Westboro Baptist Church Protest is Publicly Ridiculed
Ah, my favorite Junk Activists of all time, the Westboro Baptist Church, has one again made the news. Their protests are always good times, but to say the least I’m pretty damn confused about the point of this one.
This time they’ve turned their attentions to Portland State University to spread their message of God-fueled hatred protest Portland’s gender neutral potties.
I always thought that the only reason we have seperate bathrooms to begin with is because each gender pisses on the seat in their own way and the other doesn’t want to deal with it….and maybe Portland doesn’t care who’s making a mess anymore. Besides, don’t we all have “gender neutral” bathrooms in our homes? It is sinful for a man to piss in a toilet instead of a urinal? Is it wrong for a woman to piss where a man hath spilled thine urine? Was that in the Book of Lavatory, Chapter 6, Verse 2?
All four of them show up to protest…well, we know “to get attention” is really why:
She [Libby Phelps], seemed to be taking the melee in stride, even welcoming the counter-protests’ attention. “I love it! It’s awesome,” she said, with a kind of giddy glee. “This is my favorite part, I love it when people come and block my sign, it’s awesome. Cause it draws so much more attention over here, and so people come over and look and be like, oh what’s the big the big fuss over there? And they’ll come over and look.”
Um, yes, it’s so much fun to travel to Oregon to get blocked, laughed at, and publicly ridiculed by a large number of peaceful Portlanders.
To Westboro Church: Kudos you on the awesome scam you’ve organized to raise funds, travelling the country to perform rainbow-flag-stomping antics. Is this from selling M&Ms in front of the grocery store or is it Church tithing? There is an outlet for your kind. It’s called Jerry Springer. A perfect place for those of us who respond to our lesser indulgences of ignorance and violence. You’ll find the perfect concoction of trash to inspire fans and violence. Important side Note: You can throw chairs at people, too. And I hope they throw them back. It will make me “LOL” and “WTF”.
And thanks for the link to my site. Please send more visitors my way, I like the attention…you know what it’s like.
