Why?

What good purpose does the Westboro Baptist’s hope to serve? How will their presence make things better? For Robin William’s family or for the families in Ferguson who are suffering their own loss....how would the Westboro folks help

How does it serve conservatism to support crazy people? Yes, crazy...craven...idiots.

develop an appreciate of dark humor

Stop taking yourself so seriously

The Phelps family picks on people who won’t shoot back or fight back. That was my point.

Dark humor does not comport w/ my belief system. Seriously...I’m not being snarky. I ‘get’ that other people have a dark side that they find funny...I’ve just never been ‘that’ person.

I do have a sense of humor...it just must be funny for me to appreciate. :)

Sorry I missed your point re: the Phelps. They are a sick bunch of coconuts. I do wish they would find another avenue to pursue for their money making and attention getting WOL.

Have a good day....

Life is good for WBC members. They get to travel around the country. I bet they visit some nice garden spots. These funerals are big social events for them, I am sure. The downside is they have to go home and look at themselves in the mirror.

Understood, I think.
You have a good day or evening as well.
