ACLU Files Suit On Behalf Westboro Baptist Church

[headhuntersix]

Once again defending the undefendable....u leftists shouldn't be to happy. Phelps' band of morons don't really hate the troops..they hate gays...and they hate the "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy. The logic leap is massive. 

U guys love gay rights..u should petition the ACLU to stop defending this worthless piece of shit.



The daughter of Westboro Baptist Church founder Fred Phelps has sued the city of St. Joseph over its ordinance banning protests at soldiers’ funerals.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, asks a judge to declare the ordinance and its enforcement unconstitutional.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Eastern Missouri filed the suit on behalf of Shirley Phelps-Roper. She said the suit is the only such action pending against a municipality in the country, although many others have passed similar laws.

Still don't understand how anyone can take the ACLU seriously after the whole defending the rights of gay child molesters (NAMBLA) debacle.

They have EVERY Constitutional Right to do what they do.

Why should I be angry?  I think they are horrible religious morons, the scum of society, but they are protected by the Constitution.

Should we start shredding the Constitution because we don`t agree with what someone says?

How about we ridicule them instead and tell them how pointless and inane they are.  You know, the usual fair that I do with religious people.

[headhuntersix]

They have no right to infringe on someones private funeral...and thats what they're doing. Luckily the Patriot Guard comes out for every one of these funerals and drowns them out, nationwide. This isn't a religion, its a cult.

They should be sued for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Blame their religious views, because without them, they wouldn`t be wasting their time.

They can be sued privately by the afflicted parties in a private civil suit for their action.

i'm a REAL libertarian   even assholes have rights   lol

[Soul Crusher]

Of course they have rights, but so do people who are targeted by these people. 

That is why we have civil courts. 

If the people getting harrassed at these funerals feel emotionally distressed by these peoples' actions, there may be a common law cause of action known as intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Look it up.

I think Westboro knows its a complete joke and they don`t really believe what they do.  Its like a giant comedy act with them.

This is amusing.  I recommend watching all eight parts.

The fact that this attitude still remains in this day & age, is a sad reminder of how vile we can be.

May God forgive me, ...but I'd love to see Phelps caught on tape in a candid video getting cornholed & loving it!

[Hereford]

Who? Michael Phelps?

dont worry, he has already.

[Dos Equis]

Despicable.  They don't know where to draw the line. 

These idiots shouldn't a "right" to yell crap at someone's funeral.

But when Obama makes a mockery of the constitution it's ok?

[headhuntersix]

They barely get heard. The one I had to do last year, they never got close. The family was mildly upset until we got to the grave site and then all u could hear was a motorcycle engine in the background.

[Hereford]

Not surprising at all the ACLU would defend that bullshit.

I would have a difficult time not punching one of them in the mouth if I was attending a funeral and saw them show up.

That is their game.  Get you to punch them and they sue you for assault and get you to settle for $$$$.

It might be worth the money.
