You aren't going to fit in well with this crowd. You'll likely catch shit, maybe catch a beating spouting off bullshit like that around these people. These are men that fought in WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Somalia, Iraq, Eastern Europe and of late Iraq II and Afghanistan, the Phillipines, Adfrica of yeah and eastern Europe.
Yeah Yemen is doing a great CT job ALL BY ITSELF. Hahaha Anyway man. I'm not trying to be too much of a jerk here, I'm being pretty honest. To most of us the answer is "politics don't matter, support the warfighter 100%; 100% of the time". You mentioned being a vet. What branch and MOS? -----Original Message----- From: Eric Roberts [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, April 03, 2010 7:54 PM To: cf-community Subject: RE: _Speaking_of_the_Supreme_Court:_Marine's_father_ord_ere d_to_pay_court_costs_to_Westboro_Baptist_Churc So where is the companion guide "The Guide to Right Wing Whackos"? I would be interested in helping out with any blocking maneuvers in the area, but otherwise, this group seems a bit too right wing for my taste. Not everyone on the left is anti-war when it is a just war...only illegal wars like Iraq.

There is another group I am in called protest warriors. We set up in a similar manner, without the bikes, which would be nice to drown these fucks out. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Roberts [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 01, 2010 9:44 AM To: cf-community Subject: RE: _Speaking_of_the_Supreme_Court:_Marine's_father_ord_ere d_to_pay_court_costs_to_Westboro_Baptist_Churc Thanks for your service to vets Kris! We do appreciate it very much. I wish I had a bike to help out.

Phelps makes his living by suing people. He goes out and makes them mad enough to provoke an assault or something along those lines and then sues. What's more, he and his whole family are lawyers and they know exactly what legal lines they can push. Basically the legal situation here is the same as a whole lot of other civil cases. You lose the case and you have to pay the winner's court costs. It's not the first time someone's been ordered to pay court fees because some jerk decided to protest their kid's funeral. Oh, and for the record, these are extremely vulgar protests. It literally made me feel ill the first time I saw one. Anyway, I'm going to suggest taking a page out of the Patriot Guard's book for dealing with Phelps. When we are asked to shield a family from the protesters, we do so by forming a row with our backs to the picket line and ignoring them. I don't know what the net equivalent to reving motorcycle engines to drown out chants would be, but I can tell you that it works very well. These people want attention. Don't give it to them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
