You think that the protesters will return next year.

It might not be 100% related...but I thought it would be close enough?

GOOD IDEA or BAD IDEA?

A t-shirt with a burning cross that says, "Turn to paganism or burn in Heaven!"

What about a shirt with a picture of Jesus on the front and it says, "He died for our sins and all he got was a t-shirt that looked just like this!"

yeah, there's a difference between being witty and just offending every Christian in the area. I'm a Christian and I'd be offended by both of those.

vash9898 · April 20, 2009, 10:03:27 PM

i hope they are there so we can all laugh, boo, and make fun of like what we all so at concerts :p

True, we shouldn't lower our selves to their level.

I really hope they return. I have some GREAT ideas for if they do. Most of them are to inappropriate to speak of.

Piccahoe · April 24, 2009, 03:58:18 AM

Someone should just stand in front of the protester's face and stare at them. If they claim harassment, then just say "I'm just standing here, just like your holding up a sign and yelling out nonsense". <_<

How is shouting "god hate gays" not harassment?

There is a thin line between "protesting" and "harassment". What they're doing is clearly harassment.

dictionary.com defines harassment as
to disturb persistently; torment, as with troubles or cares; bother continually; pester; persecute.

and defines protesting as
an expression or declaration of objection, disapproval, or dissent, often in opposition to something a person is powerless to prevent or avoid: a protest against increased taxation.

Example of a protest:
A company is schedule to cut down trees to build new mall. This is a protest because they don't have control of the trees and they can't really avoid.

Example of Harassment:
Holding up signs like "worship jesus or go to hell" that offends people at an Anime convention. I consider this to be harassment because that sign targets individuals who don't believe in religion rather than "Anime" itself.
They don't have control over us but they could avoid it by not getting their kids into this stuff.

What Westboro Baptist Church is doing is not protesting but harassing people believe they some of the people there don't believe what they believe.

What we could do is get our lawyers ready if they come again but then again, thats a bit harsh.

Wht were tere protesters?

Glitch · April 24, 2009, 03:15:10 PM

They probably won't show up since we pwned them so badly. I would like to see them try to one up us.
