What part of what Christ taught do these people follow? Free speech does not demand that ears are forced to hear or eyes forced to see. The families have to be there to bury their family member, the Phelps do not have to be there to use their free speech rights. What about protecting the free expression of religious practices the families are supposed to be able to do that the Phelps are trying to stop? It is bad enough they are attacking the unselfish men and women who gave up their lives serving this country and the families right along with them but enough is enough. This video shows what they really are or are play acting for the publicity.
Westboro Baptist Church video you have to see
10/5/10: Pastor Fred Phelps and several members of the Westboro Baptist Church discuss their upcoming case before the Supreme Court, in which they'll be arguing for their right to picket at military funerals with the message that soldier deaths are divine punishment for America's tolerance of homosexuality.
Read a Q&A about the case with First Amendment expert Floyd Abrams.
K. Ryan Jones is the director of 'Fall From Grace,' the only feature-length documentary about the Westboro Baptist Church, which is available on DVD.
