very young children. ​

The military presence..at least two generals, a fist full of colonels, and representatives from every branch of the service, plus the color guard who attended James, and some who served with him .. was very impressive and respectful, but the love and pride from this community who had lost one of their own was the most amazing thing I've ever been privileged to witness. ​

I've attached some pictures, some are blurry (we were moving), but you can get a small idea of what this was like. ​

These photos are awesome !! "​

Wish I could post the photos and email​
