We followed the story of the Westboro Baptist Church as
families split and children were brainwashed into picketing funerals and bashing
homosexuals.
During that time, we interviewed more than a dozen members
of the reviled group, including some of the only members not related by blood,
the Drains. They welcomed us into their homes and gave us access to 17 years of
home video footage. In return, we produced an unbiased look into the lives of
one of America's most despised organizations.

Westboro Church = America's freedom of speech canary in the coal mine. I'd only be worried if they were denied their right to protest.
And if you're Agnostic or Atheist then you should support WBC's ability to voice their opinions. The WBC is the best anti-religion public relations campaign in the US.

Reverend Phelps is a psychopath,
That's why his message is so radical , shock and awe!
He's no different than Jim Jones and the sick leader of the Heavens Gate cult.
Psychopaths are devious , they are masters at re wiring their victims minds , they separate people from their better judgement and teach them how to second guess themselves.
Psychopaths put themselves into a position of authority over their targets , using fear and violence to control them.
You Tube .... Defense against the Psy More..

Don't even get me started with those dirtbags!
There are some true politicians , but too few and far in between!
Defense against the Psychopath covers that point as well!

when losers can't make it in the world alone they group together in hopes of becoming part of something significant, but they only become a bigger group of useless losers! there is nothing fascinating or even mildly interesting about them.

I'd love to drop a jdam on these people. Just pure idiots.
Using the kids is the worst part. It's really sad and pathetic tactic to keep them scared of the rest of the population.

Also a great documentry about them.
When that old guy dies, would be funny to picket his funeral.

@DonOgg with these religion businesses making billions off of these idiots. at what point is it considered fraud. any other business making money by scamming people with lies would be shut down and the owners probably thrown in jail.

To be honest, while these hateful cretins offer some entertainment, should we really give them any air time, anywhere, at all?

Freaking loser! I wonder if Sandusky touched Phelps when they were playmates as children. I'd say Sandusky sodomized Phelps and rammed his penis down his throat. It is the only explanation for his phobia. So Mr. Phelps, it's OK to admit you enjoyed it. Let it go and move on with your life. This piece of shit needs to die and have his body parts strewn across our next battlefield to be pissed on by our soldiers..
