Phelps does, however, give us a clear demonstration of the fact that even hateful douchebags have the same rights as the rest of us. Putting up with idiots like this is part of the cost of freedom.

Also skafather, FRIG YES COUNTER-PROTEST.

If I was still in Memphis, and I still had a car, I would drive down to this town and mow this picket line over.

Seriously WTF? The [word I can't say on WP]s already ruined the poor girl's senior prom, now they have to go and ruin her graduation ceremony as well, just because she's a lesbian? Seriously I wanna kill the bastards! The only thing stopping me from a massacre at this point is the fact that I'm a thousand miles away from where this is happening and I don't have decent transportation to the scene!

Stuff like this really ruins my day.


I would consider it an honour to have them.

Personally, I think the best way to counteract them would be to have a bunch of dedicated, unwed people making out and grouping each other in front of them in counter-protest.

Nothing would get under their gander more than some lesbians fingering each other inside their jeans and making out heavily.

Mmmmmmmm counter-protest.


Hold an iconoclastic protest outside the Wesbro Baptist Church. That'd be bloody hilarious.

I live in MS, but I'm hours away from the town Constance is in. I don't see why she should have been kept from the prom. I've heard this about Phelps, but that it was unsure if it was just a rumor. I would hate for their graduation to be picketed. Geez, what would their signs even say, "God doesn't want gay people to graduate"? I don't know if the town will take preventative measures in stopping anyone from picketing, couldn't say.

He's also picketing Ronnie James Dio's funeral....which should be a boon for them considering that most of the metal heads probably won't be able to resist assaulting them.

That is a terrible idea. 8O I am amused.

I remember seeing some reporter flirting with a picketting phelpsian once. That was also amusing.

You know, the Phelps' do live in a compound, walled off from the rest of the world, and probably with guns inside (no, I'm not making that up). Why not just have the ATF serve them a warrant like in Waco, and let nature take it's course.

It will be interesting to see the town's reaction. They hate gays, but they don't hate gays as much as Phelps. How are they going to draw the line and say "Our amount of hate is right, your amount of hate is wrong?"


that'll be interesting to see, very interesting, could be a wakeup call for them, we can only hope
