That's what I keep thinking about. Like, his entire family (or at least the people involved heavily in that church) seem bat-shit insane. And dare I say that Shirley Phelps might be meaner and crazier than her dear old Dad? She seems especially vicious and knowing that she is an attorney and somehow made it through law school without someone saying, "Hey, maybe this one needs to be in a hospital and not a law school" is beyond me.

I wonder how much of this is about money for these people. Shirley Phelps has won at least one lawsuit and I read in a couple of places that alluded to her having files a great many lawsuits over the past years.
Here's a link to one:

This reminds of of the "merchandising" of the KKK. There was an expose on the Klan years ago and a guy went to the headquarters here in Arkansas and filmed their "merch" room and it was filled with t-shirts, propaganda, music, flags, even bobble-heads. The Klansan doing the interview didn't realize he was painting a picture of a group of people just out to sell merch to dumbass rednecks because he looked like he didn't even believe his own shit at a few points.
Interestingly, I went to look up the domain registrar for their website (which I wont post here because I sure as FUCK don't want that as one of our back links) and their website appears to be currently hosted by Black Lotus communications, which is a legit web host.
I do not do business with them but I am glad to see an article talking about how they donated the revenue from hosting the WBC websites to charity. That did, of course, come after Anonymous threatened a massive DDOS attack.

In Black Lotus's defense, they say they want to respect their client's freedom of expression which I can get behind. I just wonder how far that goes. Does it cover threats of violence? Does it cover encouraging someone to commit suicide?

Now Im going to be combing the net the rest of the day reading up on this. *snort*
