Yep that is FRED PHELPS and his crew. We have had to deal with his churches BS long enough. They also protest funerals of Soldiers that have died in Iraq. Recently (not sure which state) they protested a funeral and the family successfully sued them and received a multi million dollar judgement against them. However, the BS continues. Its unfortunate that these ***(*&(s get to protest the individuals that are defending their Freedom of Speach!

I don't care what branch of service you pick you are going to find jerks, morons and just plain stupid individuals that smear the rest of the good and loyal military members.

Jesus tells us in Luke 6:37, "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven."

Why do so many "so-called" Christians ignore the red letters in the Bible? From what I read, Jesus had a lot more disdain for people who condemn others than he did for fags, dikes and Marines.

As for the Marines, Jesus tells us in John 15:13 that "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

People like that turn more people away from God than the devil himself! And they call themselves Christians? :cry:

Humbly,

It is only a matter of time before some distraught father, grieving the loss of a son or daughter who honorably served their country, turns around and shoots one of these idiots.

I, for one, would pin a medal on the man if/when it happens...

These idiots were supposed to protest a soldier's funeral here in Roswell a couple weeks back. A couple of them showed up with their signs but when they saw the Honor Guard, which is a group of Veteran bikers that show up to protest these guys, they got back in their cars and left. Proud to report that the funeral went on undisturbed and a group of church members and the Honor Guard were there to salute the family with American flags and not "God hates fags" signs. These people really make my blood boil, claiming that God hates people, and this country. I don't agree with a lot of things that are going on right now, but if they think it sucks so bad, I'll pack their bags for them and take them to the airport for the first flight to (pick a destination). I even saw the leader of that group the other day on tv say that if Jesus were here he would be leading their rallies and holding their signs. Rediculous!
