For those that believe in the "rights" of Fred Phelps and his asshole cronies, have you no passion or anger at the one of most base violations of human decency?

Just because I understand it is acceptable by the letter of the law, I have a serious issue with the churches decision.

Personally, if I was at that funeral.. I would have gotten a ride to jail.. I most likely would have tried to knock as many as those asshats on their asses.. but in the end, it would have cost me everything materialistic I would every have.. because that is what they want.. retaliation and money.. but I would have felt justified in the end.

Damn, I had been hoping that this type of bullshit was over 40 years ago.

I can not begin to fathom the tremendous grief and loss of Mr. Albert Snyder.
And a young man never to live his life, who in fact gave his all for his country.

While I wish no ill befall any one person, should Fred Phelps obituary appear in tomorrows newspaper...........I would smile.

I think there would be quite a few people that would be at his funeral....to let his family and followers know what we think of him.
And the yellow stains that would be on his grave would keep that fact known for a long time.
+1 to you, VR

Have you ever done something as a kid and been punished and despite being punished, you felt it was still worth it?

Well, I'd be in jail with you guys for breaking someone's jaw. But, it would be worth it.

Yes, they have the Right to Free Speech. I'm not arguing that. I'm just saying if that was my family member....

This should be a call to the most flamboyant homosexuals from across the country to legally picket outside and legally disrupt inside every single function that this "church" has for the next ten years. There should be a gay rights parade around the "church" block starting 30 minutes before every service.

Who wears short shorts? They wear short shorts; every single moment of every single day right in these bigot's faces. Rainbows should block out their sun.

There have been many gay protests of churches around the country since the 1980s, hosemeoff, not all of which have been exactly peaceful. There have been instances of militant gays charging into church services, defecating on floors, throwing around condoms filled with liquid hand soap (in some cases, used condoms), simulating or even performing sexual acts -- in front of children, no less. There have been homosexual pickets in which they scream things like "Bring back the lions!" There have been rocks thrown through windows. Anti-homosexual billboards have been vandalized. Arson and death threats have been made against pastors and churches that preach against homosexuality.

This stuff already occurs.

...As far as this "church" and Phelps goes, they have been in "business" for a long, long time.

Decades.

I have been personally aware of them since either 2004 or 2005.

I have never commented on them before, and probably shouldn't have done so now.

At least many more are aware of them than before, and as outrageous as this is to me, this whole thing is probably a "net plus"---the part about dad paying these fees...

He isn't going to have to personally pay shit out of his own pocket, and I should have said that up front. He might be the signatory on a check, but those fees are covered, trust me.

I personally despise the Phelps and their ilk. If I tried to come up with a post that adequately expressed my contempt for them, I'd probably get banned. But the price of freedom is inconvenience and sometimes even danger. I'd rather put up with the pain of a sunburn than be forbidden to play on the beach.

Let them rant and rave. They're simply forging themselves a long, heavy chain for the next life.

If only all could feel what that felt like...

Edit-- Shit, I was gonna expand upon this, but never mind.

I kind of take back the whole "If only" statement. Oh, man, what a great honor to have known and served with those that got through all of that, plus those that just didn't quite make it through--(far way from any combat zone) for a myriad of reasons that I am sure you are aware of-There were a lot of very good men in that group too. What a fucked up place this country is capable of becoming. I gotta shut up now, I'm also still in a froth about Abu Ghraib, perhaps far more so... you can see I am incapable of leaving a sleeping dog lie.

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Rude!

beast (2h) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (5h) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (8h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (9h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
