WBC Pickets my High School

[Radeonx]

You're first mistake is the "Oh, they're crazy why bother figuring them out" point of view. They have a very specific agenda; Pissing people off till someone physically assaults one of them, then they sue and take the money to fund the spread of their pretend Jesus-babble. That's at the heart of protesting anything that will really make them look like fucks.

.. Wow, their way of getting money is highly inconsiderate of the public and a disgrace to everyone who follows a religion. They are a bad example and thus make the rest of us believers look bad. I mean, seriously..? Protesting is doing something for the greater good that you feel is right. Don't they have any respect for people or are they going to be so rational that they call out against every race and sexuality there is known to man? Sorry for the ranting, but this is starting to get ridiculous to a point I just hate the words WBC alone.
What they are doing is totally the oppisite and they know it. Gosh, I really wish that they would be put to a stop. Probably make a law to have them unable to attend certain places after doing so for so long. They really getting on my nerves..

While everyone and their grandma agrees that they are all fucking stupid, the government can't make laws to solely restrict them and their protests, which is a complete and utter shame.

Get a male friend and make out with him in front of them.
Neither of you have to be gay to enjoy it.

Thats disgusting, and i wouldn't enjoy a second of it nor would i ever do it.

This could possibly cause a bad reputation for the parks to be spread, putting a dent in our tourism-driven economy. I don't see the rationale behind this. Thoughts?

It won't - they'll appear a few times at most and that'll be that.

You don't even have to do that - they banish members (their own family members) for taking too much interest in the opposite sex. Just start getting off with a girl in front of them and it'll do the trick. Mind you, they seem to thrive on the idea of everyone going to hell, so maybe its better to think of something else.

"Brutish teachers and hateful parents".

Does anyone else see the massive irony in this?

The bigger, more massive irony is the fact that if they do actually study some form of the Bible, they must've, at one point, read that God loved everyone and he loved them all equally and that the life message of his son while on this Earth was "Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You". Accoding to that, WBC apparently wants me to piss on their tombstones and shit on their caskets. BTW, I did create a thread about WBC from an inside point of view, just in case anyone is interested...

...I just read the beginning of what I just typed and realized that it totally sounds homosexual.

They're trolling for attention since there hasnt been a lot and their websites are down. Just get a bunch of gay people and picket them, like this:

[UnkeptBiscuit]

Well, they've apparently got a few other protests coming up in my city, as well as in Florida. They're headed to the Kennedy Space Center (?), and I heard on an anti-WBC site that they're also headed to Bishop Moore High, which is a Catholic school.

Universal Studios and Kennedy Space Center... Is it me, or is this starting to sound like a vacation?

The media eats that shit right up so it's never going to stop. All you can do is try to ignore them... Or picket their churches I guess.

Sounds like it calls for a paintballing drive by.

Or maybe a waterfight that "accidentally" winds up involving them too.

Okay maybe this is just me but two straight dudes making out just to spite them seems like a bigger fuck you than pretty much any other combination.
Of course, I could just like in reality be this huge flamer.

Thats disgusting, and i wouldn't enjoy a second of it nor would i ever do it.

But lesbians aren't, right? Lesbians are totally cool.

 

[alittlepepper]

They're doing this crap for attention. Ignore them and it'll piss them off worse than anything else you could do.

i like the way you think

 

[Dan Steele]

use fire arms with rubber bullets and aim for there signs. Nobody got hurt and they lost hundreds in signs. they were blown to pieces on the ground

 

[darthotaku]

I think I'm going to start a religion that preaches complete tolerance and understanding of everything, and when the Westborough church starts trolling my people we shall turn the Flame War into a Crusade.
A Burning Crusade if you will. (<--- WoW refference)

 

[gigastar]

Times like this i wish i had magic powers for the purpose of humiliating people like that.

And when i say humiliate i mean clothing damage [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ClothingDamage].

I really hope they get what's coming to them. Not death or anything, but they deserve something.

Anon did take down thier sites a while back after a WBC rep repeatedly insulted an Anon rep during a live interview.

Obviously this has subsided now.

Perhaps someone will find grounds on which to sue them. It could happen the way they keep going.

I was thinking more like terms in prison. They haven't done anything illegal yet, but they're abusing freedom of speech to stupid levels that should be illegal.

As far as wikipedia goes theyre already banned from protesting within 300 feet of most funeral sites in America, except in thier home region where its 500 feet.

Theyve also been taken to supreme court several times over the years.

Theyre also banned from entering the United Kingdom. Which i consider a great thing because i live there.

Also, you're evil for linking to TvTropes when I'm studying for exams.

Evil is what i do. And if they keep this up im going to form an outspoken Aethiest group in a neighbouring town of the WBC.

that sounds pretty gay.. sorry

-_- duh

 

[DevilWolf47]

They're dumb motherfuckers who take their cues from a man who has made it abundantly clear that he is either a violently repressed homosexual or batshit insane, protests with vague or idiotic motivations are par for the course.

How can you preach tolerance and understanding then go on flamewar crusades?

Counter-trolling would be different, because the flames then would flow from one side only.

Disgusting? Its two people kissing. And the enjoyment comes from spiting a bunch of racist, homophobic and xenophobic twats. That's, y'know, the joke of what he was saying.

You're not exactly drawing yourself any favourable comparisons right now considering you're in a thread about the WBC.

You don't even have to do that - they banish members (their own family members) for taking too much interest in the opposite sex. Just start getting off with a girl in front of them and it'll do the trick. Mind you, they seem to thrive on the idea of everyone going to hell, so maybe its better to think of something else.

Haha, I guess, I was just pointing it out. Although from looking at the website, it seems a gay Catholic priest getting off with a Jew (both male of course) would be an even deadlier combination.

But my point was, they rejoice in the idea of other people going to hell because they're "sinning" - they do all this picketing shit because they think they're doing people a favour.
