Westboro Baptist Boss Fred Phelps beat wife and kids
Read Time:1 Minute, 29 Second
Well, we can’t really say we’re surprised that crazy Fred Phelps is an abuser, can we? Congratulations to his son for finally finding a backbone and speaking out. Thanks to Newsmax for the story.
The anti-gay Westboro Baptist preacher known for protesting at the funerals of U.S. service members beat his children with an axe handle and also physically abused his wife, Nathan Phelps charged during an appearance on HLN’s “Issues with Jane Velez-Mitchell.” The estranged son of controversial preacher Fred Phelps said “I think what he does out there is evil.”

Nathan, the seventh of 13 children, split from his family when he turned 18 and hasn’t had any contact with his father for 30 years. He is writing a book about the family whose practices of picketing soldiers’ funerals with anti-gay signs that say “God Hates Fags” and “Thank God for Dead Soldiers” was found to be constitutionally protected speech by the Supreme Court.
Nathan said his father physically abused the family, hitting them with “his fists. He used his knees and he used . . . the handle of a mattock. He used that in such a way that it split the skin on the back of the kid’s legs so they bled. If they want to call that discipline, that’s fine. But I call it abuse,” he said on the show.
Velez-Mitchell read a statement on the program from Shirley Phelps-Roper, Nathan’s sister, that denied the charge. “This lie should not have come out of his mouth when he decided to reject the word of God. Nothing he can say will change the fact that God hates (homosexuals) and their enablers and therefore God hates America and America is doomed,” the statement said.

In my above post I was of course talking about the old man and not his son. He’s probably had him as well.
This man is the spitting image of the filthy b*****d who put it up me when I was a kid. I could swear it was him. He’s got those same evil little eyes. Why do you give space to filthy peodophiles. The one who had me talked about god and crap like that, I know it’s this jagoff.
Barry we don’t give space to pedophiles but we will dedicate space to exposing them. Sorry to hear about what this guy did to you. Did you report all this?
Religion is fine – I say that as a ‘non-believer’.
Believe what you will and no problemo.
Sadly…the more ardent believers in religion are invariably the most mad bastards on the planet.
Humanity eh?…oh dear…
He’s an evil human who instills fear in all around him which is why they, his family, do what they do. They’re afraid of him.
This guy needs to be erased from the earth. HE is a cancer on the world.
Indeed. Nate needs to stop his filthy lies and just die and split Hell wide open right now.
Let’s see an old time Christian Fundamentalist who enjoys handing out violence to others … hmmm! Sounds about right. They have only been doing it for little over 2000 years. Sur prise!!!!
Sick Sick Sick. The really sick thing is that other so called Christians are not trying to drown him out.
You’re so right Bill! What a surprise? Say what?! 🙂
Seems to go with the territory. I just wonder how a church of only 71 members, mostly family, can afford to go flying all over the country to spread their twisted form of Christianity.
I’ve asked myself that Leslie. When the answer comes to me I get depressed. Someone supports these idiots. That is scary.
Every time these ass clowns get sued by someone and they win, they get reimbursed for court costs, etc. Since their lawyer is Phelps’ daughter, her fees are non-existant, so they make a bunch. Plus I think they all live in a compound and work, so they pool their money. I would really hate to think that anyone was nuts enough to actually give them money.
What a lunatic…
Isn’t he though Abby and an evil one to boot!!
This man is a bully.
Yes he is David and an evil person to boot.
This comes as no surprise to me. What would surprise me is if were not gay. I have learned those who protest the loudest are often the object of their own protests.
Hmm, that is the first thought that crossed my mind when I read this………..
