Dude, I have an idea!

So y'all remember the whole "God Hates Fags" kerfuffle that went on in '06? Well, I found out recently that it's been going on for a while, longer than four years. In fact, Michael Moore even managed to bug them about it. (By the way, I'm totally naming my next car something awesome like the Sodomobile, but probably not as blatant. I like to be subtle and really screw with people's minds) This video was filmed in the tail-end of the 90's.

Dude. Does this Pastor Fred Phelps dude have no life at all? Seriously. And his daughter? Batshit fucking insane. The woman won't even allow you to breathe before she launches into her little speech about how God hates us all and is taking it all out on our soldiers in this (stupid pointless) war and we're going to burn in hell because we allow gay people to exist and we don't do exactly like the Bible says (you know, like not eating shrimp and marrying off your daughters at the tender age of eight!) and the Pope allows this (he doesn't, he's trying to turn back the clock to the Middle Ages) and the President is the Antichrist (Dude, I thought that guy was supposed to be from Europe or something...) and so on an so forth.

Well... I think I'm screwed. I'm a Pagan lesbian liberal who voted for Obama in his last election and will probably do so in the next.

Yep. I'm screwed. *long dramatic sigh*

Look, here's an idea. The freaking church - oh, I'm sorry, I mean cult - that this idiot runs, the Westboro Baptist Church (Dude, I know Baptists and they aren't ANYTHING like this clusterfuck) is sooooo unpopular, they have LESS THAN A HUNDRED MEMBERS and EIGHTY-FIVE PERCENT OF THOSE MEMBERS ARE FAMILY.

Methinks somebody pissed in that genepool somewhere... >_>

So anyway, if it's such a small (AND FUCKING LOUD) community... why don't we just ignore them? You know, the media and the press could, you know, completely ignore them. (...the President can tell them to do that, right? Maybe Congress is so sick of these idiots that they'll team up with the other two branches of the government and pass a law forbidding press contact with these idiots? That could work. I'm sure 99.9% of the American government, state and federal, are completely sick of these guys.) If they lose the fuel for their little fires of hatred, which is basically the attention-whoring crap that preteens pull when they feel like their overstressed over-strained parents aren't giving them enough devotion, maybe they'll find new hobbies. Like scrapbooking. I hear that's a very fun hobby to have. My favorite hobby is drawing raptors. Not the dinosaurs, you dummy. The birds.

So yeah. Here's an idea: stop listening to them. They can whine and yell and stamp their feet all they want, but if the rest of the sane world keeps that hallowed chant in mind ("Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.") then the WBC might go "hoshit, no one's listening to us anymore! BAAAAAWWW I'M GOING HOME AND I'M TAKING MY TOYS WITH ME!"

Hey, just an idea.

Or, we could just keep rickrolling them.
