Yep, that's the Phelps family.

Evil that doesn't think it is. Such is the nature of religious fundamentalism.

Interesting, that's Friday night's entertainment pencilled in then. I think I'll drive round there with my camera and grab a ring side seat.

If that Danish minister can be refused entry to the UK on inciting racial hatred grounds, ie. infringing his right to free speech, why can't these mentalists be denied entry or arrested once they start 'preaching?'

That's exactly what they are protesting against.

Good work.

Good. Rarely have I seen such hopelessly idiotic people as the members of the Westboro Baptist Church. If their views weren't so tragic they'd be absolutely hilarious.

I can't help thinking if we don't allow such demonstrations, however outrageous, we stop allowing freedom of speech.

"Westboro’s core belief is that God will punish the West for its acceptance of homosexuality" Has he put a time scale on that at all?

Well, given that the Romans were at it as youngsters, he's being a bit lazy about it all isn't he?! Not as if the lazy bugger's got much more to do up on his cloud! wink
