Dio Memorial, Westboro Baptist Church protest pics

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

God hates "fag enablers"?

How does one "enable" a "fag"? Buy him a Shirley Bassey CD and a jar of Vaseline? I need to know.

From what I understand, Westboro are quite regularly outnumbered by counter-demonstrations these days 8)

By not burning him in hell.

I think that Westboro dogma is that by becoming slightly less anti-gay over the years, the USA is "enabling" "fags".

Although I try not to dig too deeply into it. Frankly anyone that homophobic is probably so far into the closet that they're in f**king Narnia.

Not that there would be anything wrong with it, but Dio wasn't even gay, was he?

In the meantime I googled who these people are. Markfiend was right about their agenda :eek:

this was not my intention, I just saw these via a link and after watching some tributes from close friends and his son, I thought it would be a laff to post the pics, lighten up - Thor Will KIll Your God In Muslim Hell is a great comeback to these idiots :lol:

I don't want to put words in Andrew's mouth but I think it's the "small" comment that he is :? -ing at, not the actual thread. WTF has being wee got to do with being gay, after all?

I was refering to the poster in the photo 'Gnomes hate WBC' and being that Dio was quite a small chap thought it was quite funny

I thought he was referring to the sign someone holds on one of the pictures. None of those slogans have anything to do with anything in the real world! (I think...)

I'm not even sure who are the religious fanatics and who are the protesters because I can't make any sense of any of it :wink:

It sure says a lot about today's media society that a hundred-something people group (most of which knew each other before) with more in common with Beavis&Butthead or some temporary student drinking club than any "church" are so well-known that you can say "Westboro" and people know immediately what you're talking about, all over the planet :urff:
