I saw on FB that the Westboro "Church" is going to picket funerals of Sandy HooK. Please tell me this isn't true.

I saw it, too. I also saw that the KKK is going to protest Westboro. It was on the internet, so it must be true. Maybe this is what was meant by the end of the world as we know it.

Those children were Americans.
Westboro says God hates Americans. No different to the bile they usually spew.

Suffer the little children etc...

I heard this by word of mouth, and that three "hacker" groups are giving them the business. Posting their personal contact info so that they can be harrassed by the world at large. Haven't looked into it, but I assume it's all out there somewhere.

Also, something about getting them classified as a "hate group" --which, why wasn't this done sooner?

Which leads to the next question, why isn't Pat Robertson and the 700 Club classified as a hate group? Didn't he blame 9/11 on gay people? Or something equally insane and inflammatory?

I was gratified that there wasn't any media coverage about the w.boro fools. A big ignore, hackers galore, and let's throat punch w.boro via text. Someone write an app.
