If I lived in Kansas I would throw a keg party across the street from Fred Phelps funeral. That would be awesome.

Jezzica,

Has anyone tried picketing the picketers? Perhaps take gay porn pictures and put a cut out of Mr. Phelp's face in place of the pornstar's face? Posters (properly censored/blurred) of Mr. Phelp's receiving a gay golden shower perhaps? Might not accomplish anything, but might be fun. _________________ "I love and treasure individuals as I meet them; I loathe and despise the groups they identify with and belong to" -George Carlin

Surely a celebrity's funeral would be more closely watched and protected than the average soldier's.

You know they do this for attention? So would people please STOP FEEDING THE FUCKING TROLLS. Don't click on their links. Don't respond. Don't even look at them.
If nobody pays any attention to them maybe they'll just kill themselves out of frustration and the world can be a slightly better place. _________________ Kindly stick your Quran/Bible/Torah up your holier-than-thou arsehole you square. |

Sounds good to me.
Seriously though, wasn't some law against picketing funerals passed in direct reaction to Phelps and his clan's fucked up ways? _________________ Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. |

I think they established a "bubble" and they got their asses sued off for over a million dollars. I haven't heard yet if they have to pay it or not. _________________ Join http://www.sefora.org/

afaik no. they just have to be 150feet away. As long as they are 150feet away... they can do what they want.
Now in Canada... if a group of people want to picket a funeral... they have every right to do so... the moment they start calling for genocide of or partial genocide of a group... they are illegal. _________________ A cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his fleshand drink his blood; while telepathically tell him you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.

In theory thats a good idea, but will it work? Their whole shtick is to be such a nuisance that they CAN'T be ignored. If they're screaming and yelling, using a megaphone or noisemakers, how do you just block it out? Or are there already rules about noise? I'm aware they have to keep a certain distance away but its not that far, is it?
As for clicking on their links, clicking or not clicking, how does that affect anything? Don't respond and don't look at them... yeah, thats what I would do. But as I just said, I don't think they'd go away even if not one single person looked in their direction.
With your standard troll, yeah, just ignore them long enough and they go away. These Westboro folks strike me as super-ultra-mega trolls. I'm just not sure conventional tactics will do a damn thing.
I hope I'm wrong... _________________ "I love and treasure individuals as I meet them; I loathe and despise the groups they identify with and belong to" -George Carlin

Your idea does sound fun. I am surprised that more people haven't united to have "fun" at them. Michael Moore shut them down twice with a very "fun" idea. For those who haven't seen the video (even if you have, it is fun all over after a couple of years) watch this. http://www.glumbert.com/media/moore
Jezzica, all of us are FAGS according to Phelps if we accept or approve of homosexuality even if we ourselves aren't gay. So the actor would be a FAG under that umbrella because he acted the role of one. |

All southern atheists within a few hours of Kansas, I say we gather to picket Freddie's funeral when he finally kicks it - it can't be too far away.
