God, apparently, hates Ireland!

Doctor DooM

Seriously funny stuff, from the people who brought you "god hates fags", and appeared on a Louis Theroux documentary recently:

Denial of Service attacks too good for 'em

AlmightyCushion

Yeah we had this a while ago. Still funny though. The flag in the banner is actually wrong too. Shows how smart this guy is.

Doctor DooM

Oops sorry... Its brilliant. I feel sorry for the children of this family though. Poor kids are deeply under their parents thumbs, there was one piece of footage showing them asking their parents if it was ok to go out and get a cup of coffee with friends- at age 18.

Now that is just plain stupid.

Wow, this link is refreshingly new and fantastic. I really don't think I've ever seen this before, and there has certainly never ever been a thread on After Hours about this before. Wow!

Doctor DooM

Well they are taught not to go against gods word, quite literally, and God says honour your father and mother...

Wertz

Any of you see Keith Allen doing a docu on the Phelps's a few weeks back? Funny stuff.

Love when the media interview the wife too, especially FOXnews...boy that's some good cat fightin'.
If any of that lot turned up at a funeral of one of mine, I'd make sure they didn't leave the graveyard...

Saw this the last time it was posted in here.

Someone should email them and let them know they have the flag backwards. Although they could be placing it backwards on purpose but seeing how wholly ignorant they are probably not. Someone should also point out that the Church of Ireland is Protestant. I'm amused by the whole thing but not so much on the 'Thank God for Potato Famines' at the bottom.

Doctor DooM

They thrive on attention. Worst thing you can do to people like this is to ignore them, and let them know you are.

Mossy Monk

Louis Theroux and Keith Allen did great programs on this family of idiots.

Mahatma coat

nice to see that they've updated the site,

some of them have some fairly decent flagdancin moves.

I think the 'Reverend' may hold a candle for Senator Norris

Doctor DooM

They are nothing if not efficient! It'd be funny if they showed in Ireland.

zuutroy

Link won't work, but if they've got the flag backwards, maybe God hate the Ivory Coast and its all a big mix up?

DarkJager

Posting links to the site is only going to give them the impression that anybody gives a single flying 747 **** about them. Hopefully, they will all eventually die in the most horrific way possible. They don't deserve any less than a slow and painful death.

They put the flag upside down (which on a tricolour will look the same as backwards) because it is apparently seen as a distress signal. They do the same with the US flag when they show up at whatever they're protesting every week.

Call me crazy, but an upside down tricolour will look the same as a right side up one?

Hence putting it backwards instead.

Who's taking bets the pater familia took a delivery at the trademan's entrance from a GI during his formative years? Hence his concern about gays in the military.

Depends how you do it I suppose

If you rotate it 180 degrees it'll look backwards. If you flip it over it'll look the same.

That only works for the British union flag, any other flag in the world it's just wrong. Great for cheapskates as they can get two flags for the price of one.

He's a seriously angry dude. Does seem like frustration to me.

There are a few related videos to the side. Some of them are quite funny.

Here's the Keith Allen one.

I see someone's registered "godhatesthephelps.com"...now there's a site with a lot of potential...

And godhateswbc.com

His whole argument re Ireland seems to be based on a film.

ejmaztec

So, basically, Phelps has a complex about all things anal, which probabaly means that he was born without a rectum and just spouts sh1t through his mouth 24/7.

Will there be a godhates*************? Strong possibility.

Nailz

I seen this 2 months ago, but they've updated it now.... SHOCKIN'! But now they're attacking David Norris! :eek: Bastards! :mad: Norris is a legend! If you ever see these fúckers... I hope you know how to mad patrol bombs...

Huge fine for anti-gay US church

The church's pickets of military funerals have outraged Americans
A church whose members cheered a soldier's death as "punishment" for US tolerance of homosexuality has been told to pay $10.9m (£5.2m) in damages.
The Westboro Baptist Church was taken to court by the father of Lance Cpl Matthew Snyder, a marine who died serving in Iraq in March 2006.

The church cited its constitutional right to free speech in its defence.

But Albert Snyder's lawyer urged the jury to ensure the damages were high enough to stop the church campaigning.

Members of the church - based in Topeka, Kansas - have denounced homosexuality for years, initially targeting the funerals of Aids victims.

But they later extended their pickets to the funerals of soldiers, who they say are being punished by God because of the US' tolerance of homosexuality .

Last year they caused outrage when they attended the funeral of Matthew Snyder with signs reading "Thank God for dead soldiers" and "You're going to hell".

On Wednesday, the jury ordered the church and three of its leaders to pay $2.9m in compensatory damages, and an additional $8m for invasion of privacy and for causing emotional distress.

Albert Snyder's attorney, Craig Trebilcock, had urged jurors to agree an amount "that says 'Don't do this' in Maryland again. Do not bring your circus of hate to Maryland again".

Defence attorney Jonathan Katz's argument that the $2.9m in compensatory damages already far exceeded the defendants' net worth and would be enough to "bankrupt them and financially destroy them" was ignored.

The church, which is unaffiliated with any major denomination, is headed by Fred Phelps. Most of its 70-odd members belong to his extended family.

Appeal

Albert Snyder sobbed when he heard the verdict.

"I hope it's enough to deter them from doing this to other families. It was not about the money. It was about getting them to stop," he said, according to Reuters news agency.

Members of the church, however, reportedly greeted the verdict with tight-lipped smiles.

"It will take the 4th Circuit of Appeals a few minutes to reverse this silly thing," said Rev Phelps.

Daughter Shirley Phelps-Roper - co-defendant along with another daughter, Rebecca Phelps-Davis - called the verdict a blow against free speech and vowed to continue picketing military funerals.

I wonder how deep their pockets are?

Outer Bongolia

Love for somebody to take a photo of a few Irish Guys burning his picture and waving God Hates Phelps signs.. It would be great to send that to him and rile him up again; it's funny when dumbasses get angry, Also, there's nothing that would annoy him more than "Phelps is a fag" signs.. I don't think he would like that one bit

Doctor DooM

I am very glad of the fine placed on these people.

Seriously for a moment, this military thing is a simple publicity stunt at the expense of some grieving people who deserve nothing but peace.

But yeah, a dog hates phelps campaign would be funny. Isn't there a vid somewhere of a man coming on to him at one of these protests?

Outer Bongolia

I wonder if they will ever cough up any of the money

Terry

America is a big place.
I would imagine they would have no problem obtaining some charitable donations towards this fine.

I dunno, these people are exceptionally bigoted and isolated. There's no-one with views as extreme as them to give them cash, even the millions of fairly radical right wing bible-thumpers will distance themselves a bit from these outright nutters.

This fine is a great thing. F*ck them and their tarnishing of the right to free speech.
