Marine's dad ordered to pay protesters' court fees but says he won't

I found this amusing...

I knew you would but I was just responding to CA who brought up the issue and I was not attacking anyone which is what you do when you change the subject.............:2wave:
 
Just do not feed the troll please.

My one question is whether this is a standard for some one filing a losing lawsuit? If it is, I can at least kinda understand, though I still don't much like it. If not, then this is just sad.

This was not a losing lawsuit.

The father won his suit and on appeal it was overturned and then ordered to pay.

I don't think that happens as a matter of course.
 
Like a fishing license? Car insurance?

I know, I know. I can choose to not go fishing or drive my car. But you get my drift.
Myself, I'm as charitable as the next guy but I'm tired of paying for other people to have kid's and then paying for their kid's to eat and have health care. I'm not saying we should turn them away but if we gotta take care of 'em anyways, then take their premiums out of their tax return, that they usually get 100% of, back, anyways.

I'm all for lending a helping hand for those in need. But too many people mistake charity for entitlement. They think they are owed. Working the system IS their job. Government cheese sucks.


Yeah but with all respect its not the same as you said.......


There are people out there that legitimately need help and I to mad for helping them but there are a lot of people sucking at the government troughs that don't deserve it.........

redress is going to give me hell again for being off topic........I sure wish she had worked for me for a few days when we were in the Navy.....:)

Then why not force them to get off their ass or suffer refund deductions?

And those who legitimately need help, I begrudge them none of my tax dollar. I only wish I had more I could give.

If it was up to the current administration it would be worse........
 
The dad should have at least knocked a few of that a-hole's teeth out. THAT would have been worth the check.

I would have. He and his fanatic freakdom would spend the rest of their lives in fear were I closer to this.

What absolutely enrages me is that people will choose the politicilly correct stance of "I fight for your freedom to be stupid, but I don't have to like it." Well, **** that. We don't go abroad to fight religious freaks so that religious freaks in another religion at home can thrive. Foriegn and domestic is the oath.

I've a mind to frequent Marine funerals just to catch one of these pieces of ****.

And since people have pulled President Obama into this, he should stand up and do the right thing if he wants to truly project that he supports what his troops are doing for his office.

I don't even think it is fair to put it on the Religious Right. He is more likely part of the WTF I am a crazy ass that is stupid as hell club.
Except we have "moderate Christians" like Goshin who thinks that stalking and fake 9/11 calls aimed at harrassing businesses are "freedom of religion" (if you're a fundamentalist Christian - he doesn't think fundamentalist Muslims should have the same rights).
 
I support a constitutional amendment that freedom of speech does not apply to the Phelps family.

He's definitely a creature of the religious right..... He makes being a godless commie downright attractive!
You shouldn't equate this fukstick with any religion in good standing, this A-hole stands alone.

He has nothing to do with the religeous right...Jesus never advocated anything that he teaches.........

That is 100% on spot.

I suppose that fact also reminds me that I cannot paint Islam with such a broad brush as well. I cannot judge that whole religion on the miniscule percentage of suicide bombers.

It's that 911 thing, I suppose. I have hated all those bastards ever since. I suppose I should start working on that attitude, lest I be branded a hypocrite.

I have to quit equating jihadists to Islam. Just as I have to seperate the Phelps from Christianity.

I am a work in progress. Maybe god's not finished with me yet. :mrgreen:

This coming from the guy who loves to try and blame Cindy Sheehan on the left every chance he gets..........
 
But but but...

It's FREEDOM OF RELIGION so get over it!

/sarcasm

Actually it is more of a freedom of speech issue. It is usually Canadians and Eurotrash who support hate speech laws.

A lot of Liberals support hate speech to...If you don't believe me read moveon.org or the Huffington Post sometime.....
 
Well it sucks, but that's the court order. But if he's willing to take the fight higher up, then that's fine too. Personally, I ****ing hate that Phelps guy. But we don't have laws against stupid, nor would I endorse any.

I'm guessing he needs to appeal this decison to a jurisdiction not owned by the nazi assholes that run the Westboro Baptist Church.

He's even further right than you are, Navy. (If that is possible)

I believe you. I was just watching the topic of this thread on CNN and they basically taking about this like it is a hate speech issue. I believe the left will use this issue to push for hate speech laws since they can't do with with racism and anti-homosexuality in this country.

or farther left then you are and I did not think that was possible....There is a poll in the basement as to who is the most partisan person in DP and you almost got my vote but redress beat you out........

As I have told you more times than I can count ... I AM NOT A LEFTY. What part of that is so hard for you to understand?

You both prove my point, and prove that the point went over your head.
