Westboro Church Fail to get Protesters to the Show on Time
A threatened mass protest by an anti-gay US church failed to materialise when only one demonstrator turned up. Fred Phelps and his daughter Shirley Phelps-Roper from the Westboro Baptist Church were banned from entering the UK to protest against a play in Hampshire. They had urged a picket of Queen Mary's College in Basingstoke over the staging of The Laramie Project, a play about a man killed for being gay. But only one protester arrived and was heckled away by counter-demonstrators...
Westboro preacher Mrs Phelps-Roper had said the decision to ban her and her father from entering the UK would "bring great wrath upon your heads".
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
"We will picket them, and see if they actually believe those lies they tell about how tolerant and accepting Brits are."
Who exactly has been spreading these vicious lies about us being tolerant and accepting? When we find them we'll take away their ID Cards and pretend they are asylum seekers from Iraq.
