Democrat Fred Phelps and Westboro announce plans to picket 9-year-old shooting victim's...
Hillbuzz ^ | 1/9/11 | Kevin DuJuan

Posted on 01/09/2011 3:39:39 AM PST by Daisyjane69

The Left does some truly despicable things in this world, but this is a new low for Democrats.

Former three-time Democrat gubernatorial candidate Fred Phelps Jr. (commonly called just “Fred Phelps”) and his Westboro Hate Group have announced plans to disrupt the funeral of 9 year-old shooting victim Christina Greene.

Christina was murdered by Jared Lee Loughner yesterday in his assassination attempt on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. The little girl was born on September 11th, 2001, so her parents have been cursed with a horrific trifecta of high profile trauma: their daughter born on the worst day in our generations’ lives, their daughter murdered in an assassination attempt on a member of Congress, and Democrat Fred Phelps aiming his hate machine at their family during their daughter’s funeral.

Democrat Phelps (an enormous supporter of Al Gore’s, though the media conveniently leaves off that he’s a Democrat and instead likes to imply he’s a conservative, which he is not…he’s a Democrat, and ran repeatedly on the Democrat ticket unsuccessfully for several elected offices) disrupted the funeral of Elizabeth Edwards last month, because it is what he does.

Christina was murdered by Jared Lee Loughner yesterday in his assassination attempt on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. The little girl was born on September 11th, 2001, so her parents have been cursed with a horrific trifecta of high profile trauma: their daughter born on the worst day in our generations’ lives, their daughter murdered in an assassination attempt on a member of Congress, and Democrat Fred Phelps aiming his hate machine at their family during their daughter’s funeral.

Democrat Phelps (an enormous supporter of Al Gore’s, though the media conveniently leaves off that he’s a Democrat and instead likes to imply he’s a conservative, which he is not…he’s a Democrat, and ran repeatedly on the Democrat ticket unsuccessfully for several elected offices) disrupted the funeral of Elizabeth Edwards last month, because it is what he does.

On a day when a family is hurt the most it could possibly imagine being hurt, this horrible man makes things just a little worse for all involved.

There are no printable words for what I imagine we all think of Phelps and Westboro.

Below the fold, there’s the video of Phelps making the announcement that he’s going to disrupt little Christina Greene’s funeral and traumatize her family. It’s like watching a video of Osama bin Laden or Dracula talking about the evil things they are going to do next. Watch it if you must, but it’s stomach turning. It’s the most horrible thing I have ever seen, frankly.

Do not click “More” if you do not want to see the Phelps video…it’s really, really bad.

The people of Tucson need to stand outside the funeral area and when this POS group show up, physically pick them up and take them to the US/Mexico border and allow them to deal with the drug smugglers and illegal immigrants . This family has suffered enough now scum suckers come along is BS. ENOUGH The Insanity of Westboro must stop.

Wow... Phelps is a Liberal False Prophet masquerading as a Baptist Preacher.

Disgusting on all levels.

From what I understand, Christina Greene and her family are Catholic. I hope the Bishop of Tucson is bold enough to call out Phelps for the fraud of a Christian that he is, and makes it clear that any of the WBC moonbats who dare step onto the Parish property will be arrested for trespassing post-haste.

Fred Phelps is an agent provoceteur for the Hard Left. Just as this Jared Loughner (sp?) was a self appointed enforcer for the Hard Left. The Hard Left is evil.

For those who do not know, Hillbuzz is a Chicago-based website of gay males who campaigned for HRC in 2008. Politically, we would refer to them as Reagan Democrats, as they are not hard left libs.

When they saw the thuggery and shenanigans done by BO’s people in the Dem primary, they decided they would not support BO in the general election. They knew & know how corrupt BO and his cronies are, as they live in Chicago.

Along comes Sarah Palin, to join McCain’s ticket. They campaigned (making calls, etc) and traveled to neighboring states in the Fall of 2008. Calling themselves Democrats for McCain/Palin.

They left the Democratic party completely on Christmas Eve, 2009 when the Senate passed their version of Obamacare. They are political independents now and will NOT join the Republican party, because of the corruption in the Illinois state party. Additionally, they are no fan of the RINO candidates the establishment Republican party tries to foist on the voters.

Bookmark the site. You’ll learn a lot about the inner workings of the Democrap party and how to defeat them at their own game.

Thank you for peppering the title and summary with the pertinent facts regarding the domestic hate group known as the Westboro "Baptist" "Church." Far too many people think that the WBC is supposedly "conservative," and their actions give the left something to try to fight us with.

Now here's the funny thing, did the WBC announce that they are going to picket the funeral of the gay activist who was found murdered in New York City last week? Or do they focus their protests only against places where straights congregate?

WBC is anti-Catholic too, given that one of their three main slogans is "priests rape boys" (to go along with "God hates fags" and "God hates the world").

Phelps' whole argument, that the shooting is some twisted "God turned the shooter on YOU" notion is based on the lie that the shooter was a Vet. False prophets don't let little things like facts get in their way. Like I said upthread - Phelps and WBC are disgusting on every level.

The Phelps are a diseased collection of inbred lawyers. They sue at the drop of a hat, and a good portion of the money they use for vile crap like this comes from court settlements and judgements.

This is about to ratchet up to a whole new level.

Green was the daughter of a Los Angeles Dodgers scout and the granddaughter of the wild man Dallas Green. A take no prisoners type of guy.

I wonder if Phelps will now back down.

I hope they will come to the funeral to protect the family.

Not eradicated - - tar and feathered. It is an appropriate protest with great historical precedents.

Seriously, is there a jury anywhere that would convict a person of tar and feathering these maladroits if they protest at this young girl’s funeral?

Not a chance.

They will not come as an organization. Read their mission statement and understand what their mission is. The child does not qualify. Their mission certainly is not opposing the Phelps family wherever the latter may rear their demented heads.

Some who are members of the Patriot Riders could show up as individuals. That would be their choice of course.

#1 reason to bring back public dueling.

Ever since I was child, when I first heard about dueling, I always thought it the most reasonable, honest method for two irreconcilable parties to finish an argument.

I was mortified beyond comprehension when I found out that dueling had been outlawed in America. *Outlawed*. In *America*, for heaven's sake.

I tie the rise of the legal class and the destruction of justice in America to the outlawing of dueling. It allowed words to take precedence over deeds, and made anathema the concept of putting one's life on the line in defense of one's honor, as well as expecting and demanding the same from your fellow countrymen.

Money is a poor substitute for blood.

Dueling was the only thing that kept an otherwise dishonest man to his word. Lies were punishable by death.

Since we lost that, we ended up with exactly what you describe.

Huh? That assumes the lying bastard would agree to a duel, and the one telling the truth, was the winner.

Dueling left a lot to be desired, especially if lying bastards were expert in the use of word, sword, and pistol.

You make a good point. The threat of a duel on the spur of the moment was perhaps the real force to be reckoned with.

The end result of the duel was no guarantee of true justice, I’ll grant that.

Fred Phelps is virulently anti-Catholic and runs an anti-Catholic site that I won’t name because it is perverted. In many ways, Phelps hates Catholics more than gays. Phelps is just a hate machine. I put him on par with Osama bin Laden, Charles Manson, and Lori Drew.

Cheburashka is right, buffyt.

As a member of The Patriot Guard here in Maine, I can tell you that they they will not attend, because that is not their/our mission.

There is little in my life that has been as difficult, painful, and requiring as much self restraint as standing for the Fallen, and listening to these moonbats spew their twisted venom.
It is one of the hardest things I have ever done.

I am in hopes that the good citizens of Arizona stand together and shield the family in a non-violent, non-confrontational matter, rather acting like a shield.

My heart is with the victims and their families, and fervent prayers are lifted.
Ms.B
