Words cannot express my disappointment with the East Coast.

If there is an upside to this, is that there was no shortage of amazing hospitals in the area with top trauma centers.

It's definitely a silver lining.

They need to have those there, on account of you fuckers can't drive.  I know; I've seen it.

Is true. That's why I prefer taking the T, as inconvenient it can be.

Well, that and the cost of insuring and maintaining a car here sucks.

Driving into Boston is a death sentence, and no series of tunnels could fix it.

It was a valiant attempt.

This is also a good tactic.  Mockery should be included, though, it's the only thing they fear.

What are they after?  To be the center of attention.  To be taken seriously, even if that means being hated on.

Refuse to take them seriously.  They can't stand it.

Some people want to be hated, nobody wants to be made fun of.

Yelling at the WBC is an okay thing to do as long as you and everyone with you can keep your cool and you go full-on dadaist at them. You can't address their issues, they don't have any. Spending any time talking about their problems is just giving their problems more airtime. No, you go and you call them cousin fuckers and make fun of their terrible photoshop skills. Ask them if they're inbreeding in hopes of spawning some mutants with extra arms to hold more signs, since it's always one or two guys with eight signs these days. Ask them when Battletoads is coming out for the Wii. They have volunteered for a game of "let's you and me yell at each other" and some days that's a fun game to play.

If I saw a WBC protest my first instinct would be to start making out with the nearest guy who'd let me. Pretty sure that's the most effective troll you could pull.

It is a classic 

Oh, and just so I know I posted this somewhere here: go donate blood if you can. Red Cross is encouraging people to schedule appointments now for the coming weeks.

Unfortunately my blood is classed as a controlled substance. I could be thrown in jail for cutting my finger.

i've seen lots of mockery, and it doesn't seem to slow them down any.  i mean, it's worth it anyways because of the funny pictures to paste on the intarwebs, but i've not seen any evidence of this doing anything but rolling off like water on a duck's back.

i would assume that they think anyone mocking them is their enemy, and mockery from an enemy generally fuels resolve, no?

does it ever cause them to pack up and go home?

I think we should get the entire LBGT community up there making out furiously in front of them. How's THAT for not taking them seriously?

Naw.  I think they're mentally prepared for that.

I think people that look like what THEY perceive to be "just regular folks" standing there and teasing them would be more effective.  They can tolerate "The Enemy" acting up, the idea that "mainstream America" laughs at them would be more effective.

I can always ask them why the spelled "Figs" wrong.

They're serving an agenda - to make religion look fucking retarded. Might not be their intention but it doesn't change the facts. GO WBC!!!
