Wow, that's impressive.

So someone on ye olde friends list made the passing comment wondering if Fred Phelps would protest at the funeral of Jerry Falwell.

Turns out, he just might. (Supposedly it says so on Phelps' website, but I don't have the fortitude to go anywhere near there.)

If that's true Phelps just made me sympathize with Jerry Falwell.

...Because Falwell loved the gay community?

Oh, wait. I was assuming that the Phelps clan had something resembling sanity. My mistake.

The only 'scheduled pickets' i see on the website is for soldier's funerals.

That man and his family and his 'church' are a blight on the face of the Earth.
*Gods*
Loathesome man.

Isn't it scary what Fred Phelps will make you have positive feelings for? That man is like...everyone and everything looks like they are bathed in heavenly light, next to his noxiousness.

Even Jerry doesn't deserve Fred Phelps.

Now if I had the car and the desire to fight rush hour traffic, I'd head to the Castro. Because seriously? I wanna see the Pro Tinky Wink signs.

It doesn't say that anywhere I can find.

Mind, I can only spend so long looking, but.

Well, that's good. I didn't like the guy, but nobody deserves Phelps at their funeral.

I don't care about Falwell, but his family doesn't deserve to have Phelps spreading his noxious ooze around them.

Especially at his funeral.

Why would Phelps unleash his unique brand of hateraide on Falwell anyway??? They both are/were bigoted hateful slimey excuses for human beings. The were on the same side.

Nope. Can't go that far.

someone posted this on another board, it's a news release from 2005 when Falwell was ill stating that Phelps' rabble would picket his funeral

You know Phelps protested my high school graduation because the schhol board let a transvestite graduate in a dress.
I guess it was a slow week for funerals that week. 'Cause you know those Phelpses love picking on a dead guy.
