Thread:Comments:Lady Gaga warns fans of 'hateful' protests during concerts/The Real Church Lady?

WOW! Where's Dana Carvey when we need him? Folks like these god-aholic religious zombies depicted in this story are walking comedy material... welfare for the likes of Michael Moore, Bill Maher, Jon Stewart and the future President of the United States - Stephen Colbert (2012)! ; - ) Oh and btw, Coco sits on the sidelines as well; a spectator 'till November but something tells me he's gushing jokes for the future based on these type incidents that will make BP's Gulf of Mexico, Deep Water/Macondo disaster well look like a Death Valley mirage.

In all honesty folks, this is why I think religion needs to be taxed in the U.S. This current example of on-going "religious" nonsense falsely labeled "protest" is in direct conflict with Constitutional rights (and Bill of Rights) to free assembly (associated with congressional activity originally but not restricted to such). Oh and btw, speaking for myself, music is more a religion than this particular group of irrational and misguided souls known as Westboro Baptist Church. These continued intrusions by such "religious organizations" into political and social activities in the U.S. has caused increasing damage and costs to our already over whelmed infrastructures of safety and security budgets - not to mention the infringement of a legal business activity (for which I certainly wish just ONE good lawyer would emerge to press this point in a Civil Court). In this particular situation, there is not one shred of purpose or gain for the general good of society and is therefore nothing more than a lame (and no cost) advertisement for this organization to grow its ranks of ill advised, knee jerk, knuckle dragging alarmists who will be long gone when an actual need arises (floods, earthquakes, tornados, etc.). If religion wants the State to stay out of its business then perhaps the Church should stay out of State business - or ante up the costs like all the taxpaying members of this society!
