It’s no news that Westboro Baptist Church is an organization of lunatics who are hell bent on promoting hate and prejudice within America today, but they may have outdone themselves with their latest stunt.

The so-called Church, who believes the 26 deaths in Newtown were “God’s will,” had planned to picket some of the funerals for those who died at Sandy Hook Elementary last week.

On Monday, Niall Boylan of Ireland’s Late FM radio show interviewed Abigail Phelps, the daughter of the Church’s founder Fred Phelps. Not surprisingly, Abi Phelps made outrageous comments while speaking with Boylan, asserting that the Connecticut tragedy only occurred because the state had legalized gay marriage.

She made time to take a few outrageous jabs at Ireland, as well, proving that Phelps believes that not only America is doomed, but apparently the whole world is as well.

In the interview, she likens herself and her WBC cohorts to the Apostles, and how their opinion was far from popular during their time.

WBC’s primary goal appears to be to save people from themselves in the name of the Lord. However, they take special focus - in the most contorted angles possible - on targeting individual groups who ‘sympathize’ with homosexuality.

“We are preaching to the living, it is the living who are to blame for those dead,” declared Phelps while speaking with Boylan on his radio show on Monday night. WBC believes that the shooter was sent to Sandy Hook by God himself as a form of punishment to those who accept and support homosexuality.

WBC also points to the Virginia Tech shooting, the Columbine shooting, the Tucson shooting and more as part of God’s will - all which is elaborated upon in the short video “God Sent the Shooter,” which will not be posted here, but Phelps repeatedly shares on her Twitter feed.

Phelps told Boylan that she was “delighted” when she heard about the 26 deaths in Newtown, that it was all part of God’s will.

“So you’re telling me this was God’s will to kill 26 people?” asked Boylan.

“Absolutely, absolutely,” responded Phelps. “And you know as well as I do that Ireland was founded on the premise of a sovereign God.”

Boylan asked Phelps if she was proud of the fact that she was part of the most hated family in America, which Phelps not surprisingly was.

“And hopefully, the most hated family in Ireland,” Phelps added, “because you’re all a bunch of knuckle-draggin’, potato-eatin’ perverts.”

Phelps sure knows how to win over her audience!

All in all, Phelps’ rambling is insane.

“Abi, do you ever listen to yourself and see how vile and how much hatred is coming out of your mouth?”

“Do you mean that I have now become your enemy because I have told you the truth?”

“You’re nobody’s enemy except your own. You’re actually your own enemy,” said Boylan.

Bravo to Boylan to remaining as calm, cool and collected as one sane person could during such a conversation.

WBC is now reportedly in Connecticut preparing to picket the wakes and funerals of those who died at Sandy Hook.

Shirley Phelps-Roper, another member of WBC and the Phelps founding family, tweeted on December 15th saying, “Westboro will picket Sandy Hook Elementary School to sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment.” (Her Twitter account has since been suspended for reasons unknown.)

Besides making a fool of herself on international radio, Abigail Phelps also took to Twitter to continue to promote her twisted views.

On December 17th, the same day as her interview with Boylan, Phelps tweeted, “While h8rs(Haters) h8 I'm getting picket signs ready for the fun of Sandy Hook princ. In Woodbury CT, 12/19/12 wants me telling "U R 2 Blame 4 it!" Here, Phelps manages to display both her loss of grip on reality, as well as the English language.

She tweeted later on the same day, following her interview with Boylan:

“They are pissed in Dublin, right now, just because I tell them some truth re: Priests Rape Boys - too bad, so sad.”

“It seems there might be a little lamb in Dublin, Ireland as I just spent 1.5 hours talking with them - they are "agnostics" and such - H8rs!”

Following a tweet from hacker group Anonymous (whose account has also since been suspended), it was made public that WBC is reportedly at the Hartford Motel 6 already preparing for their despicable display at the wakes and funerals being held this week.

Should anyone happen to be in the area, WBC is reportedly staying at “Motel 6 Hartford - 625 Queen Street in Southington. Rooms 34 and 16,” according to Abi Phelps’ own Twitter account.

WBC is one of the most vile hateful groups here in the U.S. Years ago, I saw them picketing an event in Washington, DC; it's bad enough that the adults are loons-they had their young children there to picket, too. Talk about brainwashing!
Phelps is insane, but the Pope is right. Homosexual acts 'are' disordered - and that is understating the point. The Phelps must have a death wish. There is nothing apostolic about them or their heretical cult. Phelps sodomizes the Scriptures.
PaddyCake, In reply to your comment to me; I made the connection of the Republican Party to this group because they are similar in their degree of ridiculousness and at least one of the group was holding an anti Obama poster. Although the well publicized views of Romney, Ryan, Akin, and Mourdock although not the same as the Westboro Baptist Church, their comments certainly put them in the same genre as those religious fanatics. Perhaps the Tea Party is also involved in fueling the fire against Obama. By the way, I don`t have a dog in the hunt, I`m reading and listening to the rhetoric and then commenting as an observer. From your reply, it seems you have a biased opinion and sound like a Republican loser who can`t accept that a non rich white person won the election. Get over it. Whites will soon be a minority in the USA and that will be the norm. Non white elected officials is already the norm in many US cities and states. As the population diversifies and interracial marriage increases, we will be a compilation of black, white and yellow and who will care? A better world is coming. Just saying !!!
Hate is hate no matter where from ,and is a plague that surrounds us
Proud Canadian2.......nope calling you a moron is just a fact. Nothing to do with Kettles or anything, only a moron would try and connect westboro baptists to either O'Reilly or Donald, but don't stop lying now you tell it often enough morons equally as stupid as you might read it and believe it. Republicans have nothing to do with the baptist shower, in fact they have more in common with fleabagging occupy folks,Republicans do not picket military funerals.......and I have nothing against folks in drag, after all when you wear your dress on weekends it gives a good chuckle, know what I mean wee girl, JUST sayin
Not that I really care, but if the WBO crowd did come to Newtown, Conn I doubt seriously that they would ever see Kansas again. Getting away from there would have been more than they could deal with, given the previlence of elements in that area that are capable of not allowing people to see Kansas again
Eventually, since they travel so much, the WBO van will probably hit a Kenworth lugging a huge excavator, and we will regretfully be unable to hear from them anymore
I enjoy been an atheist and chuckling at the verbal crap of weirdos like tonkeywest.Gee! redneck56 that was abit extreme with the body= bags at least it worked. I suppose when the Phelps die it will be the will of some mythical God.
olovely: "The pope believes that gay people are 'intrinsically evil' That's a lie. Withdraw your clumsy bigoted falsehood.
Westboro Baptists believe that gay people are evil and that God hates America for not destroying them. The pope believes that gay people are 'intrinsically evil' and that God hates their sexual expression. These people just show you what's under the hood.
Why do provide a forum for these lunatics, both the "church" and some of the responders?
We have a poster here--styling himself Tomswinford--who regularly posts anti-Irish and anti--Catholic hate speech that equals the slurs of these crazy Baptists.
Why is it the Phelps are sick, but we vomit
WOW!!! With some of these comments, they make you no different than hers. Such hate. Do you know 100% of what’s and why we are here? Some believe in the bible and some wrote their own and cherry pick and some don't give a damm at all. We all have a theory or belief. So what makes yours any different or believable? Some seem theory’s Unbelievable but still are someone’s theory. AND GUESS WHAT!!! We will NOT know till we die and the truth is known. So when I read all the name calling and insults to someone who has beliefs makes me think you are one sided and not open-minded. What is more confusing is that some of these opinions act like they know 100% of what’s the truth. When all we have is what’s in our hearts. Now this is just my opinion like everyone has. But like I said UNTIL WE DIE THATS ALL WE HAVE, IS AN OPINION. It might not be the same as yours but we won’t know till we die. I know this is going to tick off a lot of people who think they know it all and it is their way or no way . But I hate to burst your bubble but you never died to know the truth. God bless you all and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Xo.. Jesus is the reason for the season.
if you potatoe eaters would crack a Bible instead of listening tot he raping priests you would find the following verses: Amo 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it? Jer 15:7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; >>>I will bereave them of children<<<, I will destroy my people, since they return not from their ways. Sounds like WBC has it right.
