Fred Phelps is a lawyer, and so are all the other leaders of the "church." Phelps once antagonized a man until he was punched, then sued and won.

The whole thing is a scam. Except... except for the grandchildren. Those poor kids are being taught the crap that the "church" is spewing as if it were true. Those who don't leave when they grow up are going to be actual fanatics and obsessively suing everyone.

That such a reaction was necessary was a victory for the ACLU over America. Decades ago their insanity would have never been allowed. Yet the ACLU has worked tirelessly for an atheistic, anarchist reading of the Constitution. A reading in which the 2nd Amendment doesn't exist nor does the Free Exercise clause but one in which the Freedom of Speech in any form is utterly absolute.
The term "3-7-77" came about in Montana when the official justice system had failed those it was meant to serve. We are fast approaching a time when those numbers will have meaning again.
