Organize a counter protest, write your local senator and representative.

I wish, too bad I'm not in a more depressed phase of my life, didn't care about my future, and owned one of these weapons. as much as I hope someone else does this, I am asking for slightly less illegal options

it's already happening, I'm going to be there.

Well, if you change your mind, aim for the kneecaps and/or testicles. God sent the bullet.  :nod:  :doubt:

If not, Flipside's idea seems sound.

Dude...

Go Schwarzkopf on those bastards: get a couple of friends with large trucks, mount some heavy-duty speakers to the roofs, and blast Metallica at them all day long. Stuff from Master of Puppets or Ride the Lightening would go perfectly.

*EDIT: Oh, don't forget about Kill 'Em All.

That makes me sick.

I hate what some religions can do to some people. Honestly. A man is dead. And they're protesting.

I don't ****ing get it.

Their chickens will come home to roost anyway, none of them are going to live forever, and Fred's funeral is probably going to be surrounded by a vast party with 'God hates WBC' signs everywhere.

Might be a bit too untowardly to have an HLP Topeka, though.  :nervous:

I only have till tomorrow, so unfortunately I do not have time to get my stereo souped up and loop At The Gay Bar all day.

Go to the entrance of the church dressed like a homeless person and ask for help, then see what they do about it.
If they respond correctly and indeed help you, go to the street and pick up as many homeless people as you can and send them their way, not all at once, just a few today, and repeat tomorrow.

This way they will be doing something good, to counter the something bad that's about to be done.
Flaming them will not help, kicking them out will not help either... I guess they are what you'd call a "resolved people", they choose that belief because of your resistance and they are actually counting on you and everyone else to be against them, don't ask me why is that :P

Edit note: I'm not familiar with westboro church, such a thing does not exist round here, I'm just basically applying people relations knowledge to this.

You'll find a large number of vets who ride.  See if any of your local riding groups (motorcycle, not ten speed) are going to be there.  I know that a lot of the groups have been acting as a sort of security force and creating a human barricade between the idiots and the families.  I can only think of my mother had something happened to myslef or my brother while we were serving in the military, to think of my mother if people like this were doing this bullsh!t....it angers me.

There's a 50/50 chance they won't actually show up. Many of the times they announce their intent they don't. And then sue you for saying they didn't.

Seriously though, the reason some things are done in such a standard way is because it works.

You know that attention is what they want, right? They feed on it. The more hate they get, the more you'll see of them. If people didn't organize counter-protests and people didn't throw stuff at them and call them mean names, you'd see a lot less of them.

Basically, they want you to come.

Wait a second...  :doubt:

This, and add some Sabaton songs to the repertoire (Burn Your Crosses is essential, of course).  :)
Play it long enough (and interchange with "Reign of Terror", which has a couple of earthshaking riffs) and the church will collapse.  :)

you both fail at metal. blast judas priest and gaahl-era gorgoroth. you really need bands fronted by gay people to be the most effective in this situation.

cant forget The God That Failed of the metallica/black album

edit

The unforgiven II would be tempting for the chorus but musically it dont have the building shaking effect you want.  looking through my play list Holier Than Thou is perfect for this
