YouTuber aboutmattlaw has a “conversation” with a hate-mongering Westboro “Church” member during their protest in Park Slope yesterday. If you thought “monkeys say the craziest things” watching this video will change your mind. Kudos to aboutmattlaw for asking the question we’ve all been thinking but have been afraid to ask of the WB”C” people – “do you have your own photoshop guy making those signs?”
The WBC 7 hit the Kane Street Synagogue in Cobble Hill as well:
Brooklyn Paper: About two hours after leaving Park Slope, the Westboro demonstrators staged a second protest in front of the Kane Street Synagogue in Cobble Hill, where they used many of the same signs, the same chants and the same tactics to advance their message.
“The Holocaust is going to look like a tea party when God is done with you hard-hearted Jews!” Shirley Phelps-Roper shouted in front of the temple.
She also sang a rendition of the Beatles song “Hey Jude” with the lyrics changed to “God hates Jews.”
There were fewer counter-protesters in Cobble Hill, but at times the exchanges between both sides grew more heated than they did in Park Slope.
But while some Brooklynites traded insults with the Kansans, others found the seven Westboro protesters — including two children — to be more depressing than infuriating.
“It’s just sad to see young children being indoctrinated into hatred,” said Kane Street Synagogue congregant Vicky Vossen.
He never did answer my question re: photoshop : ) Thanks for embedding the video…
