Westboro Baptist Church to picket Elizabeth Edwards Funeral!!!
These fucking idiots have shown so many times that they are out of control. How far do they have to go before they are stopped?

[link to www.cnn.com]

(CNN) -- Members of the Westboro Baptist Church, known for its radical stance against a myriad of issues including homosexuality and the war in Iraq, said Thursday it will picket Elizabeth Edwards' funeral in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Edwards, the estranged wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, died Tuesday after battling breast cancer.
According to the Church's press release, members of the Kansas-based congregation are planning to gather at 12:15 p.m. to rally against Edwards for issues relating to her personal life deemed offensive by the church.

Whaaaat? What a bunch of religious freak dopes! The time to
picket is long since gone, waiting until someone is dying
or dead is totally stupid.

Not sure, I tried to look at the press release on the Westboro website, but couldn't get it to open. Their site is VERY slow.

Here is part of their press release. Didn't want to break the 50/50 rule, so I didn't copy all of it:

"WBC will picket a respectful distance from the funeral of Elizabeth Edwards who split hell wide open on December 7, 2010. Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us? Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. (Isa. 14:9-11.) This witch spent her life in defiance and disobedience to God, and blasphemed Him with her dying breath. She received multiple warnings and opportunties to repent. After God smacked her by killing her son, she thought she'd show Him, pumping herself full of hormones to have more kids. God gave her two more children, and she despised them like she did the first two, raising them to believe God is a liar"

Stopped? from what, using their first amendment right to free speech? Don't be an idiot. Of course these people are abrasive and unChristian-like in their actions, but the minute you start trying to control what people do and say is the minute tyranny ensues. There is, then, no limit to what can be "stopped," as you put it.

As one poster above put it, "get over it."

sp they are picking a funeral because the dead woman used ivf?
wow.
also:how do they know she raised them to believe god is a liar?
and anyway, what business is it of theirs?
why do so many christians forget the part about: judge not, lest ye be judged.....which basically means mind your own business, and have compassion for those going through trails and tribulations.
