Default Woww I have never seen so much hate!

Has anyone here ever heard of the Westboro Baptist Church? They are a church in Kansas run by a anti-homosexual propagandist named Fred Phelps. They go around to various events such as funerals and gay pride rallies and picket them. They have "wonderful" slogans like "God hates fags" and "Thank god for 9/11". They think that everyone besides themselves are going to hell in America for being what they call "Fag enablers", or people that "permit" us to be gay! Here is a link to an interview with one of them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGc6A...eature=related All I have to say is that they are so crazy that I actually find this more funny than insulting!!! But what do other people think?

Hate is a real strong word....but I'm an athiest so I dont beleive I will go to hell for hating a group of people and I HATE the Westboro Babtist Church. They are anti gay, antisemetic, anti catholic, anti mexican. ect. Fred Phelps daughter is starting to take over and actually likes that people hate them. A guy in canada got stabbed and beheaded and they are acutally gonna go protest the poor dead guy for living a "sinful" life. It has never been stated if he is in fact gay or not btw.

these people are clearly crazy. if you do anything in the name of god, someone will follow you. sad but true. the hatred these people have is incredible, but what bothers me is how they involve their kids in this, like preaching intolerance is a family activity.

That's exactly what I thought when I read the raw, unedited transcription of the interview which will be published on Full Spectrum 4.

Lovely. I was watching the episode on the TYRA Show. I recommend you guys watching it . Here are the 2 videos.

First Part:

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


Second Part:

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.



Tyra gets edgy, because this family is being so rude to her. I totally agree with Tyra 100%. Plus Tyra works with gay guys most of the time anyways. She is a proud supporter.

Wow...I've seen Phelps vs. Newscasters, Phelps vs. Comedians, and Phelps vs. British Documentary Makers, but I've never seen one of the Phelpses go off against someone so strongly on the side of homosexuals as Tyra. Even I could tell that she was a little misinformed on some points, and I don't exactly love her, but that was...interesting.

Eurgh, WBC are mos....like full on mos

That said, I have to say it was not a very successful interview by Tyra. I think that in an interview with those types of people, there is no point in little power plays where one person talks over the other; it's immature. Rather, let them speak. Let them preach for hours, because it only shows how dumb they are, and getting into bickering arguments with them only brings the interviewer down to their level
