Ulterior motives charge these robots.
We can't let these douchebag scam artist faux solicitors get the best of the current community.
I guarantee they have made no money, yet post endlessly.
Certain trolls that used to frequent the pages of current have been around less and less as these bots were appearing. Some flat out disappeared before the bots.
Did these trolls find something constructive to do with their time?

I have been using their contact addresses for everything that I know will generate spam but to any hackers that need a project, we would be very grateful if you taught them a lesson. I also sent a bunch of e-mails complaining about the spamming to the contacts and requested that they stop it. Bailey78 has also done this. We have yet to receive a response.

Kudos to anyone who stands up to these people. But they really need to be beaten in court. That is their end game.
And shame on the person who wrote this article. Blaming Liberals for letting this kind of Christian Hate Speech go on, then calling Atheist dumb because they use WBC as an example of American religion gone wrong.
Only a Christian Conservative could look at Westboro Baptist Churh and conclude the problem is those darn Liberal Atheist.

I figure I would calmly explain to them all, that if they didn't stop, I would proceed to pepper-spray them in the eyes. I would then pepper-spray them in the eyes, not out of hate, but out of necessity and respect.

Reality Check : yet they have literally harmed no one.....(For Comment 1) they have harmed a lot of things not physically (well sometimes) but they are A : Endangering the Kids and youth they bring to these pickets. (They could get fined or arrested for that) especially with the strict Child Endangerment laws now a days. (Comment 2) - Sometimes words are louder then violence if violence was the case it could be like a riot in most places where the WBC would get stomped on by people that are caught up in the moment.
IF i could go up and smack 1 upside the head i would. Yeah let them come to chicago and see how non-effective there pickets will be. Violence does not result to anything i think that everyone has there own right to free speech and i am gay i actually find the WBC church sort of humorous they got some interesting designs for there signs. I think that they can protest gay people all day long but when it comes to fallen military and funerals they are crossing a line that does not need to be crossed.

I agree that they should exercise their right to protest, but I don't support them for the simple fact that they aren't being real.
All they are doing is bringing misery to people. They aren't fighting for the greater good, they are fighting a lost cause to convert modern day America into a twisted so-called Christian society.
What they are doing isn't right, and as much as I would like to stab each and every one of them in the face, I can't. And I wouldn't.
I am proud of those who peacefully push them back and try to get on with their own lives and mourn in peace. - 1 year ago

They have received death threats, receive insults and violence from vile counter-protesters and have had a bomb attack at their home.
Yet the only thing they do is hold signs and tell people to repent or they're going to hell.
I don't share their beliefs but I fully support them.

GODDAMNIT STOP COUNTER PROTESTING.
SERIOUSLY. These people would not get nearly the attention they do if at every rally they did they didn't get counterprotests 20 to 30 times larger than their actual protest. Only when these counter protests happen does the media come because people make an actual event out of it. I agree that they are sick and twisted in every sense of the word but seriously all counter-protesting is doing feeding the sick machine WBC runs. Fight their ignorance with ignorance of them. Ignore them.

Well, I'm sure the family of the dead soldier appreciated not having to see these dumb asses or hear their hate propaganda while trying to bury their family member, so good for them for showing up. I don't think you could qualify this as a counter-protest, more like a group of people shielding the grieving family from what would have been salt in an open wound.

I understand the temptation to "ignore" them. Sadly, it's easier said than done though when they are protesting the funeral of your son, daughter, or friend. They protested the funeral of a friend of mine who died in a fire, because she lived with her boyfriend. That is fucked up and I won't ignore it.
That being said, I live 10 minutes from this town. the Weston Mo "anti-protest" wasn't a protest at all. There was no yelling, no debate. The reason for that was the organized flooding of the town with people. There was no place for Fred and his merry band of crazies to park their cars, much less protest. They were literally, physically, shut off from the town.

OK, I should have amended my case for the funerals. It is acceptable to create a shield, peacefully and quietly, for the sake of the family. I understand that. I was just speaking from one WBC counter-protest I went to in San Francisco, where it was basically just a giant party around the WBC folks - drawing in media, more attention etc.

You have a good point, but there is a flipside. I went to the counter protest, I made a fun sign I got dressed up, I went I met new people and had a blast. There was so much hate across the street from us, but on our side of the street there was love and peace. We all had a fabulous time, even chased them down the road singing "na na na hey hey goodbye" doesnt type well anyways that song by the beatles. I think more was done against hate that day in my community than for it.
