There is nothing else you can do to these vile people.

Thank you, sirs, for your service to our nation

The antigay Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan., routinely disrupts military funerals, holding bright-colored signs that read "God Hates Fags" and "God Hates America."

The presence of the Patriot Guard, however, seems to deter such intrusions. At the funeral of Merced, Calif., Army Pfc. Lukas Hopper last Saturday, the Patriot Guard Riders were there at the Hopper family's request — and the protesters were nowhere to be seen.

In solemn silence, the slightly grisly veterans stood in rigid formation bearing American and Army flags. They joined the 45-minute procession from Merced to Catheys Valley Cemetery.

Their flags, their bikes and most of all their daunting presence was the first thing a passerby may have noticed. By mourners, they were probably hardly noticed at all.

Born out of protests that threatened to disrupt the 2005 funeral of 19-year-old Carrie French, and later that summer, the funeral of Edward Myers, both killed in Iraq, the Patriot Guard Riders banded together to ensure that fallen heroes are honored with respect and dignity.

Since its formation, the Patriot Guard Riders has grown into a national organization with a membership of more than 170,000, including members in Merced and Mariposa counties.

The ugliness of hate and ignorance

Exposed:
Roger Stone has decided calling Hillary Clinton a cunt is hilarious. This exposes him as a misogynistic homophobic deeply closeted Neanderthal. Don't believe me?

Take a look at his picture. There's something really really wrong with the guy.

And speaking of brain rot:
Topeka, KS (CNS) - One religious group took Brokeback Mountain personally. Reverend Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church has reportedly been urging people to "picket" recently deceased actor Heath Ledger's funeral because of his participation in the film Brokeback Mountain.

The church group apparently feels no compassion for the actor for playing a "fag" in the movie. The multi-awarded 2005 drama film is a story about two men's sexual relationship with each other in the American West.

"Yes! WBC will picket this pervert's funeral, in religious protest and warning," a flyer, which reportedly is being passed around, reads. It then goes on to include bible verses and claims "God Hates Fags! & Fag-Enablers!"

The leaflet concludes with "Heath Ledger is now in Hell, and has begun serving his eternal sentence there - beside which, nothing else about Heath Ledger is relevant or consequential."
Wingnuts, Republicans, haters, and warmongers. They all deserve each other.

The most hated family in America

Tread carefully if you are easily offended. Via Pam's House Blend, this video is one of seven made by a British journalist on the bizarre Fred Phelps family and their one family Westboro Baptist Church:



I confess I couldn't handle much of it, but the bravery of the journalist trying to make sense of this perversion is stunning! Has anyone ever checked the lead content of the Phelps' water supply?


Update 4/5: Realized I didn't link to the other six videos available: here.
