Westboro Baptist Church to picket Norway funerals
http://www.godhatesfags.com/fliers/20110731_Norway-Must-Repent-Or-Perish.pdf





OK so now we have Glenn Beck calling them hitler youth, the jerusalem post saying they were a terror camp, and now these freaks will show up.

I will be surprised if they actually come to Norway to do that. But people over here don't know who they are, so i seriously doubt they will be welcomed.

1. Someday, these fuckers are going to push it a little too far, and someone will shoot them dead.
When that happens, I'm going to kick back and have a rum and coke to celebrate.

7. They cause so much pain
I don't condone violence but I sure wish the heck we could kick them out of the country.

47. Energizes? It finances them.
Hey make a living pissing people off and dyeing them when they push back. The freedomriders has the right idea - bury them in exhaust fumes and sound.

2. They won't be allowed into the country
And if the United States had its head screwed on right, they wouldn't be allowed to return here.

20. Norway can and should deny them an entry visa because their intended
reason for coming is to cause individual mourning Norwegians mental anguish.

24. Entry visa? Since Norway is part of the Schengen Area
The crazies can arrive at any bordering country and drive right in.

for tourist or business purposes without a visa.

34. Good point, though I still think Norway can prevent them from making a fuss.
Hate speech laws probably apply.

16. That reminds me of a crazy story from a few years back...
There was a guy who worked in the UK's equivalent of immigration and customs enforcement. His wife, who he didn't like that much, went home to Pakistan to visit her family. And while she was there, he entered her name onto the terrorist watch list. So upon trying to return, she was told she couldn't--and he left her there for THREE YEARS.

He ended up getting fired after his next promotion came due, and someone noticed that his wife was a suspected terrorist. So he had the option of either getting fired for being a security risk, or confessing and getting fired.

As long as they don't create a ruckus at the airport.. But maybe the US embassy will give warning.

36. Yes, they need a visa and Norway is not crazy enough to give it to
one of the kind of churches that caused this in the first place.

8. how do they fund themselves?
I seriously doubt they are stupid enough to do this - but if they are - where do they keep coming up with enough money to pay for their travel and food, etc.?

They get it from suing people who they work hard to piss off. It's their business model.

almost all of them are lawyers and whenever someone messes with them they sue the municipality and or police dept where it happened and win.

43. neato. Go offend a grieving community - and look for ways to sue
the same community to fund the trips to offend new grieving communities. Parasites.

of idiots? We in the US do not seem to have any way of controlling them when they go to funerals.That is we cannot keep them away.

42. Hard to say, i doubt they'll actually show up. People dont know who they are
so there will be a lot of bemusement i imagine. But i seriously doubt they will be allowed to picket a funeral. They will

a) be beaten up
b) taken by police

31. these people are sociopaths
I don't see you on the schedule right now. Seems like Kansas, Texas, Missouri and Florida are targets.
They are a wealthy family because many of them are lawyers. The father started as one but lost his license. Hate sells in this country. But it doesn't in yours. If they do come they won't be tolerated I'm sure. Apologies from here. They're disgusting

33. No way will they try to go to Norway
The fact that we're talking about it is all the "win" they hope to get out of announcing their cockamamie threat. They routinely claim they'll protest and fail to show; they did that a few years ago at our school when we were staging a play related to Matthew Shepard.

It would probably be a good thing if they went and made a vocal show of support for the murderer. Then maybe they could get their little inbred cult on a terrorist watch list...

They are all lawyers and if anyone screws with them on their little "protests" they sue the municipality and police dept. and usually win.

50. News in Norway are reporting. Oslo Police: "That's probably the worst idea in the world right now"
http://www.nrk.no/nyheter/verden/1.7734694

- Normal thinking human beings do not think like that. I don't think they deserve attention. These statements confirm that that human being is the worlds most complex construction. This is beyond any reason and we have a hard time relating to it.

- The police must take all threats seriously, but this one is hard to take seriously. We will handle it if something materializes.
