Zombies Show Up to Counter Westboro Baptist Church Protestors

After reading this story, you may begin to see zombies in a whole new light. While they get a lot of criticism for their love of human flesh, it turns out that some zombies also go out of their way to support the troops.

The Westboro Baptist Church had recently announced that it would be holding one of its protests outside the Joint Base Lewis-McChord in DuPont, Washington. But last Friday, the controversial group was met with a far larger group of counterprotesters—dressed as zombies.

{SNIP}

"I have decided that the most violent free way to protest back is simple... a zombie apocalypse. So I ask EVERYONE who is able to attend that day, please come dressed in your finest zombie outfit," Neace wrote on the page.

Pretty funny, but Westboro aren’t hateful.
They are fire bombing lawyers looking to elicit a response that they can sue for.

Looks like the zombies didn’t bite LOL

I want to know how these people can afford to travel all over the country to protest when I can’t even afford to take a day off from work. How are they funding these trips?

Good. Anyone standing in the way of the homosexually obsessed Westboro crowd is doing something right.

From Wikipedia:

"WBC's travel expenses exceed $200,000 annually. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Westboro is funded entirely by its congregation and accepts no outside donations. The church has received money from lawsuits and legal fees. For example, they sued the city of Topeka several times in the 1990s. WBC received $16,500, and is pursuing another $100,000, in legal fees for a case won in court. The WBC is considered a nonprofit organization by the federal government, and is therefore exempt from paying taxes."

Personally, I believe that with their close ties to AlGore, there's DNC money flowing toward them (and therefore, Soros money).

Just my opinion, mind you - but I really hate it when performers decide to “embellish” their own classics in their later life.

I really loved that tune. In ‘67, when it came out, I was a sophomore in college. I have a lot of memory associations with the tune, but I remember it like this -

Argent still sounds pretty good.
I have a Colin Blunstone LP from the early 70s that sucks.

I hate when singers try to change a sound.

It was worth going to the link to see the photo.

I am still laughing in between thoughts of how hot the zombie on the left is.
