The Westboro Baptist "Church" has learned the hard way that freedom of speech is not a one way street.
A group of bikers has gone out of their way to travel to Topeka Kansas and "bring the fight to the enemy" so to speak. I wholeheartedly salute these guys! It's about time these disgusting activists heard a bit of noise directed at them for a change.

FWIW, Phelps and his family are lia...er...lawyers who specialize in freedom of speech litigation. Their function in life, to support themselves, is to stir up cases against themselves where they can come in and make money.

...the church in Topeka, Kan., claims only about 100 members, almost all from the family of a man named Fred Phelps.
And even though they call themselves Baptist, Mark Potok at the Southern Poverty Law Center says their extreme theology sets it apart from any other church.
"Westboro Baptist Church is an organization that essentially has no friends whatsoever on the far right, the far left or anyplace in between," Potok says.

Eleven of Fred Phelps' 13 children have law degrees. Four are estranged from the family, and most of the rest live in the family compound and practice law.
"They have a very well-respected law firm in Topeka," Sherman says. "People in town said, 'Well, we don't like them, but if we want to win a case, we'll go to them.' "
Church spokeswoman Phelps-Roper says their booming employment and family law practice pays the bills for their travels across the country, when they shout their anti-gay message. They travel in vans to keep down the costs, which she says can add up to $200,000 a year.

Westboro Baptist Church is just a law firm disguised as a church to avoid taxes.........
