Fred Phelps

It's everything to do with highlighting to those remaining Phelps/WBB extremist media whores that no matter your religious beliefs you should not ram them down people's throats at all, let alone at times of grief and suffering.

 

In their case their propensity to behave in that manner indicates that they do not have a problem with doing so, so have no right to feel aggrieved if their own modus operandi is enacted upon them.

 

The desired outcome would be to stop their behaviour. Unfortunately given they are ultimately only looking for media attention that may be unlikely. From the little that I know there are already big cracks appearing amongst their ranks.

 

I get what you were trying to do, but it's self-defeating. You'd be doing the very thing you vilify that hateful church for. The better thing to do is ignore them entirely (Or Waco their compound.. better to apologise than to ask permission).
