The Westboro "church" is a bunch of sickos.

[AZhardliner]

By any standard definition this group is neither “Baptist” nor a “Church.” It needs to be called the Westboro CULT.

The Westboro "church" is a bunch of sickos.

Correct and the group Anonymous should be thrown in jail as well.

[SkyDancer]

If they ever show up at those kid’s funeral, just saying.

[DManA]

Why doesn’t anonymous do something useful, like hacking into their bank accounts and draining them.

[wideawake]

Most of the adult male members of the group are attorneys, and the group makes money by filing nuisance lawsuits.

They send women and children to picket events, rather than risk physical confrontation themselves.

When their access is restricted, they sue on First Amendment grounds and get settlement money. If any members of their group are attacked, they sue and get settlement money.

The group is a business and their product is outrage.

[PghBaldy]

If they label this a hate group, it is a bad precedent. Do they commit violence? They aren’t the KKK or Black Panthers. They are rotten and cruel and hateful but do we really want the Obama govt to determine what is and isn’t a church? I know Obama is already effectively doing this in regards to various orgs, but...

[BipolarBob]

Maybe but I’ll give them a pass this one time. That Westboro bunch really pisses me off.

[TexasCajun]

What jury would convict a person of beating the living hell out of any of those Westboro scum!

[cripplecreek]

Think I’ll just stand back and watch this fight.

Its kinda like muzzy on muzzy violence, the only winners are the spectators.

To put it very kindly.

[concerned about politics]

I love it when the left eats it's own.

[smoothsailing]

Anonymous vs. Westboro Baptist.

It’s like Code Pink vs. The New Black Panthers.

You hope neither is victorious and they totally destroy each other.

There must be some way we can get the popcorn franchise...

[Neoliberalnot]

Westboro is little better than the homo-sickos they attack. Westboro’s methods fall right into the queers laps by making Christians look bad. You gotta wonder which side they are on since homos hate Christians too.

[2CAVTrooper]

But you can’t call a leftist organization a “hate” group.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

I don't have any particular love for Anonymous either. The whole lot of 'em (Westboro and Anonymous) should be put away.
