Do you support Fred Phelps?

Not only do I not support him, but he has made me reconsider my stance on free speech. You may hate the war and hate our president but I do not feel that anybody has the right to protest, disrupt and spew hate at a solders funeral. They are our sons and daughters serving us, so that we can go about our daily lives. They follow the orders of our government and lay down their lives on our behalf. It is not there fault that the war may be wrong, they are doing what they believe has to be done. Right or wrong, they are serving us. If we change our leaders and told them to come home they would, If we told them to charge he11 with a bucket of water, they would do that too.\n\nIf Fred showed up at my sons funeral, I would personally walk up and shoot him in the mouth and then do the same to his fascist daughter as well.\n\nThe more of these right and left wing wack jobs that pop up, the more in favor of limits to free speech I become, and that's not good!

No, I'm a liberal and an ACLU member and I am rooting for Americans. Just because someone does not agree with you does not mean that person does not love his or her country.

I do. I think he should be an inspiration to everyone. He did a lot to help people. He chose to help people through non violence ways. He is something we should all strive to achieve to be like.......

As a proud American citisen, I 100% support there legal right to do it, if it is on public property. But let me tell you, if it was a family member/friend/anybody I knew, the minute any protestor (be it peace/war/gay/holy-roller) step one hair across my property line without my permission, thier carcas is mine! I belive strongly in free speach, so on public property, as much as I'd like to rip thier damn sighs right out of thier hands, and break it over thier heads, I do not, because I actualy do belive in gay rights (even though I am not gay, I support freedom, unlike some), and most importantly I belive in free speach FOR ALL, no matter how much they pi$$ me off. If they did this at a funeral that I was in attendance, I would use my freedom of speach to chant inflamitory remarks, and mock the protestors. Also, if they approached me, or somone else to where I thought they/me were threatened, I would not hesitate to draw my 45cal in the name of self defense, and make a citisens arrest (I am a strong believer in vigilante justicE). As for cursing in public, I could care less as long as I can curse back at the M****r F*****s (I can proudly hold my own in a cursing match, and have a very loud voice). I hate (scratch that, Royaly Dispise) anybody that has/is/will use a funeral for ANY kind of protest, even if I agree with what they're protesting, but like I said, I hold back my hatred on public property, but the minute they cross onto my property I will shoot to kill (once again, weather I agree, or dissagree with them)...\n\n...and this is coming from a fiscaly conservative, social liberal (independant, pro gay rights, anti IRAQ war, not anti Afghanistan war, anti Bush/Bushite)...\nCan you even begin to imagine how mad/dangerous I would be if I were some right-stealing republican/right-winger/"conservative"/holy-roller/(you get the idea) or If I were a democrat/left-winger/"liberal/baby-killer/(you get the idea).\n\n\nBottom line...\nPeople on both sides get me so pi$$ed off, and either side (the demoncraps or retardicans) will object to (or promote) free speach when it is convienient for them (agrees with them), it is unAmerican, and makes me sick.\n\nI am for these individules legal rights to protest/curse/whatever on private property for any reason, at any time, however to do so at somones funeral (one of our great, fallen american heroes, none the less), is dispicable, and should be looked down on by society with great hatred\n\nBesides isn't it irony that they be so rude to those who who died so that they could be so rude? I'm sure it really helps whatever cause they're protesting (sarcasm).\n\nJust because you CAN, doesn't mean you SHOULD\n\nIt's like burning the American flag on american soil (I support peoples rights to do this as well, even though I find it sickening), isn't it ironic that they burn the flag of a nation, that allows them to burn the flag (irony? ANYBODY), and also the same country of which they are most likely citisens? Try doing that in Iran, with the Iranian flag, SEE WHAT HAPPENS! in the end, that is what makes America great, that we are free to do as we please, no matter how stupid it is, and I say we should have a counter protest (an even louder/more obsene one) against the dirt-bags that would dare to protest at ANYBODY'S funeral for ANY reason.\n\nMay the government of, by, and for itself be torn down, and destroyed... and the government of, by, and for the people rise again!\n\nGod bless the REAL America!

Rush Limbaugh is a paid propagandist admitted by his own mouth right after the Nov 7th elections. I don't hate anyone, but I do have the right to support people that I believe in, Rush Limbaugh isn't one of them.

No.  I would support discrimination based on not fitting in.  I don't care if it is national origin, race, ethnic background, religious beliefs, gender bending, what the hell ever.\n\nI have never had a problem working with people because of their origin, beliefs, or gender alignment.  And I mean queerer than a $3 bill.  I had a boss that was.  I enjoyed working for him.\n\nIf they don't fit with the team though, they are less than useless.\n\nCount my vote as a yes and no...

Mr. Davis is a man who has worked hard, against many obstacles, to build and support his ability.  Undeniably, there is tension between him and the US skating team and hierarchy.  I have no idea the source of this tension, but he has had to train on his own and secure his own sponsors because of how he has felt.\nI am proud of him as a fellow American and a fellow Chicagoan.  That he is black and I am white does not diminish this in the least.  As long as he does not bad-mouth our country, I would continue to support him and wish him well.\nGo USA!

About the only people who agree with Phelps are the people in his church, which happen to be mostly family members.  At most of his protests, there are less than a hundred people.  By contrast, the Patriot Guard Riders, a group opposed to his crap and tactics, typically have several hundred show up at his protests to support military families.   Phelps is in the same category as Jim Jones, Heavens Gate, and the rest of those wacko frootloops...just another stupid little cult with radical ideas.

Yes, I am proud to say that I have donated to the ACLU.\n\nAnd no, I have not donated to NAMBLA, nor did the ACLU donate to NAMBLA. Read the actual case, not the canned headlines.\n\nThe law in question would have forced them to take down their website, which did not actually advocate any illegal activity. As sick as NAMBLA's goals might be, they -- like everyone else -- are entitled to the same legal protections for actions which are legal. Their website was not illegal, and did not actually advocate illegal activity (even if other parts of the group did). So the law in question was unconstitutional.\n\nIt's easy to claim that we have freedoms if nobody ever attempts to use them. It's when you see someone that you hate, saying something that makes you sick, that those freedoms are at risk. If the govt can silence someone, just because the majority doesn't like what they say, then we don't have freedom of speech.\n\nThe ACLU defends the rights of anyone to speak, no matter how unpleasant the message, as long as its legal. And while I may not like the message that's being protected, I cherish the rights of free speech that allow that message to be spoken.\n\nAnd I'm proud to support a group that fights for everyone's rights, even when some of the people exercising those rights are unpopular.

It is possible to support the "President" and Not support bush the man.\nIn a way we all support the President of the United States\n(except those extreme left wing nut jobs who even Liberals like myself hate)\nIts g. bush the man who needs to be called to task. bush failed his country and as good Americans it is our duty to point this out.

I feel that he is trying his best for all the chaos that he is facing since begining of his presidency. We should support him, anyway he won the election that means most American chose him to run this country. I am not Bush supporter but I believe that we should support whoever run our country at this moment.

I support our President, whether I voted for him or not.  \n\nI wish people would keep in mind that you don't have to agree with someones decisions to support them.  We already look like idiots to the rest of the world, but the more we fight with eachother, the worse we look.\n\nI don't agree with a lot of what our President has done, but without the support of the people we look like a bunch of crybabies who would rather blame someone than take an honest look at how hard the questions are that he has to answer.\n\nKeep in mind, he may be a dullard, but he's our dullard.  Oh, and yes I did vote for him and I consider myself a fiscal conservative and a social libertarian.
