This is where my DD works! Pictures Post # 80

[rosiep]

The Rev. Fred Phelps' people from the Westboro Bapstist Church (the “God Hate’s Fags” people) are planning a protest on Monday morning (7:30am), November 24, at the corner of 13th and SW Market. They will be protesting PSU’s Queer Resource Center and, specifically, the concept of gender neutral bathrooms.

They refer to PSU on their web site:

If you scroll down to 11/24, you'll see it on there.

PSU is planning a counter protest and I plan to be there for my daughter. Please keep us in your thoughts and pray that there is no violence.

Be safe Rosie. Be strong. We'll be with you in spirit. Stay strong!

Yikes, what is wrong with people? I won't even click on the web site because I don't want them to be excited that they are getting so many hits. It makes me so sad to see that there are people like this in the world.

 

[jeanigor]

Thanks Rosie. For showing them who good people are.

 

[wallyb]

Rosie!
Don't do this if it's going to potently get violent!
Think about ME for gaaaawd sakes!
Who will be my foil on the DIS?
What about Wally?

Rosie.

Be careful. This group has a ton of lawyers, and love, I mean LOVE to sue. Ingnoring them is the best way!

 

[DVC~OKW~96]

Oh geez, Rosie. All good advice.

Imagine if they had a hate demonstration and it went totally ignored...

 

[wallyb]

Well no... your just mean.

 

[rpmdfw]

Well no... your just mean.

I'm not mean, I'm playful!

 

[mickeyfan1]

Rosie, please do be careful. The best way to treat the a holes is to turn your backs, a show of force, side by side, backs turned to them, they really only want attention.

I won't click either, I have no desire to make them think they are getting any more attention.

Stay Safe!

Wally, if you really want foil, step over to the CB, there are plenty of people posting there with foil hats, maybe they will share.

I don't know about that, Wally is tame compared to a lot of them.

I don't know about that, Wally is tame compared to a lot of them.

Maybe if he posted over there when he's in one of his "Sunshine & Rainbows Wallyana" phases . . . . .

Boys, boys...I promise I'll take excellent care. After all it's MY job to harass Wally.

In all seriousness though..you guys know I will be wherever my daughter is on Monday.

Just remember, these are mean nasty people. There was a thread on the CB a while back on the same subject. These people will go out of their way to get YOU arrested, to drag YOU into a lawsuit! They know just how far they can go so that THEY dont get in trouble! They are very good at what they do!

Now go get em, and take pics for us!

Thanks Mike. I hope that the Queer Resource Center decides to ignore them. They're meeting on Friday with several groups (Basic Rights Oregon, the PSU security, Q Center) to discuss a plan of action. I'm hoping they decide to stage a quiet rebuttal AFTER this obnoxious hate mongers leave.

My thoughts will be with you. You're such an awesome mom!!
As others have said, your presence is important there for sure, but your best bet is to go perhaps with signs of a more positive nature...to counter the hateful signs and words they will be using. And the most important advice of all is to try to remain calm and silent to their taunting. No matter what hateful things they say, counter it with a quiet, peaceful smile. The last thing you want to do is get into a shouting match with them. You're not likely to change their hateful minds anyhow, and you'll just end up looking as mean and hateful as they are.

Good luck, and again, you're an awesome mom!!!

I saw a very disturbing documentary on him this summer, I had never heard of him...VERY scary group of people. They THRIVE on this stuff, they want confrontation, be careful. I do have this to say. My ex is an evangelist, so I have an undertanding of these kinds of people. With that said, I have ONE thing I always say, and they can't dispute it. How many times does Jesus, the son of God, pure, perfect, right? How many times does HE mention homosexuality in the bible? Guess....33 years of ministry, he NEVER mentions it. DO you think he forgot, he was too busy? I think, if he knew, he only had 33 years to get across his message, knowing everything he says will be forever talked about...it wasn't an oversite. I personally believe, since he never mentions it, it's not a big deal. I have peace about it...nuff said!
