HOLY FUCKING HELL.

I would have thought this shit was one of your typical internet hoaxes, but for the fact that I followed a Google news link to it, after my mother told me about seeing it on the morning news. These sick slimebags protest military funerals. They also have a lovely little "Memorials" column listing things like
"Matthew Shepard has been in hell for 2717 days.
Diane Whipple has been in hell for 1880 days."
This is when you start to understand why the "apocalypse" concept is appealing.
Short of four horsemen (or an asteroid, nuclear war, supernova, etc.) you can always bitch at them.
See below for polite, well reasoned shredding of a few choice beliefs as described in their FAQ.

You ask people writing in to your site to keep from sending harassing emails, to not ask the same "ignorant" questions over and over - so why do you still protest military funerals? This smacks of hypocrisy. You have no problems with rubbing your controversial remarks in the faces of those who are already in mourning. But you won't deign to deal with emails of people who are sincerely inquiring as to why you think the way you do?
My main question regards your stance on the military. Your assertion that all military personnel "are lazy, incompetent idiots looking for jobs because they're not qualified for honest work" is made preposterous by the existence of ROTC programs and military academies which accept only the brightest college students. There are multitudes of people who serve in the military because they believe in patriotism - a patriotism based on the ideals of the Constitution, not those of Hollywood. Do you feel that, as these men are largely not homosexuals, and also do not fit the stereotypes you cast them in, that they deserve your respect? They were created equal, along with you, by God. And since you have no discrimination in which funerals you picket, shouldn't you cease this?
Thank you for your time.
