I don't get making fun of old school American patriotism, in comparison to a religious opportunistic cult. So WBC are supposed to be rednecks? Huh?


I'd love for someone to explain it to me.

The WBC is famous for picketing the funerals of dead soldiers.  I don't understand what the Foo Fighters are doing either.  Honestly, groups like these need to just be ignored rather than be given all this attention.

sounds like they protest more than dead soldiers...all kinds of signs about "fags" and "abortions" so it looks to me like some kind of religious zealots...in that case i can totally see why the foos are mocking them

Neemo, I am fully (and sadly) aware of the WBC. They are religious zealots like you claim, and their "God Hates Fags" brigade in the U.S., primarily pickets dead soliders funerals.

Why do you ask?

Because in their scrambled pea brains, soliders die because God hates them because of the U.S. attitude towards homosexuals (we don't burn them alive, and allow them to live a normal, fulfilling life) and gays being allowed in the military.



And no -- i'm not kidding. They actually believe this. They also protested Ronnie James Dio's funeral, because his niece was a former pornstar.

It's all self-aggrandizing for their church.


And like Rex, I still don't understand what Foos are doing. WBC is better off ignored. Giving them more attention, just makes them cream their pants.

These people actually subject their small children to almost riotous crowds. Many of their kids have been injured... and yet... they continue.

Pretty clear what they are doing here. These fuckheads picketed outside the Foos show so they simply went and played a song that spit in the face of their asinine protest and rallied people against the WBC. Protest vs protest is all.  Not rocket science guys.

these bastards used the Foo Fighters forum to promote their bullshit to a large group of people so the Foo Fighters simply retaliated. yeah yeah better of ignored but c'mon if some asshole is doing this in front of you what are you gonna do? Foo Fighters simply stated their opinion in a  fun way. What's hilarious is  the lady at the end who was picketing says she liked that song haha! Fucking clowns don't even know what their picketing. Bunch of brainwashed assholes
