Outrageous...any of you wingnuts happy with this decision? Care to defend Phelps and these pigs?
You've tried to justify everything else, including the OKC bombing. So, I'm sure this shouldn't be too much of a stretch..
Quote:
Lawyers for the father of a Marine who died in Iraq say a court has ordered him to pay legal costs for the anti-gay protesters who picketed his son's funeral. The protesters are led by Fred Phelps of Westboro Baptist Church. Albert Snyder of York, Pa., had won a $5 million verdict against Phelps, but it was thrown out on appeal.
On Friday, the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in Maryland ordered Snyder to pay the costs of Phelps' appeal.
I'd send something but I wouldn't want it to go to these FundiMENTAList Morons, this guy needs to declare bankruptcy so they get nothing. Bteween this and the FundiMENTAList Militia out to kill Policemen the Right is doing themselves Proud. Perhaps they can afford to have Sarah Palin come speak for them
Ok, I'm confused. There's not enough information in this story. I actually had to read it three times just to sync up with the limited information provided. So how is this a right or left issue? I can't even say that its unfair that the father is being asked to pay for this protesters legal fee. What is unfortunate is that the man chose to do something as dispicable as to picket a funeral.

The people of Westboro BC are scum - if this father asks for help, send him all you can.
The messages from Westboro Baptist Church are sickening, but I think that free speech is more important than protecting the feelings of those who are offended by their messages. If the protesters are in a public place and they're not putting the public in danger, I think they have a right to be there and say whatever they want.
