Just when you thought the aftermath of the Virginia Tech shootings might settle down to allow those affected a chance to heal emotionally, along comes those nutso anti-gay fanatics from Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan. You know, those folks with the catchy Web site, godhatesfags.com?
Those fine Kansas Christians plan to picket the funeral of Virginia Tech shooting victim Ryan Clark which is to be held tomorrow in Evans, Ga.
The Westboro gang are the ones who picket funerals of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq, the fanatics’ reason being that God (apparently the angry one)is punishing our country for its “sodomite” ways.
Now, especially in the wake of what happened in Virginia, I don’t advocate violence. But sometimes actions such as those of these nuts from Westboro make me think they need to be slapped silly. Who knows, perhaps their angry God will turn on them.
