God Hates Fred Phelps.
Notorious rightwing, anti-gay hatemonger, Fred Phelps‘ daughter, Shirley Phelps-Roper, was carrying around this sign at one of her recent anti-gay and lesbian hate events:
That’s right. The rightwing, homophobic Christian nutbars are “thank[ing] God for 9/11.”
Some other signs this group frequently carries around at their protests include:
“God hates fags!”
“You’re degenerate filth!”
And, the somehow relevant:
“God hates America!”
I’d be happy to read what the LGF and Powerline crowd’s think of these unamerican wackjobs.
Lest you think that ain’t Ms. Phelps, here’s a link to a captioned photo that shows her holding up other anti-gay signs.
Then there’s the one where they show the sillouhette of a member of the Fire Department of New York with the word “Fags” over it.

But I bet all those so-called “Christians” are more than happy to line up at the seafood buffet.

it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what the phelps klan is an indictment of - religion in general…untreated mental illness …dysfunctional family systems…inbreeding…
probably for them to be ignored until they choke on the poison of their own hatred would be more attention than they deserve. but it’s probably the best option.
water balloons filled with cheap perfume work well too however.

These bozos always do that… they even picketed my place of work because we carry Swedish products. Fred is pissed at Sweden because they prosecuted a wingnut pastor for hate speech against gays.
They are wackjobs… they are the concrete version of trolls. Ignore them.

I might add that Fred’s granddaughter said that all gays needed to be killed. She ran against Tiffany Mueller, a lesbian city council person in Topeka, and lost. Even in Kansas, we aren’t *THAT* filled with hatred.

Heh. Indeed. As long as everyone to the left of Joe Lieberman is going to be held personally accountable for Ward Churchill…
