whitereflectionRecently, a local high school teacher here was killed when hit by a car. A sad thing, a tragic accident, but...
Westboro Baptist Church is going to be picketing the funeral Friday. (http://www.ketv.com/news/25753392/detail.html, http://www.ketv.com/news/25766842/detail.html)
What.
The.
Hell.
In.
Fuck.
This isn't some major political figure, this isn't some person who lived in the public spotlight. This was just a person like you or me, who lived a decent, normal life and who had that ended tragically early.
And Westboro Fucking Baptist Church is fucking protesting at her funeral.
I just can't imagine what this must be like for her family, friends (she was an friend of my stepmother's), colleagues, and students. I have no words. But I have so very much anger. These twisted, sick fucks have evil in their hearts.

Date: 2010-11-12 09:54 pm (UTC)This church is a bunch of insane wackos lead by an even more insane wackos. I guess their thing is they do these protests to try and claim some tragedy is God punishing society for our sins. It's so fucking *sick*, cruel, twisted...they're just horrible people. To me, they're just a hate group and a bunch of bullies, who are taking advantage and making a spectacle out of others' grief.
It's just extra horrible, because no one really knows why they're doing this. It's like they picked it at random, like they had nothing better to protest right now than to just be cruel to people suffering a loss.
