The Fred Phelps World Tour

[Guest Vitamin X]

This has been going on for a while, really, but I thought it'd be fun to come up with this thread so anyone can see these pricks live:

And he's coming to my school next Monday, as well as protesting the Swedish and German consulate!

 

Portland State University - God Hates Fag Enablers SW Market St & SW 13th Ave You know this so-called institution of higher-learning has a Queer (I thought they did not like being called that) Resource Center and they include fags in their affirmative action policy and nondiscrimination policy and that (wait for it) they have gender neutral bathrooms? Alrighty then! Well that will make those rapes and other forms of sexual assaults so much more convenient! In any event, we will be in the neighborhood and will be sure to picket your stinky bottoms. We have a message from the King of all knowledge, just for you: Ecclesiastes 12:8 ¶ Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity. 9 And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs. 10 The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth. 11 The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd. 12 And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. 13 ¶ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. AMEN!

 

So, how should I fuck with these guys.

I can't wait for all the moral outrage posts about Phelps, and then people saying how they want to kick his ass. Good times await

[Guest Vitamin X]

It's been a while since we've had a Phelps thread that wasn't related to the swimmer.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

Seeing as how it's hunting season, (at least around here) You can pick up bottles of deer piss, skunk scent, and all kinds of other human scent masks. These are extremely potent.

[Atticus Chaos]

Isn't attention what they want, though? Wouldn't people just be better ignoring them?

[Jingus]

So, how should I fuck with these guys.

 

EDIT: for law enforcement purposes, that is not an actual death threat, just a lazy joke.

[Lord of The Curry]

Buy a bunch of gay porn mags, make yourself a vest/jacket out of the pictures inside and wear it to said rally. Downside is if one of these nuts decides to get physical with you over the gheyness you might have to throw some bows.

 

Edit: Just realized how difficult the contstruction might be so buy a cheap white t-shirt and just glue the pictures to it.

[SamoaRowe]

They're going to be hitting Manchester, NH on December 12th, only half an hour away from my apartment. I've considered ways to fuck with them, but I think the best solution in the end is to simply ignore them. How do you think they'd feel if people didn't react to their public performances? They feed on the anger they generate.

 

I say it's time to make these ass clowns irrelevent.

[haws bah gawd]

Many many months ago, someone posted a link to a video documentary by what I think was BBC about the God Hates Fags group. It was extremely interesting. Anyone still have the link?

[SamoaRowe]

I remember that video. It got taken down from youtube for copyright violations. It was called something along the lines of "America's Most Hated Family." It was extremely interesting, I recall seeing it available on Amazon at some point, it's worth watching.

[Dobbs 3K]

I wonder what they think about the parts of the Bible where Jesus talks about forgiving people like crooks and prostitutes.

[Guest Smues]

Despite Sarah Palin's best efforts apparantly god hates Alaska too:

 

University of AK/Lee Salisbury Theatre - God Hates Matt & AK 311 Tanana Drive Just because you are most days really cold in Alaska, and just because your lying little prophetess Palin lies to you all day, every day - know this fact: There is a hell. Matthew Sheperd is there, all your lies to the contrary. Check it out from the mouth of the Lord Jesus Christ: Mt 5:29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Mt 18:9 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. Mr 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: Matt's in hell, and you will shortly join him. AMEN!

I read that as 'he gave good head'. Honest.

 

[At Home]

Unlikely. We're talking about the God Hates Fags folk. They've never thrown a punch in their entire life. Not to say they're pacifists, though.

[Jingus]

They do live in a little fortified compound to keep away possible security risks.

[Guest]

Did they raise Jim Jones from the dead?

[Guest]

D-

 

That was a terrible line.

[CBright7831]

He's already been to TN. He protested at the highschool where four cheereaders died in a horriffic car accident and said that everyone in the state will rot in hell. I dont know what the hell we did wrong, but we're all going to hell because Fred Phelps said so.

 

[Gary Floyd]

Did they raise Jim Jones from the dead?

"I ain't dead nigga"

 

[SuperJerk]

I'm sure this has been said, but it is only a matter of time before it is revealed that Fred Phelps is, himself, gay.

[EVIL~! alkeiper]

Isn't attention what they want, though? Wouldn't people just be better ignoring them?

This. When people spout drivel and filth, they simply are not worth my time.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

See, I think they'd be interesting to talk to.

[Edwin MacPhisto]

I'd like to talk to them about sports, or lasagna recipes. See if anything like "sausage is the meat of queers" comes up in casual chat.

[Toxxic]

He's already been to TN. He protested at the highschool where four cheereaders died in a horriffic car accident and said that everyone in the state will rot in hell. I dont know what the hell we did wrong, but we're all going to hell because Fred Phelps said so.

 

 

The whole state? That's impressive. Does he admit any possibility that anyone in the state might not? Like, that there may somewhere be a small group of people who share his (repugnant) views and are doing 'The Lord's Work'? I mean, I'd really like to see the TN branch of God Hates Fags getting all uppity because Phelps says they're going to hell just because they live in a certain area.

 

Seriously though. I can understand him saying the lawmakers will rot in hell because they don't allow gays to be stoned to death or something, or that the populace in general are sinners because they voted those people in, but just putting a blanket To Hell over everyone in the state, whether they share his views or not, just doesn't make sense.

 

OK, I know Phelps doesn't make sense at all. But that's just, WAY out there.

 

Also, I agree with Edwin. How many conversational topics do they have that doesn't revert to gays?

[EL BRUJ0]

So, how should I fuck with these guys.

[Big Ol' Smitty]

That was good, but he should have been a little more obnoxious about it.

[SuperJerk]

 

Ricky Gervais seems to be dancing to Rick Astley.

[PILLS! PILLS! PILLS!]

I was going to "this" this before Al did, but I figured that this thread would die before said thising were necessary.

 

Seriously, the WBC is for the ignoring.

[Guest Vitamin X]

All in all, it was pretty uneventful aside from a gentleman here in Portland with a master's in theology peacefully (!) engaging in discussion with what looked like Phelps' granddaughter or her friend:

 

In addition to that, my school had a peaceful counter-protest.. but with free coffee and cupcakes!

[Guest Czecherbear]

"And so he's like waiting outside for his pizza and then these dudes came outta fucking nowhere and just started punching this guy in the chest RIGHT HERE LIKE THIS and man it was some fucked up shit."
