Group Drops Plans To Picket Amish Funerals
This is why I always hesitate to identify myself as a Christian - these people are freakin' looney tunes!!!! And I love Gov. Rendell's response!
Group Drops Plans To Picket Amish Funerals POSTED: 12:57 pm EDT October 4, 2006 UPDATED: 1:36 pm EDT October 4, 2006 Email This Story | Print This Story Sign Up for Breaking News Alerts A Kansas church group that had planned to disrupt the funerals of 5 Amish girls has changed its plans after cutting a deal with a talk-show host. The Westboro Baptist Church routinely pickets military funerals, saying that American servicemen and women are dying overseas because God is displeased that the United States tolerates homosexuals. It had threatened to show up in Bart, Pa., but dropped those plans today after radio talk-show host Mike Gallagher agreed to give the group one hour of air time on Thursday. The group had feuded with Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell and blames Rendell for the rampage by gunman Charles Roberts in Bart, Pa. Gov. Rendell said Wednesday had asked Amish elders if they wanted state police protection from the Kansas church group. Rendell also asked the members of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan., as well as members of the public and news media, to allow the Amish to conduct their funerals in privacy. "I won't do anything that the Amish community doesn't want us to do," Rendell said. "If they want us to do something, we will make sure that (church members) can demonstrate, but they demonstrate far enough away that they don't interfere with the privacy of the funerals." In a statement on its Web site, the church blamed Rendell for the deaths of the Amish children because of comments he made about the Westboro group on national television several months ago. "They're insane," Rendell responded when asked about the group's statement. In June, Rendell signed legislation into Pennsylvania law designed to restrict Westboro Baptist Church's picketing by making it a crime to demonstrate near a funeral or memorial service in Pennsylvania.

I like that governer :)
it takes balls to publically call a religious group nuts. i mean really, how much of a pathetic jerk do you have to be to pick on the Amish? And what is a christian fgroups' problem with them anyway? are they TOO christian and pious? Just because they can be devout without blaming everyone else for their probalems doesnt make them bad....

Ahh good ole Fred Phelps, I live in topeka Kansas and we put up with there group and there wandering the streets with there wonderful signs of silhouttes of guys sodomizing each other and the upside down hung flagsand other odd remarks, Like God Hates the Swedish. Makes me proud to be an American to know if I go batshit crazy that I just might get away with doing some of the things I keep locked up in my head. And no I do not support this group, or the crap they display on there signs.
Fred just go home to your compound. I mean house, I mean tax exempt church.

These fuckin' fruitcakes do for Christians what the terrorists do for Muslims... In short, make their respective generally good religion looks like it's full of fuckin' retarded assholes. Why is it always the nutjobs that are the most vocal and/or get the most press?
I am about 99% positive that if these fucks picketed a funeral of someone I knew, I would be getting arrested for assault. Sure, it'd start off as degrading banter, but upon their refusal to listen to reason, I'd probably be left with no option but to try beating some sense in to them. I wonder whos fault they'd proclaim it was if someone torched their church....

He thrives on the hatred people spew at him. That little group thinks it's in Sodom & Gommorrah. They think they're being persecuted because of how righteous they are. They think they're martyrs. If only people would just ignore him and let him fade back into obscurity instead of giving him all this attention.
