    Richard . . . You definitely have a *different* way of looking at things. I'll have to ponder that one for awhile.



    And in the mean time, I think they're all pretty low.

    Do you remember the name of the group that bombed the Murrah building in OK City?

    It wasn't a group, it was two knuckleheads that weren't part of a large group.
    They didn't publicize their intentions and worked 'under the radar'...

    Ted Kaczynski, the Olypmic Bomber are another two idiots.....Guys running around, alone, with no desire to be famous.

    With these morons we know exactly where they are, who they are, what they are doing and what the agenda is.

    We do not have to listen to the message-hearing the words is enough.

    The squeaky wheel gets the grease.

    It's the quiet one, that fails when you are on the freeway, that gets us into trouble.

    Panel Endorses Protest Restrictions At Funerals

    POSTED: 10:48 am EST January 10, 2006
    UPDATED: 10:56 am EST January 10, 2006

    Protests by an anti-gay group at military funerals prompted a legislative panel on Tuesday to endorse a bill that would make disorderly conduct a felony if it occurs within 500 feet of funerals or memorial services.

    Sen. Brent Steele, R-Bedford, filed the bill in response to a protest at the Aug. 28 funeral for Army Staff Sgt. Jeremy Doyle, an Indianapolis native killed in Iraq.

    Six members of the Topeka, Kan.-based Westboro Baptist Church dragged U.S. flags on the ground and shouted insults at Doyle's surviving family members outside a mortuary in Martinsville, 30 miles southwest of Indianapolis. They have conducted similar protests at other funerals in Indiana and other states.

    The Rev. Fred Phelps, the church's founder, contends American soldiers are being killed in Iraq as vengeance from God for protecting a country that harbors gays. The church, which is not affiliated with a larger denomination, is made up mostly of Phelps' children, grandchildren and in-laws.

    Nobody testified against the legislation at Tuesday's committee hearing, where the bill was endorsed unanimously and sent to the full Senate. Steele said people could still protest funerals, but not in a "fighting or tumultuous manner" within 500 feet of them, funeral processions, burials or memorial services.

    Protesters Expected To Crash Military Funeral

    Funeral services will be held Tuesday in Evansville for a soldier who was killed in Iraq.

    Pvt. Jonathan Pfender, 22, was killed by an improvised explosive device during a patrol on Dec. 30. Pfender was with the 101st Airborne Division.

    Police said they will restrict access to the funeral, the funeral procession and the burial because protesters are expected to be on hand.

    They expect 12 to 20 anti-gay protesters from a Topeka, Kan., church.

    Police said they won't tolerate any illegal activity.

    Well, I'm so glad to hear that it's just a family and not a whole gaggle of people. That would have been much worse. Thanks for the info.

    As I had mentioned in one of the other threads, my family is from the Buckhannon area.

    My grandmother passed away last Saturday and my mom, dad, and sister went back for the funeral (I was too sick to travel ). One of my mom's best friends from high school is married to the Sheriff...

    He stated that he was ready for things to get back to normal; this group is continuing to stir stuff up. Apparently, the group "tailgates" tragic events such as this, provokes the locals into action (retailiation), then turns around and sues those they've provoked. Nice. Real friggin, nice.

    Seriously, what's wrong with some people?!

    Living in the US....


    One of the "jokes" that my dad had was "do what the Mexican Government did against the college student in the 60's , Machine gun them in the streets..."


    We have a great government..

    If you do not like the status quo, you take to the streets and complain.

    Unless you are REALLY STUPID you will protest, then go home and watch yourself on the tube afterwards.

    Point and laugh at the misguided people that are making light of the people who make a difference.

    Do not get mad at them...feel passion..

    Like my dad would have said....


    Did you study to be that stupid?
