These people have nothing better to do than to pick on dead people, gay or straight, who can not fight back. God will get them for this one day.

Very much a small town kind of mentality. One of us is in trouble, so we're all going out to help. In all honesty, I think Phelps' clan succeeded in one thing. They took attention away from Tim McLean and put it squarely on themseles. Free publicity. I do hope that the family of McLean are finding peace now. It's one thing to lose a loved one and mourn, it's quite another to have to mourn with the entire country watching. Peace.

That or they were too cowardly to show up after they saw the 500 folks ready to come between them and the grieving family. And too cowardly to show because the Canadians take hate speech seriously. Cowards. I think they’re full of it. That or they were too cowardly to show up after they saw the 500 folks ready to come between them and the grieving family.
