What's good about America

Post by VBshooter »

THese folks in Missouri put the funeral protesters from the Westboro Baptist Church in their place and then some....The church protesters are the human garbage that stand outside of fallen military members funerals and spew their vile message at the families expense,,.These good people weren't hearing that and put the protesters in their place making them leave the funeral.... These fine folks deserve a salute and support for their dedication to the values that make this country strong ,, There is a video at the page but I don;t know how to post its format here.

Residents of Missouri Town Block Protesters From Picketing Soldier's Funeral

Members of a small Missouri town banded together Saturday to block a controversial pastor and members of his Westboro Baptist Church from protesting the funeral of a fallen U.S. soldier, Fox4kc.com reports.

While I do believe in FOS this church group takes it way too far. Someone needs to remind them that these dead heroes gave their lives protecting that right. They need to take their frustrations out on another group...I have several suggestions that immediately come to mind.
No more catchy slogans for me...I am simply fed up...4...four...4...2+2...

These people aren't going to listen to rational reasoning any more than that elderly lady client I have.
Lord, please protect us today from having to use deadly force.

What's good about America?

The food diversity... Guns... The outdoors... Freedom.

Those are my four things I love about my country most.

Yes, indeed they wont until it suits them and their twisted cause...

So, what's good about America...

The people who believe and practice that which is good, honest, pure, and true...but the best thing is I can still worship my Father, the one true living God, without fear of my door being kicked in...but of course I can do that anywhere on the planet...for my beliefs are something no man, governing body, law or otherwise can ever take away...

That Westboro church consists solely of the Phelps family, and they're allllll lawyers(of course).

Those marches are how they make their living. They show up, fling their crap, then claim their right to fling said crap was infringed, sue the municipality, and settle for $.

Best to just ignore them.

Amen to that. I'm glad to see so many folks taking action and standing up for the family of this fallen soldier.
