Take your chill pill before watching this. I assure you, you will need it to keep your blood pressure down.

I couldn't watch the whole interview. They make me sick to my stomach. They make me ashamed to be a Baptist. That is NOT my church speaking.

dirtbiker, I cannot believe what I just watched. As much as I love America I cannot understand why these horrendous people are even given the time of day. The media should not show pictures of them, they should not film them and they should not let their words be aired. If we turn our backs on these nasty viscious bastards they will not have a platform (except the side of the road along with the roadkill where they belong) to spout their poison from.
May my God and everybody elses God smite the f*****rs down.
Here in the UK we recently had prosecutions of some unsavoury people who advocated death to other people. Can't the majority in your country get rid of this abscess?

I agree. No media attention - that's what they want. I saw a news story about them about a month ago. A bunch of bikers had decided that they weren't going to take it & they rode between the family car & the protestors so the family wouldn't have to see their vile signs.

... I think I going to be sick. :'( :'(

As someone mentioned, "God, please save me from your followers"

He is anthema to me. Let God judge him, nonetheless.

I haven't watched it and reading the responses here I don't think I want to. I don't know what was said there, but it'll probably make me sick and damage my health so I don't think I should.

"We have had alot of nutty people on this show" lol.... he tries to get her anyway.... :)
There seems to be people like her on either side.... We have them here to..not so extreme, but we got them here to. I would love to hear her and Bin Laden argue up there in heaven ( Oh I don't believe in hell... I think we''ll all end up in the same place :) )
-
I feel so sorry for that woman. If there is a G*d, a heaven and a hell, on judgement day will she ever be shocked when her G*d tells her she is going to hell for her beliefs. The prophet Jesus preached love, not hate.
On the other side, her G*d may be merciful because she has a mental illness.

Something like this is a real test of the teachings. It takes an almost physical effort not to hate these people. How they got so twisted and delusional is beyond me. All I know is that seeing this only reinforces my resolve to try to make this world a better place. And support people like the bikers who have organized to prevent them from getting their hate too close to those mourning their lost loved ones. Maybe their real purpose is to bring the rest of us together. I don't know. But won't she be stunned when her judgement day arrives? Sorry, I guess I can't be coherent after all. I'm done.

I'm with you Tom. I'd answer your question, at least in terms of my opinion, but it'd be too political and I'm not sure this is the place for it. ;)
I can't watch the clip. I already know all about him and he is a sick b@stard. Much like Flwrchild "people" like him strengthens my resolve. He is just a vile, twisted, evil, disgusting, reprehensible "person."
-
don't get me started on this guy.. UGH!
If you really wanna get upset.. look at this TV ad that ran by him.. "God Hates Fags"

The G'd i know of is not the one she believes! and she have no right to use him as an excuse

I live near Topeka. Everytime this man opens his mouth there are dozens of media people to talk to him. They won't stop reporting every word he speaks.
-
The first video has been removed by the user but the second one is still there. That Fred Phelps is disgusting. I was sent the documentary of Matthew Shepard a few months back and the way that Fred picketed the funeral was the lowest act.
-
The video has been "removed by the user." This is one solution to the Phelps infestation.
-
The televangelists I was studying say much the same things - Jimmy Swaggert, for one, who ought to be the last to throw around accusations given his record. This sort of stuff wouldn't be transmitted in the UK - i unfortunately it's part of the price the US pays for its right of free speech. Nevertheless, it's nauseating; the worst thing is the total certiainty of thesetypes that they know, they are right, they are the chosen ones, they're going ot be there at the right hand of God come Judgement Day and can speak on his behalf. It's a sort of mass delusion or megaomania but no less dangerous for all that.

WHILE WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP FREE SPEECH IN THIS COUNTRY ( AND i REALLY never WANT TO STOP FREE SPEECH FOR anyone), WE CAN EXPRESS OUR DISGUST WITH THE EXTREME RELIGIOUS RIGHT. ONE WAY IS WITH OUR VOTE. vOTE THE BASTARDS OUT OF OFFICE THAT PANDER TO THESE EXTREME RIGHT-WINGERS. mAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD LOUD AT THE VOTING BOOTH. FIND A GOOD AND PROPER CANDIDATE TO WORK FOR AND ENDORSE TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. LET THE FOOLS' OWN WORDS CONDEMN THEM.
