The way I see it with the WBC, if they protest your funeral, you did something right in life. I hope they protest my funeral.
Panzer89
Daily reminder that outside of the Phelps family, WBC protesters are all professional trolls hoping someone will hit then so they can sue.

You go Florida Man.
Tardiswho4
Wetsboro Baptist Church is literally a cult...
GroundUpMoonRocksArePurePoison
NOT SAYING ANYONE SHOULD. But I'm surprised people haven't shot up the WBC house. They certainly have many enemies.
MyCatLikesToFruitcake
Haha wasted gas money!
AnythingMuchShorter
For a bunch of gay people they sure fucked those cunts.
AnythingMuchShorter
*I'm aware some gay people are lesbians and thus would normally enjoy vaginas. I decided to go for it anyway.
sneakycommie
america has a gun problem and the WBC. why can't two wrongs make a right for once.
spicysenor
It's really great that the WBC is allowed to protest. And everyone is allowed to come together to make it futile. Freedom!
FlackJacketSnackCracker
God that's so disgusting. I can't believe people still use pirate language on Facebook.
ThatGuyWhoThinksEveryoneIsAPineapple
Arrrrr! Where's me grog?!
Papakeecha
WBC is like 60 people..... Out of 350,000,000 Americans why the fuck do you gives these idiots attention.
kayakhero
An update for everyone that has seen posts about the protest, Orlando completely shut the WBC out with help from the not-so-crazy residents
CyoCyo
Did Westboro find anyone to sue this time?
inkbone
As far as I'm aware, no. I'm apart of the human chain link groups and there was no word of anyone getting out of hand! Proud of my city! :)
Beepity
When even *Florida* finds enough non-crazies to block them out...
andonRT
Or, well, enough of the right kind of crazy.
BangBangLuckyLuke
It truly shocks me that a group with less than 50 members, all related by blood and/or marriage, can generate so much media attention.
dinosaurhannah
I genuinely had no idea it was one family. I just assumed it was a massive group from the media reports. You learn something new everyday.
CherryEmpress
They're extremists who purposefully generate media attention to spread their vile "message". They're good at doing it.
Spartinlimit
Just want to let you guys know WBC does not represent real Christian beliefs.
gnargnar99
Religion of hate
Mcwhoobles
Honestly though, the westborough baptist church has united people better than any non hate group. Weird how that works
TheHuskee
As a strongly devout Christian excuse the language but fuck WBC. We are all not gay-hating bigots. Love is everywhere in everything.

Don't worry eventually they'll die out because they don't accept new members into their cult.
FeIineDisrespectFromBehind
I kind of wish someone would help them along with that tbh.

I knew I'd find this somewhere!
inquirerofquantumstuff
Currently they only have 40 members registered, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church
GreenLanternMD
...and half of them are the founder's family. So few people, so much press coverage.
ILikedTheirOldStuffBetter
Didn't know that. Good. I'm a little surprised they haven't already died out after the death of their hate mongering 'pastor'.
mstomm
Actually, Fred was kicked out before his death for suggesting less radical ways.
Eanikran
Too bad it can't be accelerated by way of flamethrower
Recovery25
Yeah the members are all part of one family. They aren't associated with any Baptist association so they aren't Baptists. They do it (1/?)
Recovery25
because they want to make people mad so they can make money off of the lawsuits when people attack them.
meanspiritedoldgit
WBC is just in it for the lawsuits. That is what they do, start shit and sue police for failing to protect them.
Postmoderngrey
The Patriot Guard bikers block the WBC on a pretty regular basis.
ImgurBannedMeWtf
worxharder
I have nothing but respect for those bikers. When I got back from Afghanistan the WBC was protesting. Couldn't hear anything the wbc yelled.
hmzzz
What happened to your hearing in afghanistan?
Zoltan912
my dad actually rides with the patriot guard, all the men there are very nice.
Makimakithefirst
The women on the other hand, wrecthed
Postmoderngrey
My dad rides with them too. Though not all of them are "nice", but well behaved at funerals, a few of the Hell's Angels joined around here.
Zombies8MyWife
The "freedom riders" when I was Army I participated in a soldiers funeral. Westboro protested against a guy that was 23, wife, 2 kids.
Zombies8MyWife
He died in Iraq from an IED. I was one of the flag folders. It took all the strength I had to keep my composure and discipline.
Zombies8MyWife
And not tell them to fuck off. 2 feet from me the spouse is crying. Kids are too young to even understand that daddy isn't coming home
Zombies8MyWife
Fuck the Westboro Baptist church. I hope they all die in a house fire
ifyoulightitiwillsmoke
I'm actually shocked that someone has not beaten at least one WBC member to death for crap like this.
Darkspire
Honestly, in this day and age, I am surprised nobody has shot the lot of them. Really pulling the tiger's tail.
Postmoderngrey
That's how they make their money. Rile people up, get their rights violated and sue everybody, several of them are/were lawyers.
PianoMan2112
When the WBC minister died, were there a bunch of revenge protests?
LearnedCoward
That's what they would have wanted. When he died, everyone just ignored it
BitterLiberalArtsStudent
I can't remember. I DO however remember the church having the gall to ask people to let them bury him in peace.
ThisIsMySavior
So I've watched a good few youtube vids, and I'm just wondering who they are burying? Seems to me that Orlando was another Sandyhook...Fake
KamenTenshi
WBC... you pissed off bikers and LGBT so much that they came together to spite you, they hate you more than they hate each other, poetic.

Why isn't the WBC kicked out yet? They aren't a religion, they're pretty much a terrorist group.
jrntn
They aren't breaking any laws. They're that annoying schoolyard bully who knows exactly how to play the teachers to stay out of trouble
TheRhetor
Rumor in KS is WBC incites aggression from people and then sues for assault in low court. Anyone heard this too?
SomeOldDude
Also, sues police for civil rights violations. Been successful, too. That's why it's so important for private citizens to shut them down.
Panzer89
It's true. Outside of the Phelps family, I highly doubt they are even Christian. They're just despicable people looking for a payday.

It's not a rumor. http://www.businessinsider.com/heres-how-the-reviled-westboro-baptist-church-makes-money-2015-6
StooperDave
thats how they get funding.
kayakhero
I haven't heard anything but I'll keep my ears open!
KingBifurious
It's not a rumor, they have their own team of lawyers, who are members. You can find a lot about it in a 30 minute google search.
NuclearWinter2
WBC just makes Christians look bad.
Copperdragon
WBC makes -humans- look bad.
NuclearWinter2
That's any idiotic group like WBC. Spreading hate like that don't solve anything.
OLIVEGARDENSBREADSTICKS
Why would they protest a FUNERAL? The WBC praises themselves for "correctly" being religious, but HELLO. COMMANDMENT 6, YOU WALNUTS.
delpharseven
They protest funerals of soldiers killed in combat. They do anything to get people to see their message of hate. And for that reason I 1/
delpharseven
will not say what their message of hate is. Suck it, WBC. 2/2
