The Examiner ^ | 20 Dec 12 | Dana Viera

Posted on 12/21/2012 6:53:53 AM PST by LSUfan

The Westboro Baptist Church had said that they planned to picket and protest at the funeral services of the 27 victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre that occurred last Friday but so far their threats have not happened.

Now they are saying via their website, godhatesfags.com, that they will preach to everyone at the fallen marine, Sgt. Michael Guillory of Pearl River, Louisiana's funeral...

I've heard that there are a lot of lawyers in that "church" and they are very litigious. Basically they are daring anyone to cause them trouble and then suing them or threatening to in order to get out of court settlements.

Personally, I would love someone with nothing to lose give them a good thrashing.

Using an AR-15 against those clowns would be praised by about everyone.

A few of them did, in Mississippi, a year or so ago. The people responsible were not able to be located by investigating authorities.

How does a baptist church in Topeka manage to relocate itself all over America, from one place to another almost daily?
What’s the source of their money to do all this? (Soros?) They are so incredibly insulting to so many people, so inconsiderate of nearly everybody, so offensive almost all the time, there’s got to be a story behind all this krapo. And, a good way to find this out is to “follow the money....” — who’s paying for all this disruption of the American social fabric and harmony?
And,
just curious but...
do they ever stay home and just pray?

Here is a link to the membership list of this “church”, including all their family connections: http://www.anonpaste.me/anonpaste2/index.php?65e2832b96b888e3#Uxqr8wrq3ljskOY76+ubZQvSmcEtYCbIfZBqWpaGcMI=
Westboro is not a church but a family of lawyers who make their money suing others who object to their obnoxious pursuits. Do they get money from other sources such as Soros? I don’t know, but I wouldn’t be surprised. BTW, Fred Phelps is a Democrat who has run for office numerous times. He was a big supporter of Al gore.

really!? a family full of lawyers (why does “nest of vipers” come to mind?)
....
amazing!

if this is correct, why does the media never point this out?
covering up for a highly-visible Illegal Alien is one thing, but covering up for a “church!?” you’d think maybe the media would just LOVE to expose the falsity of a “church?”

People are already arriving at the auditorium in Slidell. I don’t know what kind of an event will be happening yet but I am sure they will let Westboro know, in some way they are not welcome at a hero’s funeral. Slidell is less than 50 miles from Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS. Maybe some road trips are planned.

Why does the media not point this out? Two reasons. One is that most journalists don’t bother to check out the facts. Journalism as a profession anymore is a joke. But even when a journalist in the MSM does take a little time to find out the facts, they are typically not concerned with the truth when it suits their purposes to falsely connect a fake church with the real thing. Christianity is under attack in the US. The MSM rarely has anything positive to say about churches unless they are liberal.
