OK...my first thought after reading the headline was "Yes, the Ladies Man is back!"

But after reading this I am sickened by these idiots. I hope their car flips and rolls into a ditch that is on fire and loaded with lemon juice and salt . I know, very likely. But seriously, these people need to burn.

That'd be letting them off lightly.

It's things like the Westboro Baptist Church and the Phelps family that make me lose faith in the human race.... those people truly are the scum of the earth.

The daughter of the founder of the Westboro Baptist Church, told CTV.ca she and several other church members will go to Winnipeg on Saturday to demonstrate against what she described as McLean's "filthy way of life." Phelps-Roper described McLean -- who she had never met -- in an insulting, insensitive and graphic manner. Her crudest descriptions of the 22-year-old are not printed.
Geez, what did the poor guy do? I read that he worked in a carnival and was a bit of a ladies man. Whatever life he lead he sure as heck didn't deserve what happened to him, or deserve the hate mongering Phelps disturbing his funeral. Geez, I would think the Phelps would be thrilled McLean wasn't a "fag"; their favorite target.

I saw a really funny video on YouTube where the Phelps were protesting something with their "God Hates Fags" sings and a bunch of gays started told them with "God Loves Fags" signs and the women sheik "Oh God, here comes the fags - RUN FOR IT!!!!".

Wow just when I thought this tragic story couldn't get any more upsetting. If these people really follow through on their intentions, they deserve whatever is coming to them.

some people just don't make sense, how in the world can they believe what they say? it's disgusting. It sounds like the only reason they are protesting this poor souls death is because he was canadian.

Phelps-Roper said members of the Westboro Baptist Church, which numbers about "70 souls," is comprised mainly of a single extended family.
I'd hate to be at one of their family get-togethers. Bunch of inbred whackos.

Looks like McLean family will be spared this insult - the Canadians are smart enough to block this hate group at the border. Update to the OP link:

Extremist church to be blocked at border: report

Updated Thu. Aug. 7 2008 11:47 PM ET

Canadian border guards have been told to bar a fanatic church group that was planning to protest the funeral of a man beheaded on a Greyhound bus, reports say.

NDP MP Pat Martin told the Winnipeg Free Press that Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day sent the alert to border guards Thursday.

Haha, Jesus Christ these people are WACKOS!!! I can imagine them just sneaking around with their big ass "God Hates Fags!" signs and "Your son deserved to die" bullshit...I'll bet a trucker nails them crossing the highway and claims he didn't see anything, just keep driving.

One could hope.... actually I hope that said trucker would turn around or backup and run over them again.

Whats angers me about the Phelps phreaks more then anything is they do it in the name of Christianity. Jesus warned us of false prophets like Phelps using his name and his message of love and twisting it into hate. Free speech as its limits. Just as the second amendment doesn't give us the rights to bear nuclear arms neither does the first amendment allow people to picket funerals.
