[brymble]

...They were attempting to cross into Canada to protest at the funeral of Tim McLean, the Greyhound bus murder victim.

What the f**king hell? :razz:

Where is that facepalm ASCII art when you need it? Seriously, couldn't these people be doing something better then protesting the dead? Like feeding starving children or teaching people to read...

[LostSheep]

Fred, haven't you got the message yet? God (Your god, certainly not the one anyone else who actually is Christian shares) doesn't actually approve of you.

To quote George Carlin...

"That might be something Christ would do."

[Whitewolf]

Those people are nuttier than a fruitcake.

:thumbsup: Go Canada!

[Caitlin.ann]

This is why I love Canada. :)

[Gareth]

The lack of logic with these idiots defies me.

[Dr. K]

I am all for freedom of speech, but this is horrible. Not only should they be stopped from entering Canada I think they should not be allowed to breed!

[WynterWynd]

If they have been stopped from entering Canada....why in the hell can't they be denied re-entry to the United States?

If they can hold a tractor-trailer load in that 'no mans land'...why can't we just trap those fools in there too:uhhuhuh:

Geez, what an embarrassment to the human race....everyone out of the gene pool...its been polluted!

They then will find a way to annoy all the passers by entering or leaving Canada.

Why can they not protest in China? It would suit them to the ground with their Buddhist roots and Communist thinking.:thumbsup:

[aranarose]

One more reason for me to move to Canada!

[Ravens_Tears]

Unfortunately some of them actually made it in. I'm curious as to who was so gracious enough to give them an address to fed-ex their stuff too. Apparently they are at the Holiday Inn in Winnipeg... http://www.chrisd.ca/blog/1297/hated-us-church-group-shacks-up-at-holiday-inn/ :sick: I really hope they leave these people to mourn in peace.

[aluokaloo]

gods I hate these people! i don't think i've ever hated anybody so much! i think it should be illegal to protest at funerals personally, or more specifically, i think it should be illegal for wbc and similar ilk to protest at funerals.

[Ahautenites]

These people are so dense.

Canada rocks.

Don't give them what they want. Do not wish illegality upon them, and give them the persecution they crave. Do not wish harm upon them, and give them the victimhood they desire. Do not have hatred for them, and give them the conflict they seek. Do not give them any energy at all.

Even your negative energy is still your energy. Are these people worth your energy?

Brymble is right, don't give them ANYTHING.

Disapprove, but hatred is non-productive.

Frankly, I hope something calamitous happens to them. But you know, I'm not going to put any kind of energy into it. They put enough negative energy into the universe themselves... it's going to eventually backfire.

Westboro never showed, but 300-400 peaceful supporters did with police posted everywhere just in case.

ETA: I found numerous support groups and Tim McClean's myspace..not for the faint of heart. :(

I'm extremely glad that things were peaceful today..he deserved at least that.

Peaceful supporters, that sounds so nice.
