ODT RED ALERT - Lance Cpl Skip Wells Funeral - Westboro wants to protest.

[GeauxLSU]

Just because we get called doesn't mean that there is necessarily a "need" for us or something we are there to "block out." It's more of a respect and honor thing...I'm thinking about making this one; being that it is so close to home.

I understand and please DO IT! For those of us that can't.

Where it is and when it is will make it tough, but I'm going try to be there as well and if not, I'll do my best to be at the second phase (actual funeral) once it's official.

There is also a benefit ride for LCpl Wells' family Saturday August 1st that's being hosted by the Wingmen MC's Cherokee County Chapter. 10:00am check in at Sprayberry High School, then ride will be going up 75N to the Reserve Center in Chattanooga.

***Edited to add: I am in no way affiliated with the Wingmen MC, I just got the info on the ride forwarded to me and wanted to pass it on***

Don't you know? Because "God hates Fags". You see since the military doesn't take a strong enough stand against homosexuality, God is killing U.S. military members. Therefore they show up at funerals to torment the grieving families and remind them that their sons and daughters were killed by God since he hates fags. It all makes perfect sense.

Having walked along your lines to honor a fallen friend, rest assured that your presence is deeply appreciated by everyone in attendance. Thank you!

Hopefully the Patriot Guard shows up.

They will be and I plan to join them.

 

[RexProcer]

I may be able to make it. Whereabouts will they be set up so I can join?

Then hopefully the presence of the idiots is just a rumor and the Patriot Guard's services are not needed.

There is now a post, about Phase 1 Flag line only mission.

Thanks. I was wondering too. Perfectly clear now.
