Outrage as Westboro Baptist plans praise
gathering outside Sandy Hook Elementary
school to celebrate God ´executing his
judgement´ in horrific shooting rampage
that killed 20 children and 6 adults

Daily Mail [UK], by Leslie Larson

The tight-knit community of Newtown, Connecticut is numb in the aftermath of the heart-wrenching massacre at the Sandy Hook Elementary school on Friday when a gunman killed 20 young students, all aged six and seven, in addition to six adults. As families mourn the lives that were cut short in this unspeakable horror, an extremist group has announced they plan to congregate at the scene of the tragedy and offer praise to God for ´executing his judgement´--an unthinkable act amidst the sorrow overwhelming the quiet town. A member from the Westboro Baptist Church, an unaffiliated religious group that self-identifies as

Speaking of mental health. . . .

I hope the crowd of Patriot Guard Riders who block these non-humans is ten times bigger than anything they´ve done in the past. Make that fifty.

These are sadistic, mentally ill people. The law is completely unable to deal with their madness, and they are in fact emboldened by that knowledge. The only thing that will stop them is righteous violence. May it be done.

No, let them show up.

And ask the Patriot Guard to stand down.

It´s time these *ss-hats see what true rage is, up close and personal.

I´m pretty sure everyone will ´see nothing´ and the police will be way too busy directing traffic to respond any time soon.

People who bastardize the Christian faith (think Crusades) have always been exploited by non-Christians and Leftists to represent the true Christian faith, sollowers of which would never do nor say such things as the Westboro BC is doing and saying. They are hate freaks and there is no way they could possibly know what "God´s judment" is or isn´t.

Atheists believe they can use this hate group to smear real Christians but it won´t work because the real Christians will rise up against them.

As to why an all-powerful, all-good God would permit such evils as this latest one, the Holocaust, the Armenian slaughters and other ethnic cleansing outrages, as well as why He would permit such corruption and evil in American politics today, that is a question only God will answer in His own good timing.

None of us may be around to find out but justice WILL be done and God´s purposes WILL come to pass at some point.

The moment we begin asking God why He allows something to happen, we have admitted we do not know His character and we do not personally know Him.

These lunatics simply do not know the Bible. They carried a sign recently that said, "God hates sinners", do they not know that God´s son, Jesus Christ died for sinners!. God hates the sin, but loves the sinner and offered a way to overcome. I cringe whenever the Westboro church is mentioned, the Baptist Convention should sue to have the name "Baptist" taken away from such a hate group.

The Patriot Guard won´t stop anything, that´a not our charter. We provide a shield of members and flags to protect the families from idiots like Westboro, but we do not interact with them as that would actually be counter-productive.

I never supported the Hell´s Angels in the Altamont concert "security" thing for the Stones, but I think maybe it´s time for the Guard to stand down and let the Angels provide for these families, they have no compunction to avoid "confrontation".

Fred Phelps is an attorney. He provokes in hopes of being assaulted so that he can extort a settlement from his victims and fund his hate filled enterprise. Of course the theoretical limit of that business model is that he must survive the initial confrontation.

So far he has chosen his targets with due consideration to his long-term survival, after all, he cancelled that West Virginia adventure after considering how many abandoned coal mines would be convenient graves. He might want to re-think this little road trip as well.

#4,

When some claim that God could not exist because a loving God would never allow these kinds of horrible things to happen, I would counter that nobody could know anything is horrible or not were it not for a sense of morality. And, if morality is simply the product of human opinion (in a Godless Universe) then who can state with authority that one opinion is more viable than another?

Some cultures say "love they neighbor" and some say "eat thy neigbor". Absent some higher authority who can say one is wrong?

Finally, a loving God might just value free will above totalitarian control over the affairs of men. After all, those who freely choose to love are certainly more genuine than those who have been programmed to do so. But there is a risk when humans are allowed to decide for themselves and at times this is painfully evident.

Oh please, wake up people. These are not Christians. They are part of the agenda and process being used to demonize people that oppose obama. These monsters are employed by the left. Their sole job is too come out whenever an event like this happen and misrepresent a faith. They are simply doing what they were paid to do. Look at the clown wearing the Jewish flag. What is that?

Thank you #26. While there were some abuses during the Crusades as there are in any and ALL wars, the Christians were justified in pushing back the invading Muslims. Don´t buy into leftist revisionism. Of course, no one is perfect and no war goes on without some atrocities, but that is human nature and not a reflection on the concept of Christianity. I cannot say the same for the invading Muslims, however, since their religion/political model is based on force, violence and murder as is outlined in their doctrines.

Let them show up; time everyone, not just the military, felt the pain so maybe they will be driven into the ground once and for all. CT is a blue state; let them be outrages and they already have a so-called assault weapon ban so guess you´ll check your guns when you cross their border so it will be a criminal magnet.

Analysis of commercially available rice imported into the US has revealed it contains levels of lead far higher than regulations suggest are safe. Some samples exceeded the "provisional total tolerable intake" (PTTI) set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by a factor of 120.

The most successful politicians write their own obituaries. I have read a number of Baroness Thatcher´s today and wondered whether the writers would be surprised if they were told she would probably agree with most of what was written, even in the Left-of-centre outlets. This is because successful politicians so dominate the debate on the issues they care about--which were many, in Thatcher´s case--that they determine the course of the argument including the response from opponents. They do this by defining themselves in the public imagination by what they are against rather than what they are for, and leaving only

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”
