Check out Steve Anderson on YouTube; that crackpot hates both Jack Chick AND Fellowship Tract League because they include repentance in their tracts. From a Biblical perspective, the doctrine of repentance must be approached carefully: on one side, people get rid of it all together, and on the other, people who over-emphasize repentance and misapply it.
Repentance simply means to turn: it doesn't mean to turn from sin or to turn to Christ, it simply means to turn. God repented several times, and there are other places that people repented when sin wasn't even part of the equation. The issue is that people have certain things in their lives that come between them and trusting in Christ: some have sin, some have good works, others have family or peer pressure; it's all different. People have to repent of that which they are trusting in other than Christ, or turn from that which keeps them from the Savior, and turn to Christ. "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness (unto = direction), and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
There is a balance to be found with this issue; apparently that site takes one ditch, while others like Ray Comfort and others are in the other ditch. Satan doesn't care which ditch you're in, as long as you're in one.
