Ok so I'm not an overly political person.. Or for that matter religious at all..
I'm not a hippie freak by any means but the only time I've ever protested anything.. it was against these nut jobs
If you don't know who the Westboro Baptist Church is.. basically listen up
They are a "church" by the means of basically being a cult.. it includes basically one family and a handful of individuals that are insane. The Grandfather is the "preacher" and his main child is their head lawyer
Basically the root of all evil they say anything and everything that happens in the US is God punishing us because of *insert thing they believe in here*
They hate but are not limited to: Homosexuals, Jews, Muslims, Christians, and Catholics.. just to name a few..
Basically they hate everyone but themselves.. Luckily a few people have escaped the family but they pretty much fit the full description of a cult.
You may know about them because they became famous for picketing the funerals of soldiers who died in Iraq, stating it was God punishing the citizens of the USA for their toleration on homosexuals. (or other people they hate)

Here are a few videos you may enjoy:
a good compilation
The first part in the series the BBC did on them, it's all on Youtube
Michael Moore was on top of this quite awhile ago
Anyway over time people have learned that basically the only way to fight their fire is to take the media attention away to support the people that they're picketing... sooooo:
