Gay basher, serial wife and child beater, and nomnimee for a Truely Vicious Idiot Award (would that it were a Darwin) has broadened his horizons. Now this foul puddle of dysenteric feces and his congregation of similiar ilk is picketting the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq.
quote:
BOISE, Idaho -- A Kansas preacher and gay rights foe whose congregation is protesting military funerals around the country said he's coming to Idaho tomorrow to picket the memorial for an Idaho National Guard soldier killed in Iraq.
A flier on the Web site of Pastor Fred Phelps' Westboro Baptist Church claims God killed Cpl. Carrie French with an improvised explosive device in retaliation against the United States for a bombing at Phelps' church six years ago.
"We're coming," Phelps said yesterday.
Westboro Baptist either has protested or is planning protests of other public funerals of soldiers from Michigan, Alabama, Minnesota, Virginia and Colorado. A protest is planned for July 11 at Dover Air Force Base, the military base where war dead are transported before being sent on to their home states.
Further coherent words escape me...

Wow, that group actually did something good!  |

And vindictive. This was the same SOB who tried erecting a statue to a murdered gay man in his home town saying that he "entered Hell" for his homosexuality. |

For those not familiar with this stinking degenerate, here's a brief biography.
quote:
Fred Phelps is the leader of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, United States, which is best known for its web sites godhatesfags.com and godhatesamerica.com. Gay rights activists, as well as mainstream and some fundamentalist Christians, have denounced him as a producer of anti-gay propaganda and violence-inspiring hate speech.
Biography
Fred Phelps was born in November 13, 1929, in Meridian, Mississippi. Phelps founded Westboro Baptist Church in 1955. While running the church, Phelps also worked as an attorney defending the civil rights of African Americans being discriminated against in Kansas. Rev. Phelps alleges that his success resulted in animosity among the white legal establishment and his eventual disbarment by the Kansas Supreme Court for alleged ethical violations. (PDF file)
One unauthorized biography alleges that the year after being disbarred, he continued to practice law in Federal Court before he was finally disbarred from that in 1989 as well, also for ethical violations. His final disbarment resulted from a plea deal through which the Federal Court would stop their disbarment hearings against the rest of his family.
In 1994, a reporter working for Stauffer Communications , Inc., filed a lawsuit about ownership of a book he had been researching for them, which details the life and activities of Phelps. Because the text of the book was entered as Exhibit A, the text became a public document, free to be spread. An anti-Phelps group in Topeka acquired the text, and began distributing it (it was later digitized). A link to one source of the text of this book is included below.
The distributed text describes Phelps as a ferocious child-beater and wife-beater. Most of these claims are endorsed by two of Phelps' sons, but are denied by their other siblings, who are not estranged from Phelps and, though acknowledging that their mother was beaten extensively, they were not harmed to that extent.
It is said, and mentioned in this link, that Phelps no longer has any sort of theology. Rather, in these latter years, he is doing no more than fluffing his ego, using Scripture as a prop. I am inclined to think that's the case.
I do hope the son-of-a-bitch brings his act to North Carolina. The Southern Coalition of M/C, with a large percentage of veterans, not to mention a lot other vets, would be delighted to make him and his minions welcome.
