This church was way out of line and what they did showed the utmost disrespect. Everyone has a right to agree or disagree with the war, Iraq, etc., but please show respect to those who have gone over there to preserve our freedom and way of life.
I'm just curious as to who they think will protect the U.S if we don't?!?!?! 
I pray that church sees what they are doing is wrong and stop spewing propaganda to impressionable youth.

As John Lennon sang:
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

I am a military brat, my dad served 23 years. I have the utmost respect for those who choose to serve our country. I have NO respect for those who choose to, at the lowest time for a grieving family, use a somber occasion to make their point AND then gloat about it afterward.
These people are not Christians.
I hope the family gets every DIME!

And that is what they really want: publicity.

I heard a phone interview on CNN this morning with the leader of the funeral picketers. Let's just say that the reporter was not objective during it. He finally cut the interview short when the leader wouldn't stop spewing his beliefs and let him ask questions. Sometimes I wonder...

To add, it also disgusts me to see CHILDREN holding up his signs and wearing those shirts in that picture. It's sad because they are being FED his awful crap and have no clue how awful it is.

First of, Fred Phelps is from Kansas and this is not normal Mid-West thinking!
It is embaressing to say the least.
He is an idiot along with his family and congregation! His so called church=cult is headquatered in Topeka, Ks.
To degrade the deaths of the valient mem and women who have lost their lives is dispictable!
His legal Lawyer said in the last report that I read is to file against the judgement and will win! BS.
$11 million is just going to be the tip of the ice berg and I hope they are put out of business!
They will never get the money over this suit, but it does set a precident for further law suits against them!

I love legal lawyers.
When I was interning on the hill we got calls/faxes/letters from Westboro on almost a daily basis. Lots of lawyers in that family, which is why they've always skirted by without much interference. The best at combating them thus far is the group Patriot Guard Riders, which form a barrier between the "church" and the mourners. http://www.patriotguard.org/

It's those illegal lawyers you have to watch out for!
