Church plans to picket girls’ funerals
As if they don't have enough to deal with. :mad::mad::mad::mad:



LANCASTER COUNTY, PA - A Kansas-based group that proclaims “God hates fags” plans to picket the funerals of the Amish girls killed in Bart Township.
*snip*
The Kansas group says the Amish schoolgirls were “killed by a madman in punishment for Gov. Ed Rendell's blasphemous sins against Westboro Baptist Church.

"Gov. Ed Rendell — speaking and acting in his official capacity to bind the State of Pennsylvania — slandered and mocked and ridiculed and condemned Westboro Baptist Church on national Fox TV," the group says on its Web site.

“Rendell also revealed a conspiracy to employ the State's police powers to destroy WBC in order to silence WBC's Gospel message. Co-conspirators identified by Rendell included state officials, citizens, lawyers, legislators and media,” the Web site says.

5. Their brand of Christianity versus the Amish Christianity - makes one wond
wonder what Jesus would say and do. I know it makes ME cringe in shame.

6. WBC- These aren't people. They are a fetid cult of ghouls.
Picking at the corpses of dead children to exact revenge on some insane schizoid disconnected imagined grievance. Families and young children dead and being victimized anew in their death.

"Gospel message". Certifiably insane, and their pathetic families don't have the guts to have every last one of them committed to state mental hospitals where they belong.

7. I was just on the road and heard Mike Gallagher on the radio
It seems he and his network brokered a deal with this group whereby they'd be given an hour of air time to rant, and forfeit picketing the Amish funeral. Apparently, they accepted, but with provisions such as no interruptions.

13. You missed the best part of the article!!!
Edited on Wed Oct-04-06 12:37 PM by MrCoffee
"In a related development, a group with links to the Church of the Nazarene in Grove City, Ohio, says it is considering coming to Lancaster County to keep the Westboro Baptist Church protesters away from the funeral locations.

A spokesman with “Leave A Mark Ministries,” a Christian motorcycle club, said his group is discussing plans to make the trip to Lancaster County."

Ride safe, fellas, you're doing God's work.

15. That is crazy. Has any one sort of looked at this school
It had no guards and the other two schools this week were armed to the teeth. I do not think any of that stuff is working. Both types seem to mean not one thing if some nut wants to get in to kill some one.

16. I hope they all get sizzled by a lightning bolt.
There are no words to describe the unmitigated vileness of Fred Phelps & his traveling inbred freak show.

18. No Phelps is a Dem
and was a contributor to Gore in 2000.

He also attended the Clinton 1992 inauguration as a special guest of the president.
