From the WBC:
"In 2006 when God killed 12 miners, we reminded you that God owns those mines! WBC scheduled a trip to Virginia and West Virginia for this week, April 8-11, 2010, and you brutes immediately started threatening us and blaspheming God. So God reached down and smacked one of those mines, killing 25 (and likely four more are dead). Now you moan and wallow in self-pity, and pour over the details of the dead rebels' lives, pretending they're heroes. We will join that public discussion and remind you - again: obey God or He will curse you! This whole nation is awash in rebellious sin and defiance of God, His standard, and His servants' faithful words. THEY DIED FOR YOUR SINS! "Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words," Jer. 19:15.

GOD HATES W.V.!THE DEAD MINERS ARE IN HELL!

These idiots ought not call themselves Baptists...
Heck! They have no right calling themselves Christians either! Followers of Christ they are NOT!

Example in the New Testament. What did Jesus do when He was around he saw the grief of people who lost a family member? He wept with them.
And then he raised him from the dead.
John 11: 17-44

Im willing to stake my next paycheck that somthing bad will happen if they picket at the miners funerals.  The couple miners i have met in my life were different then any other "kind" of ppl that i know.

Ever met someone that has somthing about them that just comanded respect? Not so much "im a badass" or "fear me" respect, but .... real herd to explain here. Kinda guys that would just chin up if you put a gun to their face or cave your skull in if you winked at their buddies wife.  I dont really know what im getting at here, but any protest at these funerals will have an UNequal and oposite reaction.

I hope they do go protest these miners funerals, I really do. Maybe the miners friends will then teach them to have some respect for grieving families. I would love to be there to watch the show. Phelps and his minions are not Christians, they are just a bunch of nuts. Its about time that someone gave them a beat down. West Virginia miners just might do it. You don't want to piss off coal miners.

Say they do go to the funerals to pickett, I have a feeling any beat down they recieve (and rightly deserve for thatmatter) will just embolden them even more, because that will make them martyrs.

What we need is a riot.  These assholes have gotten away with this sort of thing at soldiers funerals and other places because if you hit them, the law is on their side.  If 20 or 30 people hit them, it could be considered a riot and you could nail them for inciting it.  Well, it's just a thought, lol.

They're talking about coming to Maine to protest a high school play at a private high school in Portland, ME.  After reading this thread, I bet they'll be too busy trying to find a way out of the mine they're buried in.

Dodge 85 RC is the only one that kinda gets it.

They don't have a particular beef, and no I hope they don't get beat down.

Why? Because that is their job. To get hotheads fired up.

They go in trying to incite anger (and do a damn good job of pissin people off) for the sole purpose of suing their pants off.

So some angry coal miner gets a few punches in, and loses his house in the following lawsuit. Now he's locked up and his family has no place to stay.

Nope, I won't wish that on coal miners, gays, soldiers, or anyone else they try to instigate.

If no one paid attention to them, it would no longer be profitable, and they most definitely are motivated by profits/publicity, more so than genuine beliefs.

Phelps is your little brother that kept poking you, trying to get you to lash out, then he cries victim and watches as you pay the price.

ah but if 10+ people get into the fight its a riot and sure they will get fined but then the wbc guys go to jail for in sighting the riot... almost a full win win.

Yep, I believe you are correct.

Here is a quote from an article about it:

"Free speech issue
Not everyone is on Snyder's side, even if they find Westboro's protests loathsome.

They point to the undisputed facts of the case. Westboro contacted police before its protest, which was conducted in a designated area on public land - 1,000 feet from the church where the Mass was held in Westminster, Md.

The protesters - Phelps and six family members - broke no laws. Snyder knew they were present, but he did not see their signs or hear their statements until he turned on the news at his son's wake.

No....the miners will get slapped with some bogus "hate crime" charge, while WBC complaining their "rights" were "violated".

It's not about getting fined, it is about getting drug through court.

Pay close attention to these guys. They are very careful to skirt the border of legal vs illegal, trained instigators.
