Hackers Release Information on Westboro Baptist Church Members After CT Threat

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Have the hackers crossed the ethical boundary?

WBC is a scam.

They try to entice people into physically harming them so they can sue, and they do so while hiding behind their first amendment rights. Hell I wouldn't even be shocked if those Phelps assholes didn't even believe a word they say about God hating fags, etc. Every time there is talk of protesting them, they get in the news, and the chance of riling somebody up to the point of physical harm. Honestly, if these people would be simply ignored, they would likely go away.

Absolute scum of the earth however.

Go Hackers!

What is this going to do? Some nutjobs are going to go attack these idiots at their homes, or what? You're only going to embolden them and that is unethical anyways, so we shouldn't want that. I understand the need to lash out at people like this but hate breeds hate. When will people realize that...

I'd settle for them getting sodomized by a gay guy, a black guy, and a jew.

Not saying it would be a good thing, but the WBC is actually fairly small. They're just bigoted loud mouths who make a lot of noise. If something happened to them it wouldn't embolden their cause, it would just thin the herd. Plus it would be fun to protest their funeral.

That would constitute an attack, I think. :chuckles:

I'd settle for people just forgetting they exist, but that will never happen.
 
you shouldn't even need to recognize someone as a hate group to prevent them from protesting at a funeral. If there's any time a person is entitled to complete privacy, it's when they are grieving their loss.

We can agree on this. How anyone can't is beyond us.

How about we just not allow them to protest funerals......that would be a smart start. Or, do we REALLY want to be concerned with the RIGHTS of these ASSHOLES?

Hate does breed hate.......yes. But that doesn't mean you have to tolerate hate.
 
That doesn't make their means any less ethical. I'm not saying I disagree with some of what they do, but to say that the way they do it is ethical is false.

software piracy is unethical, combating hate and child porn isn't.

That's EXACTLY what it is. These guys are all lawyers and they all know how to play the system. Problem is that most people are so blinded by rage and hatred for them that they can't see what's right in front of their eyes.
 
This really boils down to the letter of the law v. the spirit of the law. Not a tough choice if you ask me.

You know how they say separation of church and state? Well I think of the opposite in your post; the spirit of the law must be put into the letter of the law. If ya catch my drift.

Absolutely. So why not just shuttle them off (literally escort them via police)? It's not like these guys are randomly showing up at Lil Johnnie's funeral in upstate Maine. These guys want attention......DON'T GIVE IT TO THEM.

I'm fine with actions to prevent them protesting funerals.

I am not fine with hackers posting their addresses and personal information around to encourage people to go vandalize their place of residence or, worse, assault them and use violence.

Anybody who does advocate that is just as bad as WBC.

When you look at it from a black and white perspective, if I gave you my address in a public arena (say, this forum) that does not give you the right NOR should it encourage you to go to my place of residence and use force.

I condone eliminating groups such as WBC. I'm not advocating violence, but again, I'm done tolerating stupidity & hate. I'd advocate putting these people in prison. Start putting heat on these assholes. Would I care if these people were to all die tomorrow? Not a chance. But is that the best solution? Maybe or maybe not.

If the WBC was at one of your family members' funerals, you'd probably be singing a different tune.
