Westboro Baptist and Memorial Day

Ignoring them is the best bet. When lunatics are on campus, i walk right on by and dont even give them the time of day.

If they were to come to a family members funeral this might change, but for now i just ignore them.

This.

If people and media would ignore them and not acknowledge their efforts, they might just get the hint. If not, then a few size 9 and size 10 boots might do the trick

Considering how many truly crazy people there are in this country, why hasn't some nutjob taken out Fred Phelps Osama style? This guy seriously needs to die & his cult needs to be dismantled.

Bc that is murder and murder is wrong. He is using his freedom of speech. Im not saying what he is doing is not wrong, bc it is, but it is legal. He will die when he dies, but just like Al Qaeda will keep going without Osama, Westboro will keep going without Phelps. Easiest way to rid the world of them is to ignore them and stop giving them so much attention/press.

Mmm, very good sentiments, Po, agree completely!

Well, it's not "wrong" to kill people when enganged in war-and as far as I'm concerned, when these morons show to protest at funerals, they've declared war on those who are burying a family member or friend.

Not comparable and not the answer IMO. Lots of different people in the world, and lots where those morons came from. Have to deal with them; no other choice. And I don't mean deal in a Corleone kinda way

They won't get the hint though and won't be ignored though. These people, like many, many protesters of different kinds, are professional attention getters. At least they are brazen and upfront about it, I guess.
