So where is the FBI?

Rev. Fred "God hates fags" Phelps is taking a break from protesting at the funerals of gay people and has begun a program of protesting at the funerals of U.S. soldiers. In case you're slow to catch on to Phelps' special logic, here's how it goes: U.S. soldiers, before they were in Iraq fighting, were here with us living the immoral American lifestyle that God hates. So it is fitting to protest their lives when they die.

If a Muslim person in the U.S. were to protest an American soldier's funeral on the grounds that Allah hates the American lifestyle (which is what Islamist fundamentalist believe), the FBI would be all over that person, and he or she would be arrested on suspicion of being a terrorist. As far as I know, no FBI agent has chatted with Phelps.

The other thing that troubles me is that a lot of the people who will be sickened by the obscenity of Phelps' protesting at a soldier's funeral probably weren't that disturbed over his protests at the funerals of gay citizens. Just a guess on my part.
