Okay, so I saw on a friends Facebook wall this morning that the folks from Westboro Baptist Church are planning on protesting outside the Midland School District near Pleasant Plains, Arkansas on November 10th in response to the whole Clint McCance school board member thing. Well, this started the wheels to spinning in my head, and here’s what I have come up with. On my Facebook Wall I posed the idea to my friends that we should organize a mass mooning to welcome the Westboro Baptist people to Arkansas. I was amazed at how quickly people took to the idea so here’s the next step. If you are interested in being a part of this operation “Hiney on the Highway” please drop a comment below and let me know. We can probably arrange for carpooling so we can get the most people there to have an impact.
In case your not familiar w/ Westboro Baptist Church, they are the radical group that protests soldiers funerals around the country. While I agree they have the right to free speech and all of that, it sure does make me sick to think these people stoop as low as they do, and what makes it really gross is how they do it all in God’s name. I have often been outraged by these people protesting events around the country but have never really had any idea how I would respond if I encountered them in person. The idea of paintball guns has entered my mind more than once but honestly that would just be putting myself on their level of intelligence, so I came up with something today that I think just might offend them as much as they offend me, and that’s showing them exactly what I think of them. There is no better way to do this in my opinion than by mooning them. If these signs outrage you here’s your call to action.
- Update 11/08: I have to give my fried Jamie credit for possibly summing up our entire mission in one single tweet / quote from arguably one of the best movies of all time! Well played.
- Update 11/04: Operation Hiney on the Highway now has a Facebook Group setup, click here to join. You can also follow @hineysforhope on Twitter…
- Update 11/05: Since there is a possibility that children will be present, and to escape the possibility of indecent exposure charges, we have decided to wear brightly colored boxers w/ messages printed on them, mine will have Matthew 7:1 – Judge Not, that ye not be Judged printed on them. This doesn’t mean we are backing down, we just don’t want to run the risk of the group being arrested, therefore leaving them (westboro) there alone to spew their message of hate.
Leave a comment below to let me know what you think of this campaign, and also if you are interested in attending “Operation Hiney on the Highway”. This should be a blast…
Go Cotton!
Thanks for your support, this is an idea we can all get “behind”
I’m in South Africa, but I would give ANYTHING to join you guys!! You’re friggin awesome!!!
Thanks for your support. Hope things are going well in South Africa.
This sounds like an entertaining and worthwhile endeavor. 🙂 Keep me informed!
Will do. Someone is already working on the Facebook Event Invitation right now.
I’m in. Just wondering what time it will be……
We are doing our best to find out the specifics right now.
We found out it’s going to be between 2 and 3pm
Dang it!! I get off at 230….i’ll be late….but i’m ready to party!!
No doubt. I have fantasized about Paintballin’ them hundreds of times but I honestly think this will have the most impact.
Okay, just to update everyone, we now have a Facebook Group started: http://www.facebook.com/cottonr#!/pages/Hiney-On-The-Highway/167342496618343 as well as a Facebook Event: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Hiney-On-The-Highway/167342496618343?v=app_2344061033#!/event.php?eid=143083469072548&index=1 and while you are at it, don’t forget to follow @hineysforhope on twitter: http://twitter.com/hineysforhope.
You could always use rotten duck eggs, but the Three Stooges used a skunk.
lol… YES.
Can we shoot them with paintball guns, and moon them??? lol!!!
The most important part of the mission is the mooning. I am afraid we might get assault charges or worse put an eye out w/ paintball guns. 🙂
that made me laugh out loud. Great idea ha ha
Just brilliant!! Why hasn’t someone thought of this before? Good Luck and if I weren’t in NC I’ld be there ready to drop trou with ya!!
Maybe we can start a movement that will follow them around the country.
Sorry you are going to miss out, we will do our best to photograph and document the event.
as much as this is an amazing idea, please be careful as to not get arrested for indecent exposure. most towns and police find out in advance if westboro is coming and prepare. if they’re on hand (or butt) it could, unfortunately, be a possibility and then the fruits of your labor would be down the toilet so to speak….
Thanks for your concern, and you do bring up a good point. We actually decided late yesterday that since children were possibly going to be present during those hours that we should probably go with brightly colored boxer shorts with messages printed on them. We are encouraging everyone to do that instead of “mooning” but who knows what will happen if they decide to show. 🙂
I was the guy who led the “attack” on these psychopaths at the big gay mass marriage in DC last April. I gathered up a group of kids and some other adults. And we marched towards these creeps. I was fondling my dick, and spit at them. Many of the kids and adults were engagged in same sex mouth to mouth kissing.
And the head bitch – I think it is shirey Phelps Roper doubled over ,screaming invectives I’ve never heard in my long life. And then they all jumped in their car and drove off to everyones cheers. I only wished I had an army bazooka – to fire a white phosphorus shell into their car – and watch these monsters just disolve in the fire that you cant put out until it consumes you, as we were told in army training long ago.
another thing done at WBC protests is people will pledge so much per minute in $ for hwo long the WBC stays. At one protest in Boston, I read they collected $700 for the gay straight alliance at the school, turning the tables on these creeps.
BTw, if you wonder what makes people like this , its endless child physical, and probably child molestation. Google “addicted to hate”, and you can read a book – its free – about them. Also, as we read about the rabid Nazi RATzi and his hatred of the gays, it does make one wonder if the catholic church’s hiding of endless molestation of the kids had a purpose – to make more people similar to the phelps. If you are catholic, don’t let the veneer of civility and love of the church fool you. they are all about power and control. They have yet to excommunciate Hitler, born and baptised catholic in 1888 in veryu catholic austria. And RATZI in 2009 UNexcommunciated a Bishop williamson, who is a holocaust denier.
Our whole family has left this ugly monstrosity from the dark ages of human history. If you are catholic you should also. Don’t let their threats of hell bother you, or their promises of life after death. For these creeps – the heirarchy of the church, its hell for sure, or just the maggots. A fitting end for another , just more sophisticated group of haters.
Here is another little game the adults can probably play with immunity. Buy a number of long sausages, and stiffen them with a coat hanger or piece of #12 copper wire . hook the wire over your belt so it looks like a big erection . And march up to them while simulating masterbation.
I occasionally go to a gay bar with gay friends. Which btw, often prompts the wife to go – “what is it – gay, gay and more gay”?. To which I always reply “youre welcome to come and enjoy the fun. Last night we went to a str8 bar with a group that brings out about 400 gay people and some str8 supporters. And had a hell of a good time, the net crowd was prob 50 – 50 gay -str8, nobody gave a damn who was gay or not. There was all kinds of what I’d call bisex dancing, hot lesbians chicks and I wore my HRC T shirt that says “legalize gay”. the younger generation, at least in baltimore doesn’t give a damn who is gay or str8, in fact the high school girls in general seem to love gay guys.
BTW- google “guerrilla gay bar-baltimore to see more on this groups activities.
And pray that a meteor will crash through the phelps home in Topeka, and incinerate those freaks.
Thanks to everyone for all of their support, but I have decided to call of the Hiney’s on the Highway project, and here’s an explanation: http://www.cottonrohrscheib.com/blog/2010/11/09/no-hineys-on-the-highway/
Thanks for your opinion. I have decided to call off the operation. It was never the LGBTQ issue that motivated me as much as it was my overall dislike for Westboro. But, I do respect your opinion as well as your agenda and your freedom in this country to do whatever you can to promote tolerance and dispel hate. But for me it was more of a personal crusade against Westboro’s overall message of hate and everything they stand for. I am sickened when I see them protesting soldiers funerals. I wish you the best and rest assured we are keeping our hiney’s at home tomorrow. 🙂
You have to at least me points for creativity don’t you??
