  1. Ok, as you know i have a Youtube account -

    www.youtube.com/user/DEFINEMETALISBACK

    It did had have a couple of toon videos on it but they got taken down, but to the point, it's mainly about metal. I comment on alot of heavy metal videos, and i just logged on to Youtube today to find a message in my inbox -

    From - Shirley Phelps Roper

    To - DEFINEMETALisBACK

    You are using Satan as a symbol, and Satan is an enemy of God. God hates you, you're a *** enabler, and you will suffer for eternity in the lake of fire. These music bands that you worship are enemies of god and will suffer the same fate as you will.

    I was like wtf when i first saw this email. I looked her name up on youtube, and it so happens her family are very infamous world wide. They even go to the funerals of dead soldiers and hold up awful signs like, "thank god for dead soldiers" and "thank god for 9/11".



    In a way, i'm flattered that a woman this famous attacked me, but in a way, i'm also disgusted by what i've discovered today.

    Is there a limit to freedom of speech? How are they allowed to picket the funerals of dead soldiers? And how are they allowed to show signs calling people "***s"?

    Highly unlikely that it's actually her. You're being trolled.

  3. Actually it is mate. It's got her families official videos on them, and she has confirmed it on one of her websites. Anyway, that's not even the main point of the article.

    Well in the UK there is no constitution including freedom of speech although it is a basic human right. This said there are obviously things that should be said with discretion or just not said at all because of offence but then technically by saying that she is not allowed to say stuff you are technically denying the woman her basic human rights. That said the way she treats people she isn't considered human so I think you should just leave her to her business

    Freedom of speech is dead. There was never such thing anyway.

    Oh, and as a very picky English student, I have to point out it's 'there' not 'their'. Please don't take it wrong way mate, I'm just very anal about that sort of thing hahaha :D

    Aha. Well in that case tell her you're a gay, atheist swedish communist who collects princess diana memorabilia. After watching Louis Theroux documentary about her, you'll find out that she absolutely detests all of those things. Good for a bit of wind up.

    That's more of me just being a tit rather than a grammatical error ;) Ha

    But well done, you spotted my deliberate mistake. Top marks for you...

    Next week, algebra!

    Yay! <cheers>.
    Truth be told it's not being anal, it's upholding the English language the way it is meant to be!
    Anyway Tash, I can't believe you have never come across this group before, they've been in most of the media in this country nevermind the American media! If anyone can find it online, there's an episode of Jeremy Kyle where he speaks to them and basically has their life, even a proper priest/pastor from a real Christian church starts having a dig at them on it - it's well worth a watch!
    I suggest trying anything you can to wind her up and post the replies on here!

    I'd like to know how that crack-pot got your e-mail address in the first place.

    I really wouldn't worry about this looney tune, scientific proof is all around us yet these idiots refuse to grow up. Heaven and Hell don't exist and the sooner we rid the world of muppets like these, the better.

    Console yourself with the fact this can't be anywhere as frightening as the time when you were attacked by terrorists when you were 12...<cheers>
