McALESTER - Members of a Kansas church that protests at military funerals may have found themselves in the wrong town Saturday.
Shortly after finishing their protest at the funeral of Army Sgt. Jason James McCluskey of McAlester, a half-dozen protesters from Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan., headed to their minivan, only to discover that its front and rear passenger-side tires had been slashed.
To make matters worse, as their minivan slowly hobbled away on two flat tires, with a McAlester police car following behind, the protesters were unable to find anyone in town who would repair their vehicle, according to police.
The minivan finally pulled over several blocks away in a shopping center parking lot, where AAA was called. A flatbed service truck arrived and loaded up the minivan. Assistant Police Chief Darrell Miller said the minivan was taken to Walmart for repairs.
Even before the protesters discovered their damaged tires, they faced off with a massive crowd of jeering and taunting counterprotesters at Third Street and Washington Avenue, two blocks from the First Baptist Church, where the soldier's funeral was held
They are lucky it was only tires.
>as their minivan slowly hobbled away on two flat tires...
No spare?
Somewhere out there America has a new hero.
Gee... let me see if I can give a rat’s patootie............... nope... sorry.
LLS
HA HA!!!!!
Checking the “Give-A-S**t Meter”...nope. Still zero. Sorry, Phelps. You lose. Now go play in traffic.
The interesting part (not surprising) is that, according to the police, they could find no one locally who would repair their flat. It is McAlister.
The Police could not say so, but I am sure they were neither surprised by or opposed to this treatment of those who disrespected the dead soldier.
AAA sent a car hauling vehicle from outside and towed the car away.
There is a fine little “bomb factory” in McAlister, and anti-American sentiment is not tolerated there.
Oklahoma is NOT Obozo country. Not a single county in Oklahoma voted for him in the Presidential Election. Not one.
Tody they are protesting at the funeral of Lance Cpl Terry Honeycutt, a marine who died in Afghanistan. The funeral will be in La Plata this morning.
Many Americans will be there to shield the family from this scum. Myself included.
God sent a message to those who would use His name in vain.
That’s true and it won’t be a good day for anyone.
Don’t “tread” on me?
That’s SOOOOO bad!
In Missouri ?
“The wheels on the van go thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump. The wheels on the van go thump, thump, thump all through the town!”
Please give your fellow FReepers an after-action report-I would love to see the hand of God silence these people.
Good.
A missed opportunity for the patriotic police officer to have issued a citation for “operating an unsafe vehicle”, except that would have given them a reason to return to town.
My question? Who is financing these clowns?
