They’re back…

Posted by ALmod on January 24, 2008

And they’re going to Heath Ledger’s funeral.

I’ve had my own personal run-ins with Shirley Phelps.  Honestly, I’m hoping that they don’t have a message to spread, because they’ve pretty much killed off any chances that they ever had at doing so– EVER.  Actions such as the ones they’ve taken do little more than tell people to do the exact opposite of whatever you’re doing.  You heard me.  WBC, in it’s blind hatred, has actually become directly responsible for more sympathy and support toward the GLBT community.  By picketing the funerals of dead soldiers and victims of tragic circumstances, they’ve trumped up sympathy for anyone who receives a WBC funeral picket.  In other words, WBC has become a direct cause and contributor for the very thing that they condemn.

So, by their reasoning…  If contributing to this cause is condemnable, and WBC’s protesting has done just that, what does that make WBC?  Are they going to start picketing their own funerals?
