WBC Met By 300 Patriotic Bikers in Joplin


http://www.politicususa.com/en/bikers-westboro-baptist

The SPLC describes the Westboro Baptist Church as, “Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) is arguably the most obnoxious and rabid hate group in America. The group is basically a family-based cult of personality built around its patriarch, Fred Phelps. Typified by its slogan, “God Hates Fags,” WBC is known for its harsh anti-gay beliefs and the crude signs its members carry at their frequent protests. WBC’s theology is “Primitive Baptist,” a doctrine that holds that God chooses a few elect humans to save, but will send everybody else to hell.”
Bikers are tough and many are also very patriotic. These 300 bikers were not about to let WBC ruin the Joplin memorial. Once some bikers and truckers got word that Westboro Baptist was coming into town, they converged in Joplin yesterday, and pinned down the hate cult until the memorial was over.
The last thing the people of Joplin needed was the WBC, and some great Americans made sure that Joplin got their moment of mourning and healing.
Patriotism doesn’t have a look, race, gender, or partisan affiliation, and the story out of Joplin proves once again that you should never judge a book by its cover.
When the people of Joplin needed help, 300 bikers were there. In my mind anyone who challenges the hate of WBC qualifies as a patriot.

  1. Bikers 1; WBC Nil. In your face, WBC!

    Just discovered your blog today. Thanks for spreading the word about this pathetic bunch. I've been hearing about them on and off the last few years, and each time I'm just flabbergasted that there are people out there who embrace this level of hatred. It's mind-boggling. I mean, I can't even fathom what kind of brain produces such foul, loathsome behavior. I hope that wherever they go, they are continually met by a tide of people who stand up against the bigotry and just plain idiocy shown by every member of the WBC.

    God bless Joplin!
