They are free to believe all the crazy things that they do. They are not any different than most fundamentalist Christians in belief, but vary in action. They actually act on their beliefs vs. most fundamentalists who just fret about them amoungst themselves.
That being said, if my son was being buried and these folks were picketing, I would run the funeral procession through their little protest at 60 MPH.
I don't think I would be able to control my emotions, with 'Christians' yelling that my kid was headed for hell as I was placing him in the ground. Their would be another violent act taking place.
Sad, but I believe that death and burial are family matters, and are not places for public displays or events. The same applies to 'journalists' filming.

It's an organization based off of hatefullness. The memebers and leaders hate anything and everything - even if it agrees with their views. They're using a religion to offend the masses.

I think we all need to get together, and send e-mails or a petition to all the media outlets, (NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, etc.) and request that the media agree to a voluntary blackout on those jerks. They're getting unbelievable amounts of publicity, and they aren't deserving of it. They're even having documentaries on them in EUROPE! I think if they aren't given the attention they crave, maybe they'll disappear.

I think we should call Al Queda and tell them they been saying bad things about Islam.Then there would be terrorists and wastes of life there and we could solve the problem all at once.

There are very few people who agree with Westboro. I think they are greatly misled and pretty much crazy.

They are a cult of hate. They are teaching their kids hate. I don't advocate violence, but I"d love to see them get the pants sued off of them. Knocked down a few pegs and those kids rescued.
