Yeah, I'm you all, I think. Let's not act the way he did.

On his shell he holds the earth.
Apparently he's not having a funeral. Apparently his church doesn't "worship the dead."
This was George Takei's quote on FB: "Today, Mr. Phelps may have learned that God, in fact, hates no one. Vicious and hate-filled as he was, may his soul find the kind of peace through death that was so plainly elusive during his life." And something a friend who belongs to the LGBT community posted a few days ago when it became clear Phelps's death was iminent: "... I think if any public response is warranted, it would be hundreds, thousands of LGBT+ people descending upon Topeka carrying signs saying 'Thank you, Fred.' He is a despicable person who lived a hateful life, but it can honestly be said that, ultimately, he helped us much more than he harmed us." I have to applaud both these sentiments.
I hope at the end he had a change of heart. I know, I know. But people DO change, sometimes. They do.

I used to feel relieved when someone like him died because there was one less hater in the world. Sadly, I've learned there's always a new idiot standing ready to fill their spot.

Yes, several.
Turn the other cheek.

Which cheek?
From what I have read his family sounds just as bad.
This is the first time that I ever read obit news on the SKMB without a "R.I.P."
yup. yup.

The daughter said there will be no funeral. Seems the guy was psychic as well as a a-hole!
I agree. I even have trouble writing this, because I don't want such a wreck of the psyche to occupy more than a few seconds of my time. Like a jerk who cuts you off in traffic, best forgotten and don't let the malicious ones in the world run your mood for you.
I will admit that the first thought I had upon seeing the news was, "Well, if there is a Hell, welcome to it, Fred."
I'm done now.
......suffice it to say, though hate never dies-one of it's Champions has....praise Gawd!....
I love how Russell Brand handled two members of Westboro......
Shakespeare comes to mind: Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage:and then is heard no more: It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Good riddance, and to members of his cult (and estranged children) may you heal and know love.

Shakespeare says true. Thank you for that.
...I know it shouldn't, am well aware of the fact that hate should not begat hate...but in the instance of this piece of shi*t and his followers, I will make an exception....to pervert a funeral-especially of the honored military, is the lowest of the low and to spew the type of hatred they did, I find darkly humorous-which God were they serving?????...enjoy stoking the furnace you SOB....
"Rev. Phelps said he first began anti-gay demonstrations in 1991 after one of his grandsons was propositioned at Topeka’s Gage Park"
Why is it ... scary things happen at Gage Park ???
and be a happy choo choo train until the day I die ....
Well ... the train is still there, but Mr. Phelps won't be spewing any more venom ...
