You've all heard of Westboro Baptist Church, out of Topeka in Kansas, right? You know, the lunatic inbreds (literally) who insist on picketing anything remotely pro-Gay or that they feel is contrary to their insanely twisted beliefs? You've probably seen by now a picture of them: retards holding "GOD HATES FAGS", "GOD HATES AMERICA", or "FAGS = ANAL SEX = DEATH" signs ... Ah, knew you'd remember them.
Well, now Westboro is planning to stage it's first-ever picketing overseas, in Britain, at a school play against homophobia called 'The Laramie Project'. One of the senior wretches at the group, Shirley Phelps-Roper, has even "explained" their actions with the Telegraph ... quite characteristically, too. Excerpts below.
2) Are you flying across to Britain, or is the picket being carried out by members in Britain? If you are flying over, how many protesters are you expecting and when are you arriving?2. Considering that your nation has tried in many ways, including with draconian laws to shut up the Word of God from OFF your landscape, and to make it a crime to plainly say what the STANDARDS of GOD are, (e.g. THOU SHALT NOT lie with mankind as with womankind, it is abomination or THOU SHALT NOT commit adultery, etc.) that I will not be telling any details of our business to get where we need to be.
In that hour, if you or any other soul in the UK has a heart to know your God, and you understand that the end is near, you can yet put away your idols, your false gods and your FILTHY manner of life and you can serve the Lord your God in truth! THAT is your only hope.
... There's plenty more but this kind of garbage gives me a pounding headache each time I try to make sense of it at all. Perhaps it's not meant to make sense. Which only further confirms my increasingly certain suspicions that these clowns really are just a bunch of pointless, loudmouthed and airheaded attention-seekers.
I invite any Brits reading this to lay in wait for this morons, then pelt them with Gay Porn magazines ... or grenades, if you're feeling particularly vindictive. Insanity like this should be outlawed.

On the one hand I want to say withhold the grenades because that would result in a lot of bad press, but on the other hand pelting the Phelps clan with gay porn would be a waste of gay porn. Admittedly, it could have the beneficial side effect of one or more of the male members of the Phelps clan throwing some of it back, saying, "Hey, I've already got this in my coll...oops."
Seriously, though, since they're airheaded attention-seekers, why give them any attention at all?
I know, it's a dilemna ... Dare we laugh at the idiots, making us feel good but knowing it's what they want, or do we ignore them, which both prevents us from having a laugh and entices them to go more and more insane and daring in their publicity stunts?
I say we should laugh at them 'til we get bored of it, then pay them no mind.
What I hate most about them though, other than being plain morons, is that they brainwash kids as well, severing them from any chance they had to a normal life with normal beliefs. It just ain't fair for the kids. Ah well ... Bad things will happen to good people. Life sucks that way.
