It would be really awesome if a bunch of gay bikers showed up and kicked the shit out of them and actually broke their backs.

The actual funeral is going to be here in Australia. Apparently there'll be a memorial service in the US. I highly doubt there'll be protesters at his funeral here.

There's a fair chance there'll be gay bikers though

1) Fred Phelps and his "Church" are an abomination in the sight of God and Man.

2) I admire a lot of talented people, and mourn their passing. Often it is actors/actresses/musicians and other creative people. This is because the pleasure derived from their efforts is, for me, a thing apart and above the baseline of the deaths of other humans. This isn't because everyone else's life is less valuable, productive or important than that of a famous person. It is simply because I wasn't actively aware of that person's contributions to the All.

I acknowledge people who make an impact on my consciousness. Sometimes, those people aren't famous. The bottom line is, before I can acknowledge someone's passing, I do, at a minimum, need to be actively aware of them and what they were about.

I heard that it may in fact have been natural causes.
I hope so in that it may mean slightly less pain for those who loved him, and because it will probably piss off the WBC.

Flint · 01-28-2008, 08:59 AM

It bothers me that I'm supposed to care about this. I'll just leave it at that.

Flint - I bet you don't watch many of those "Entertainment" shows on TV either. Me neither. They glorify these people and make the public privvy to every minute detail in their lives. It makes some people feel "connected" to them and some think they actually knew them..... WHICH THEY DON'T!

Since we had this lovely quasi journalist in another thread relating to Australians, I thought you might like to see her in action with Mr Phelps. I actually saw the interview on tv and was amazed that Mr Phelps could go on Australian tv and make some of the stupid statements he did. Anyway, enjoy.

WBC won't care *how* he died. They're just happy he's dead so they can thank God for dead actors who portrayed sympathetic homosexual cowboys.
