If you're after this ASSHOLE, it may be a loooong battle.

Don't quit.

Incorporated in 1967 as a not-for-profit organization, the virulently 
homophobic Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) considers itself an "Old School 
(or, Primitive)" Baptist Church. The Church is led by the septuagenarian 
Reverend Fred Waldron Phelps Sr., and many WBC congregants are related 
to Phelps by blood. His wife, several of his children and dozens of his 
grandchildren frequent the church.

While WBC has picketed the gay community at hundreds of events 
nationwide, most of the individuals protested by the Church are not 
homosexual. In fact, WBC most often targets people it mistakenly claims 
are gay or those it believes to be encouraging homosexuality.

Let the word go forth that the overwhelmingly vast majority of Topekans 
and Kansans DO NOT support Westboro Baptist Cult and Fred Phelps' hate 
campaigns against all who disagree with him. The District Attorney in 
Shawnee County (Topeka) has filed several criminal cases against members 
of the Westboro Cult ranging from disorderly conduct and battery to 
felony charges of aggravated intimidations of victims and witnesses. 
Prosecution of these cases are delayed pending the outcome of the second 
of the lawsuits filed in federal court by Phelps Chartered. There will 
probably be more. Fred and his lawyer offspring and in-laws continue to 
abuse the judicial system much as Fred did before his state and federal 
disbarments. The case is expected to be heard in federal court in early 
fall, but few expect that this will be the end.
