Hypocrites and Homophobes

Two words that I feel perfectly describe the Westboro Baptist Church. I have avoided even mentioning these people for a long time, mainly because I didn't want to give them any publicity, but by now most everyone has heard of these people.

For those who haven't, the Westboro Baptist Church is a group centered in Topeka, Kansas who try to market their extreme stance against homosexuality by protesting and picketing anything they feel promotes or accepts homosexuality. Most of us here in ENC got wind of these idiots when they started protesting MILITARY FUNERALS right here in our own backyard because since the military doesn't discriminate due to sexual orientation, the WBC takes that to mean they are actively promoting homosexuality.

Basically, anyone who isn't outwardly anti-gay is bad in their eyes.

Now they have focused their attacks on Steve Jobs and are planning a picket at his funeral. The leader of the WBC's daughter posted on Twitter that Steve "had a huge platform, gave God no glory, and taught sin"... using her iPhone! Does that make her a lesbian according to WBC ideals? I'm not sure. Honestly, I'm not even sure THEY know what they are protesting anymore.

If you want to see something fun involving the WBC, hit the videos on my DJ PAGE at 995thex.com and watch the Foo Fighters making fun of them in song before a FF show they were picketing and watch the tools trying not to smile. Even they know they are a joke.
