Members of Westboro church fail to post bonds

Two members of the Westboro Baptist Church ordered to pay $5 million for protesting a U.S. Marine’s funeral have not posted the bonds necessary to stay collection of the jury award against them pending appeal.

On April 3, U.S. District Judge Richard D. Bennett granted Shirley L. Phelps-Roper’s and Rebekah A. Phelps-Davis’ motion to postpone payment of the verdict contingent upon their posting $125,000 and $100,000 bonds, respectively. Bennett also placed a lien on the properties of the church and its founder, Pastor Fred W. Phelps Sr.

At the time, the sisters argued for far lesser bond amounts, and Phelps-Roper indicated she would not be able to offer such collateral to the court. As of 5 p.m. Monday, the deadline imposed by Bennett, the sisters had not posted the bonds, according to court records.

Sean E. Summers, an attorney for plaintiff Albert Snyder, said the sisters’ appeal of Bennett’s ruling on their motion to stay made it unlikely they would put up the cash Monday.

2. Yeah ..... that's what the judge wanted to know

You know he had all his kids marry lawyers so he had an army of them to argue his cause and protect (hide) his assets.

11. Free Speech is a progressive ideal.

Government seizure of assets is not.

No matter how despicable the signs are, they are free speech, and no matter how offensive someone finds those words, they're free speech. The facts do not support the case and judgment that have come from them. The judgment and the civil claim are both anathema to progressive ideals.

The judge, a recent Bush appointee, a lifelong Republican, and a lifelong military officer, will be reversed on appeal, eventually, and it won't be soon enough.

As for Fred and his church, who cares what they say? They have a right to believe any nonsense they wish, just like all the other church goers in America who believe and repeat annoying nonsense and call it God's word.
