Foo Fighters turn tables on Westboro Church

[gabosaurus]

The Westboro Church turned out in force to protest a recent Kansas City concert by the Foo Fighters.
The Foos responded by driving by the protest in a truck, blaring loud music to drown out the protest. The song was, of course, "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley.
Yes, the WBC was Rick Rolled! :laugh:
Sorry guys... God Hates Trash.

Walk on water lately, Gabs? Crap like your post might make you feel superior, but solves nothing. I would be satisfied if they stopped picketing military funerals. No apology needed, no sackcloth and ashes, they just need to knock it off. If knocking it off gets them some veteran support, even better.

The difference is I have the ability to visit their church, let them know I support their underlying mission then talk to them about how picketing military funerals is counterproductive to the cause.

No... you don't visit them

You OSTRACIZE them. You marginalize them because their message is one of hate. It follows no Gospel of any Christian/Judaic Teaching. If you go in there and tell them you support their underlying mission you support the same things they do.

So congratulations... YOU SUPPORT HATE.

HATE OF THOSE WHO ARE LGBT
HATE OF ALL OTHER FAITHS
HATE OF OUR TROOP
HATE OF POPULAR CULTURE AND MUSIC

What do they love?? Certainly not Jesus and his Gospels.... Jesus never discriminated or hated another soul.

BUT YOU SUPPORT THEIR UNDERLYING MISSION..

But you yourself are driven by the same things...

You hate Gays/Lesbians/Bisexuals and Trans-Intersexed people
You hate other religions even though you have never taken the time to learn about them.
You hate people based on the color of their skin... you certainly have bandied the "N" word around enough to show you have no tolerence for African Americans

Yeah... you support their main and underlying mission...Hate everything that isn't White and fits neatly in their skewed little Westboro Baptist perspective..

You cant Cherry pick small pieces of what you like about them... You either dismiss them as racist out of hand or you are a supporter of their vitriol and their hatred.

"Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love."

Ephesians 4:2

You are neither humble, Gentle or Patient... and you certainly dont do anything out of Love.

That concept is as vacuous as a Black hole to you..

Now go attened a Westboro service... I amd sure they'd love to have you and you anti-christian views among them.

How's that working out for you? Have they stopped picketing military funerals? Your approach appears rather counterproductive. Do you want them to stop picketing military funerals or not? I'm results oriented; you're not.

It's called filtering out irrelevant information, a hallmark of effective problem-solving. It's hard work finding the 5% of your posts that are coherent. You should be grateful for my effort. I see you still haven't learned anything about belittling people's families. That's another difference between you and I. I support the success of this message board and you don't. I'm task-committed to not repelling new members.

You're in need of a better bucket list.
They've exiled members of their family (until then lifelong members of the church) who questioned their methods, i don't think they'll have much care for your thoughts on the matter.

Why just military funerals? Why not all funerals they picket or plan to picket? All you have mentioned is military funerals. Do you think it's okay for them to picket all but military funerals? I think they should stop picketing all funerals. It serves no purpose but to add to the pain of the loved ones of the deceased.


Bottom line, the religion of the Westboro Baptist Church is hate. Nothing else. Just hate. And maybe inbreeding...

Go ahead... Go support them.outside of the issue of the troops you agree with almost everything else they say... you'll fit right in..

You support yourself and your own misogynist, self-congratulatory ideas and thought processes.
WBC preaches hate. They will hate you if you ever show up. Because you are not one of them.

In 2011 there were about 40 members of the WBC.

The Southern Baptist Convention and the World Baptist Alliance have condemned and denounced the WBC.

In 1996 Phelps led a protest at theUnited States Holocaust Memorial Museum (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Holocaust_Memorial_Museum) in Washington, D.C., proclaiming:


"Whatever righteous cause theJewish (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism) victims of the 1930s–40s Nazi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi)Holocaust (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust) had (probably minuscule, compared to the Jewish Holocausts against Middle Passage (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Passage) Blacks, African Americans (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Americans) and Christians—including the bloody persecution of Westboro Baptist Church by Topeka Jews in the 1990s), has been drowned in sodomite semen. American taxpayers are financing this unholy monument to Jewish mendacity and greed and to filthy fag lust. Homosexuals and Jews dominated Nazi Germany (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Germany) ... The Jews now wander the earth despised, smitten with moral and spiritual blindness by a divine judicial stroke ... And God has smitten Jews with a certain unique madness ... Jews, thus perverted, out of all proportion to their numbers energize the militant sodomite agenda... Jews are the real Nazis."


WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH - INBRED AND CORN FED... LET THE HATE FLOW...

And Good old TAIL-WIND thinks they can be reasoned with.... Too Funny! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

All Chruch members are members of the Phelps Family.... And Tail-Wind isn't Family.

He can't just walk right in... Just misplaced bravado.... Basically the Church is a large home in a residential area...

Not true, having listened to a fantastic interview a few weeks ago with a former family and church member on Sam Harris's podcast while many of the family members are in the Church, there are also other families/individuals have joined. She estimates there are currently 70-80


Tailfins I would think you'd be greatly interested in listening to this: Leaving the Church: A Conversation with Megan Phelps-Roper (http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/leaving-the-church)

People have been telling you this for years, you know when you support the Muslims, the blacks, just a couple, but I do agree with you, these groups filled with hate could careless what your opinion is, you are different so they will hate you as well.

Are you for real? You actually walk in that place? Last I looked, pure hatred ain't in MY Bible.

Those people give us a bad name and the goofwads on the left use it. We need to get a few clues around here. I didn't serve for their freedom of speech. There's nothing but hate.

[Gunny]

YOu know what ... I'd rather have a motherfucker who can belt up, load up and rack a round in the chamber than a straight motherfucker like Bergdhal behind my back. I don't give a fuck what he does on his own time.

You're telling me that a marine who has made it through boot camp, infantry training school, probably jump school, HEEDS training and is just a general badass ain't worth shit because he's fucking gay? I think gay people are weird, but they're STILL people.

Maybe somebody ought to burn THAT church down instead of picking on Southern black Christians?

I've never experienced hate with blacks, Latinos or Muslims. Perhaps I have not met the radical ones yet.
I've eaten in restaurants in South Central Los Angeles and experienced no problems. I have been to Muslim services and gathering and experienced no problems.
Jeff, if you want to be accepted by others, leave your hatred and prejudices at home. Works every time.
