It's a shame the family is made up of lawyers, otherwise this shit would happen every time. I'm glad someone actually decided to do something about those cocks.

[Murray]

And no charges to the one that attacked them. I do like sweet justice.

[HighWay]

Those people still matter?

[JellySoup]

I'm not actually seeing anyone getting beaten up. It looks like he rushed to jump on the American flag (per what the actual text of the article says) and the cops stopped him by pinning him to the ground and carrying him away.

No fighting took place, although I guess you could say the guy did get beaten in the sense that he lost.

[wildfire4461]

Not bad. I'd rather see a drive by done to them though.

[Cootie]

I hate those fucks. I will even admit I laughed when I saw a video of someone throwing a rock in a drive-by and busting one of their kids heads open. fuck em all.

They all have it coming.

No their kids aren't the ones who thought it would be a good idea to bash gay soldiers in the first place, people who hurt children aren't any better than the Westboros IMO.

It was pretty hilarious to see that guy get through the two cops and plow through a couple of signholders rofl.

I do feel for the kids of that church. I saw a documentary on Netflix a few months ago about the doctrine of the Westboro church. The kids openly repeated what they had been taught about killing gays and such. When questioned on why and what it all meant, it couldn't be more obvious that not a one of them understood why or even what the individual words goddamn meant. Just little meat puppets repeating what they hear.

I don't think the cops were trying to stop him too quickly to be honest.

They were exercising their right to free speech, why is it a good thing that they were attacked?

Oh, I dunno maybe because they were persecuting a group of people that a book written a few thousand years said to hate. Homosexuality is not allowed in the bible because one of the saints ( forgot who.) witnessed older men abusing teenagers in rome.

Aside from people just flat out having enough of them, it's good because the guy was about to break a major law by stomping on a flag.

In a world of assholes, the Westboro Baptist church is made up of the top bastards.

[Ragnarokia]

This pleases me.

[orangebomb]

Clearly, the person was going to break the law by stomping on the flag, which is a obvious no-no, especially in a military funeral. Naturally, this person is going to brunt of a major beating and absolutely deserve it just on principle alone. Whenever WBC gets involved in anything, you know something bad is probably going to happen, and they get attention off of this, which is simply shameful.

If even the KKK themselves hate them, it's for a good reason.

Also, if you try to exercise your right to free speech by speaking against them, you will receive a lawsuit.

And they'll picket your funeral.

Traumatizing people by yelling that their kids were fags and needed to die at that persons funeral should not be allowed under free speech. What they do crossed the line from free speech into harassment.

Maybe because this is what Westboro were close to doing?

There are limits to free speech that are justified, the first amendment have been abused by people like them.

[Urban-Champion]

justice served.

[yurgenburgen]

I expected a video of some dickhead getting rightfully beaten up. Not a fixed shot of the back of some bald guy's head with the sound of a Jerry Springer audience dubbed over.

[naronic]

While I hate the WBC with a passion, this isn't a win. Free speech should be good and alive for everyone and censorship through violent means is a slippery slope people

[Rad]

This was inevitable.

[Viper]

You know Westboro is going to do whatever it takes to try to sue the person who went after that person.
Even though what that person did was completely justified.

For being horrible people.

Sounds fine by me.

[WirelessBrain]

So what , do you think they are going to cry home to their mommy's and disband the church? Nope , the WBC are mercenary lawyers who sue whoever's stupid enough to get pissed off at them and harm them , its just a moneymaking scam operated by the phelps family . I'm 110% the guy in the vid is going to get sued into the ground. If everyone (including the media.) ignored them then they would just fade out of existence and save many people grief.
