It's a sick, sad world afterall.

I was just watching the news when I saw something I could not believe I was seeing. A radical homosexual hate group from the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas is planning to protest the funeral of a local man this Saturday in Bakersfield. Army Pfc. Ramon Villatoro, Jr was recently killed in Iraq. Because he is a homosexual, the group has published a statement on their website thanking God for “Improvised Explosive Devices” and announcing their plan to picket the funeral of this fallen solider. They also claim that “God has become American’s Terrorist, killing Americans in strange lands” and thanking God for the recent bombings in London. If this doesn’t make you want to throw up, I don’t know what would. It is truly the sickest thing I have heard of in a very long time.

The local media is calling on members of the community who wish to show support for this family to attend the funeral. Apparently, not only do these wackos protest, they do so aggressively in the hopes of sparking a confrontation, which they can then use as evidence to sue, and further fund their trips of terror. People are being asked to walk past the protestors in silent objection to every thing they stand for.

It will be interesting to see if Kern High School board member Chad Vegas shows up.

[UPDATE:] Army Pfc. Ramon Villatoro, Jr WAS NOT GAY. The W.B.C. are claiming he was punished by God because their church was bombed by "terrorists" for being anti-gay, and THIS is God's revenge.
