My home Town of Wheeler Texas was struck an unthinkable blow recently. As this idiotic organization protested the funeral of one of this Nations slain soldiers. Ben Britt was a man who went and stood in the gap for those of us back home. He fought a war against terrorism in the terrorist back yard so that you, me and the morons from Godhatesfags.com could continue on with our daily lives without having to live in fear of the day 9/11 happens again. Not only did we lose this fine young man to dastardly cowards who have to fight freedom by hiding IEDs that will explode when they are safely hidden away, but his sacrifice was mocked by these bastards. The thought of it literally makes me sick to my stomach. My father had a thought to meet these idiots with a welcoming comitte and a shower of a few dozen eggs. My own personal thoughts would have led to something much more volatile. My father decided to not go forward with this idea. As that day was a day to honor Ben and the ultimate sacrifice that he, his family and friends had made, and not add to the distraction and cause an even larger scene. As I understand it the protestors came bearing signs that read things like "Your Son is Burning In Hell" and "God Hates America".
These protestors were met by a motor cycle organization ( the name escapes me as I am typing this) who surrounded them and kept them from gaining access to the funeral. I would like to say thank you to whoever you motor cyclist we're thank you for the effort you made it is gretaly appreciated.
Now my father and some other local people are trying to get together a petition to get legislation enacted that would make protesting at a funeral illegal in the state of Texas. A good idea, but I say, this not enough lets push this as American Patriots grateful to those who have died in our stead. Lets push this into a National Law that will not allow these ungrateful bastards to desecrate the memory of our fallens Heros with their idiotic rantings. I know nothing of how this works or where to begin, but I do know that there are those on ARFCOM who do. I am certain that many of you here will this as deeply as I do and will be just as outraged. I hope there is someone here who knows ho to get this jump started and headed in the right direction.
Here is a link to info on Ben Britt a man that I knew but not very well and a link and the Address to Godhatesfags.com is obvious sorry I dont know how to make the link hot.
