Of course, the best way to damage a cause is to defend it with faulty arguments... Actually, I'd almost prefer to believe that WBC is intentionally trying to undermine the Evangelical movement than that they actually believe the shit they spout.
I was hoping these guys were out of operation. They were getting sued, and their church caught on fire. Meanwhile, I appreciate the cameraman being patient, and actually asking questions to get these people to explain themselves (And thus sound silly), and stop her from basically being inauguration trolls.
You know, I live just a few blocks away from these folks, and I was wondering the same thing myself. Usually we could count on seeing them every Sunday outside some random church (that aren't in the bad parts of town), but recently I've noticed a distinct lack of neon rainbow signs.
Oh and I may be wrong in this, because there is *so* much vandalism committed to that "church", but I think you are thinking another church that got burned down tot the ground a year ago. This church is literally a stone-throw away from the Phelps compound, and the church was known in Topeka for being the church that put up white crosses (names and all) for every U.S. solider that died in the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars (until they ran out of space on their lot and had to consolidate the crosses to larger ones bearing a hundred or more names.
I love when naturalized citizens come across things like this and get really patriotic because they're embarrassed for America and not yet used to the slimy side of "free speech".
