If there is one place in the universe that would qualify as suicidal for the Westboro idiots to try their stunt, it would be the funeral of a West Virginia coal miner. Those are hard men doing a hard job, and they’re a brotherhood. Protesting at their funerals would not go well. At all.

Not only would they be playing with fire, but should anything happen, no WV jury would ever convict.

No, not that I have seen. But they are blaming the anti-union corporate owners of the mine, of course.

I am afraid the left and Obama will use this as an opportunity to attack coal even more. We need it in this country, but that doesn’t matter to the left.

I would not trust Wickipedia. There is much opposition to Massey Energy because they are a non-union company. Not to say they did not have issues, but they have been a target of leftists for years.

Let’s give a good bashing where bashing is sorely due.

Absolutely! Mining is one of the few areas where the union actually serves a purpose; lives are at stake. Prayers for the families.
