fireclown: Nothing. The answer is nothing.

I used to counter protest these guys with the PGR a few years back. I'm pretty sure they're doing some kind of performance art or something. Ignore them. They'll go away. Don't Feed The Trolls.


Dont counter protest. Thats silly. They dont believe any of what they say or whats on thier signs.

They are there fot the lawsuit potential.

Use them to raise money for charity. Use the negative attetion, turn it into positive gain for groups that need it.

"You're going to see some bright and colorful signs, being held in the hands of some sincere, really the only sincere humans in this nation," Hockenbarger told TODAY'S TMJ4 reporter Tom Murray.

Wow, hubris so think you could pave the road to hell with it.

Chris Krasovich wants to send a different message. She is using Facebook to organize a counter-protest.
"I think doing nothing is a mistake," Krasovich said. "I think we have a real opportunity to come out and express what we as people of faith, as people who are members of the Milwaukee community hold dear."


You're making the same mistake as them. You are thinking anyone gives a crap what you hold dear.

doubled99: Hold up a sign saying God hates Gays and pretend to be one of them.
Then rob a bank, shoot someone, or molest a child.
The resulting scandal will destroy their credibility.


Use fake bullets for God's sake- you don't have to actually kill anyone. The best scenario is to pretend to be one of them, arrange for a friend to come along with a pro-gay sign, shoot him with a blank bullet, have your friend use a squib for fake blood effect and have him fall to the ground screaming.

///That'll show 'em

You may notice that people who

want to tell you about their faiths

very rarely want to hear about your own.

Sgt. Expendable: Quit giving them exactly what they want.

Setup a little stand near them, no obtrusive signs, no yelling, nothing even remotely confrontational. Just a sheet that says "Please Donate." When people ask, tell them you are collecting donations for LGBT groups, all money collected will be donated in the name of "Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptist Church"

Arrange to have any thank you notes from the charities sent to WBC. If the people they hate are benefiting from their actions, they'll have to rethink their business.


Outstanding idea! Beat them at their own stupid game.

Just in case anyone has forgotten, the WBC do this for a living. They literally try to provoke a hostile response so they can sue people, the city police and the city government. Some of them believe what they're saying, but most of them know why they're doing it, and it's not to save anybody.

They are scam artists, nothing more. Give them pity or give them nothing, but don't give them your anger. That's what they want.

I have always wanted to go to a big protest with a sign that says:

Yep! He discusses that counter-protest in a (really hilarious) special in which he answers a bunch of questions on Red State. It's on Netflix and is worth checking out.

Matthew 23:23-24

("Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the Law, justice and mercy and faith; these you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel!")

Hell, forget what I said, do this.


YA know, i kinda like this idea best... we should seriously set that up, if its legal, i can see something like this taking off. With a reliable system of poeplel showing up at these things for the donations WBC may rethink what they're doing seriously. They alrerady do part of the hard work, which is stating where they're gonna be, how hard is it to set up anything?

The WBC isn't even sincere. They seek to incite violence or some mistreatment, then sue for damages. They don't believe in a damn thing besides enriching themselves through confrontation.

All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." (Galatians 3:10)

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for us. (Galatians 3:13)

Gotta fight bible with bible.


http://biblethumpingliberal.com/2011/05/21/clobber-passage-romans-1/

Paul wrote Romans 1:18-2:1 to urge us to stop judging one another, but we manage to use it as the basis for judging people big time.. Here is Romans 2:1 in three translations:

Therefore, you have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. (NIV)

Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. (RSV)

Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. (KJV)

Whereas all human beings are idolaters, and
Whereas [most] human beings are fornicators, and
Whereas [a few] human beings are homosexuals, and
Whereas all human beings have a depraved mind,
Therefore, stop judging one another.

What you do is don't protest, but instead set up a table and collect donations that will go to a gay rights group. Let them know that you will be there as long as they will. I heard a story where it was tried once, and they left soon after the table was set up.

There was some from reason rally saying "God Hates Bags" and "God Hates Facts." And one other that said "Big invisible man in the sky? Seems legit." We had fun blasting those religious zealots while we were there.
