Mississippi police prepare to arrest anti-Westboro gay-praying satanists!

The ABSOLUTE IRONY of the protesters of Westboro's rude and cruel evil perpetrated on grieving families of our troops are instead the ones being charged with "desecration of a grave" is beyond compare!

You couldn't make stuff up as silly as southern states and their bigoted sheriffs are!

This is a city that is nearly 2 times more violent per capita than Chicago. Yet they are going to "get the Satanists"!

Westboro responds with something too obscene for PF: https://twitter.com/WBCFliers/status/360359382619414528/photo/1

 

I don't know what to think. I don't like what Westboro is doing, but they should actually be arrested? No, they have a right to say what they want to. So I say, let them be dicks. We let the Kardashins on TV, so we can obviously let people do things that don't matter at all.

 

Well I hate to be Devil's advocate here, but despite the hateful, and disgusting hatred the WBC preaches on a daily basis, they firmly stay within Legal Boundaries. The Satanists however did break a law and should be arrested and tried for their crime.

 

Their poster says not to worship the dead but the head nut goes bonkers when people visit his mother's grave. That's too funny.

 

Apparently the "crime" consists of leaving everything just the way they found it.

 

i say we take the Satanists and the WBC and make them fight to the death. Both sides are equally guilty of being some serious mental freaks and honestly the world would be much better off without them.

as for meridian, its a crap hole just like jackson and memphis, and to be honest its no coincidence why.

 

I doubt this. Phelps is a genuine lunatic to the core. These "satanists" are a comedy troupe, doing street theater.

 

Trespassing is a crime there? man your laws are very close to North Korean . Anything more than a $500 fine would be excessive .

 

Everything is a crime in America.

 

Funny...couldn't the WBC conceivably be charged with desecration as they protest funerals?

Food for thought.

 

Especially since a cemetery is open to the public during the day.

 

first ive heard of a satanist comedy group lol.

 

Most satanist groups are comedy groups, whether on purpose or inadvertently.

Whereas groups like Westboro and other Evangelical Christians, despite being hilarious, are NEVER comedy groups on purpose.

 

No, these days they dont even get vaguely close to the funerals. When they came to our humble little town, the police chief "accidently" gave them the wrong information about the funeral route lol

 

Your police chief is a good man.

 

Arresting these people would be an act of gross imbecility and immorality, so you can be sure the police will go through with it.

 

I agree. And of course the Patriot Guard put on their usual magnificent performance

 

...something in the law that refers to "fighting words" or deliberate provocation...........not sure how it works throughout the states

 

I can't say enough good things about the patriot guard. They are American heros.

 

The Westboro people are actually a lot smarter than people think they are. They've all got a background in law, so they know exactly what they can and can't do. Conversely, most of the people who oppose them are just reactionaries who aren't educated on law or don't care about it. So they will likely find a lot of their counter-protests backfiring. I watched a Youtube video once with that one lady that's always on tv from Westboro and she was lecturing an opponent on the law, and I was actually surprised at how much she knew.

 

yeah i suppose lol. Westboro can go fall off a cliff and id do a backflip in celebrations, but i wouldnt say all evangelicals are bad folk. I know their sects are some of the more "fundamental", but being in the bible belt i know some people who even gag at the thought of what Westboro does in their spare time.

 

So how are protests "backfiring"?

Are you feeling all soft and mushie for Westboro because the Satanists protested them with parody?

 

These dumb(*)(*)(*)(*)s are getting themselves arrested, aren't they? Sure sounds like backfiring to me.

 

I know, but that's not usually enough for an arrest, it's just a person being a dick.

 

She should - she's a lawyer. Most of them are and they know they have the 1st Amendment on their side for their vile protesting......

Meghan Phelps left the snake pit of WBC, apologizing to those she had offended and I think another female member left also....

Kudos to them for realizing what they were doing was downright evil and getting away from it.....
