Oak Park High School 1, Westboro Baptist Church 0. In the video featured here, we see the bigots from Westboro Baptist Church protesting the recent election of a transgender girl as homecoming queen. But not long after these misguided Christians arrived at the school, carrying such signs as God Still Hates Fags, they were met by a counter-protest from students in support of Landon Patterson. The hate group, which is based in Kansas, has previously picketed a Taylor Swift concert (labeling the singer a “whore”) and even staged a rally at Robin Williams' funeral . But watch this awesome footage to see Church members driven away by students chanting “long live the queen!” in honor of their chosen homecoming representative. “This isn't just about supporting Landon, this is about supporting all our students,” Christina Palermo, an organizer for the rally, told a local news outlet. “Landon is just their scapegoat. They're attacking everyone in the LGBT community.”
Sunday night on Keeping Up With the Kardashians Season 9 Episode 18, Kourtney and Kim were abuzz over Khloe Kardashian’s “shady” behavior of late. She’s been hanging out with a rapper named French Montana – gasp – and even crazier than that, she hasn’t told her older sisters anything. Anything! Watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 9 Episode 18 Online Meanwhile, Khloe notices that Kris Jenner overwhelmed lately and has been neglecting some of her manager duties, showing up late and leaving early. It’s one thing to be a Momager who gets the job done and makes you filthy rich despite an utter lack of talent. It’s another to be one who sucks. Khloe is pretty steamed in particular about how, in a recent radio interview, she was asked questions about both French Montana and Lamar Odom . As Momager, Kris should’ve quashed that at the onset. Kim is also pissed at her mom for meddling with her assistant and finding out all of her wedding plans with Kanye, which were supposed to be top secret. The Momager also flips when Kim says she doesn’t bridal shower, and that’s the last straw for KIm, who vows to move in with Kourtney until she finds a new house. Kris, naturally, calls Kourtney’s house nonstop, voicing her disapproval. Later, they patch things up. Kris can still come to the wedding … just BUTT OUT! Later, Kim calls Khloe out on sneaking around with French Montana and her “friends” and giving her sisters the silent treatment, keeping them all in the dark. What the heck is she up to? 9 People Made Famous by the Kardashians 1. Jonathan Cheban Jonathan Cheban has been a publicist for years. But only by publicizing his friendship with the Kardashians has he become known. Several nights after that, Kim and Jonathan Cheban stake out a club they know Khloe will be going to because they want to catch the shady one in the act. With cameras. Staking out a club. Kim Kardashian. Sorry, but the scripted nature of what you see when you watch Keeping Up With the Kardashians online is full-on absurd sometimes. And it gets worse: They see Lamar Odom walking towards the club! When Khloe rolls up with French, Jonathan and Kim rush over to tell her the news. Cue shock and awe! Khloe doesn’t know what to do about this situation. Lamar ends up not coming inside the club, probably because he was filmed at different place or a different night we’re guessing which helps Khloe. Kim totally can sense that Khloe and French are dating and it makes her happy, while Khloe finds comfort in the fact that Kim totally had her back this whole time. Aww. And they all lived happily ever after in scripted, wealthy bliss that was all made possible by the Kim Kardashian sex tape all those years ago. Just saying. That’s what started it. 19 Worst Kim Kardashian Photos! 1. Kim Kardashian Krying Kim gets her ugly cry on. It’s definitely not her best look.
When Robin Williams died unexpectedly last week, the outpouring of emotion from the beloved actor’s millions of fans was unlike anything the Internet has seen in recent years. Robin Williams: His Most Memorable Roles 1. Mork (Mork & Mindy) The role that started it all. Robin Williams starred as an alien on the late 1970s sitcom Mork & Mindy. Horrible as it was to learn that the world had lost such a kind and gifted man, the near universal reverence for Williams made for a welcome silver lining. The flood of fond memories from admirers of all ages was a refreshing change from the bitter divisiveness that usually characterizes online comment boards. So naturally, the folks at the Westboro Baptist Church took one look at all this genuine affection and figured out a way to make it all about hate. Yes, the horrible bigots who celebrated the death of Cory Monteith and encouraged his girlfriend Lea Michele to kill herself are up to their old tricks. The picket-happy fundamentalists announced over the weekend that they plan to protest Williams’ funeral as a result of his portrayal of a gay man in the 1996 film The Birdcage . Plans for Williams’ funeral have not yet been announced, but a recent message on the WBC’s official Twitter page reads: “Westboro Baptist Church Hopes To Preach In Lawful Proximity To Robin Williams’ Funeral – To Warn The Living: Repent Or Likewise Perish.” Fortunately, a non-profit organization called Planting Peace has decided to counteract the astonishing negativity of the WBC protest with a fund-raising campaign. Their efforts will benefit one of Robin’s favorite charities, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. So even in death, Robin is making life better for people in need. Looks like the score is Comedy 1, Hate 0. 21 Memorable Robin Williams Quotes 1. That You May Contribute a Verse What will YOUR verse be?
The leader of the most ridiculous families and/or organizations and/or churches because it was a tax shelter for his insanity, that have pretty much ever existed is the Westboro Baptist church, who hated gay people, and America for alloying Gay people to exist, and in turn protested outside countless funerals, for soldiers and even Sandy Hook school shooting. They are pretty much the worst fucking people, they still exist, but their leader is dead…now it’d be nice to take out the rest of these uneducated, misinformed, pieces of shit.
Setting up a lemonade stand for peace is one way to protest the Westboro Baptist Church. Holding a rally in which gay couples kiss over the grave of the founder’s mother is another. And that’s exactly what went down on July 14 when the Satanic Temple – an organization that looks to foster “benevolence and empathy” among all individuals – took members to the very cemetery in which Catherine Idalette Johnston is buried. She’s the parent of WBC founder Fred Phelps Jr. Leaning over her grave, members of the same-sex then smooched each other on the lips. “Upon completion of the pink mass ceremony, Catherine Johnston is now gay in the afterlife,” reads the Satanic Temple website, triumphantly. “Fred Phelps is obligated to believe that his mother is now gay.” “If beliefs are inviolable rights, nobody has the right to challenge our right to believe that Fred Phelps believes that his mother is now gay.” Moreover, at one point, Temple spokesman Lucien Greaves placed his exposed penis on Johnston headstone. The temple has asked same-sex couples around the globe to follow its leads; visit the grave; and perform their own pink masses in order to send the WBC a message. They may have had it coming. Earlier this week, that church expressed joy over Cory Monteith’s death and said it hopes Lea Michele kills herself .
The making of White House Down is responsible for the making of Channing All Over Your Tatum . So the movie has clearly already paid off. But is the blockbuster, which hits theaters today, worthy of your time and money? Critics from around the country weigh in below… White House Down is the kind of celebration of rampant mayhem in which everyone seems to have a rocket launcher — or at least a live hand grenade — at the ready, just in case they need to dispatch a scrum of exceptionally vile and cruel villains. – The Washington Post As demented and entertaining as promised, and a little less idiotic than feared. – The New York Times Each nutty scenario is surpassed by the next, ludicrous story lines coalesce with expert orchestration, and absurd details return with perfect timing to build to a crescendo of hilarity. – The Boston Globe It’s a blatant attempt for the director to revive his box office fortunes by blowing up parts of the White House Complex as gaudily as he did 18 years ago. – The Orange County Register If you have to chose just one White House under attack movie, the wise choice would be to spend your money on Olympus Has Fallen. – About.com
Taylor Swift is beloved by millions, but to the Westboro Baptist Church, this is emblematic of the fact that our society is going straight to … you know. “This girl is a whore,” Ben Phelps, the leader of group said in announcing the WBC’s plan to protest her August 3 concert in Kansas City, Missouri. The WBC called Taylor “the whorish face of doomed America” in a press release, and Phelps explains, “She’s widely loved. She’s got huge approval ratings.” “What she’s famous for is hopping around from one bed from another. This girl is a whore. Who else is gonna say that if it’s not the church of the Lord Jesus?” Imagine if this guy saw Miley Cyrus Twerking . When Taylor Swift stops in Kansas City, not far from Westboro Baptist Church’s Topeka, Ks., headquarters, they’re going to let her know how they feel. “She’s coming into our backyard,” Phelps said. So we’re gonna go preach to her. Taylor tries to pretend that she’s a good Christian. But she’s not. “When she has a huge platform like that, a huge influence on young women, she’s got a duty to tell about God’s standards. And she has absolutely failed.” Citing her “immodest, vulgar appearance” and “serial fornication,” Phelps wants her to “promote the standards of God instead of whoredom, fornication … that filthy lifestyle.” Immodest appearance? She has been showing off some curves lately (see above, who knew?!), but calling that vulgar may be a tiny bit of a stretch. All depends on your perspective, we suppose. And Phelps’ is that of disgust: “Taylor Swift uses talent God gave her to warble about fornication,” he says. “One simple tweet from her: ‘Stop fornicating ladies, and obey God’ would rock the house. But it would cost her millions she makes with her sin-coddling songs.” Until she changes her sinful ways , he says, expect backlash. How big of a backlash? Phelps says Taylor Swift can expect at least 15 people, but he insists he’s not worried about the turnout, but the principle. “It’s not about the numbers,” he says. “It’s about getting a message out.” “We’re concerned about putting the standard of God out there. Especially when you have a person like this who is inexplicably loved and revered.” “She’s a whore! I mean, come on.” The irony is that while Swift has dated a lot, she’s also rumored to be a chaste prude who is concerned about setting an example and does NOT fornicate much if at all. Are we right? Or wrong? You tell us in the survey below: Is Taylor Swift a whore, as the WBC contends? NO! She’s actually a good role model for a celebrity! I wouldn’t say “whore” but she could improve her image. Yes. Girl fornicates non-stop and uses her talent to promote sin. View Poll »
The Westboro Baptist Church is drawing a link between Monday’s devastating Oklahoma tornado and NBA star Kevin Durant’s support for Jason Collins. After Collins came out as gay in SI this spring, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Durant was one of many players to praise his courage and offer support. According to the WBC, OKC is now paying the price. Fred Phelps Jr., the son of Westboro Baptist Church minister Fred Phelps and the brother of Shirley Phelps-Roper , tweeted the following messages: “OK Thunder’s Durant flips God by praising fag Collins. God smashes OK. You do the math. #FearGod #GodH8sFags #FagsDoomNations #GodH8sU” “God’s wonderful wrath in Oklahoma reminds me: #GodCursesUForFagMarriage #GodIsYourTerrorist #GodWillRepay #GodH8sU #GodAvengesHisPeople” Pretty awful, but not unexpected from a group that has picketed funerals of slain veterans, Sandy Hook students, and Boston bombing victims. Those aren’t the only cases, nor will they be the last. Any tragedy they can exploit and pin on increased tolerance of homosexuals, the WBC is on it! Sadly, in this situation, they’re not alone in their attempt to blame a natural disaster to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. In 2012, chaplain John McTernan linked Hurricane Sandy and other natural disasters to U.S. President Barack Obama’s backing of marriage equality. McTernan similarly linked Hurricane Isaac with the LGBT community, pointing to the fact that the storm coincided with New Orleans’ “Gay Mardi Gras.”
