Sounds about right. I'm pretty sure that's what Phelps' grandaughters espouse here, though I was too fascinated by their giggling at the idea of dead soldiers to pay full attention to the full dialogue.
That's what they say when publicly asked, but to me, it seems they are simply desperate to stay out of "hell".

Indeed, either it's all fair game, or none of it is. As they say, it's not the popular speech that's in need of protection. To some extent I'm glad groups like the wbc are allowed to do what they do, just to have some insight into what makes them tick, which is fascinatingly puzzling to me. Also it let's them blow off some steam, hopefully releasing some pressure from the crazy tank.
I do enjoy seeing them defeated cleverly again and again.
The contrast of facial expressions is priceless.
