Title: This is rather... weird.

QuoteThe Westboro Baptist Church has made offending people an art, arriving at any public event they believe will have some media around, spreading their anti-homosexual message of hate.  One of their favorite spots has always been at the funerals of soldiers, targeting their families with signs stating that their loved ones died because of God's wrath over gays in the military.

So it's not much of a surprise that a contingent of the church showed up that the Memorial Day service at Arlington National Cemetery.  Slightly surprising, though, was who was there to meet them.

The Ku Klux Klan.
I'm rooting for them both offing each other, personally.
Onward christian soldiers... ect ect

Everybody hates the WBC. It's great!

Yeah, this is taking it to a whole new weird level. Someone I know posted this on their facebook.

Everybody claims to hate the WBC, but that's not exactly accurate, is it?  You love them.  To be precise, you love to hate them...Otherwise, why do they receive so much attention?  If you didn't spit on them and revile them for their bullshit, they would stop.  They are the rebellious teenager, and you are the parents who reward their bad behavior with the attention they crave.

I find them highly entertaining. You couldn't create a parody that over-the-top. They're even all related! I mean, WOW! It's in "poor taste" to be amused, though. :(

Frankly, I think they are doing us all a great service.

This comes as a surprise to me—I've always suspected that Westboro Baptists were privately KKK members.

I prefer WBC to the KKK

I know it's kind of like preferring Stalin to Hitler, but the WBC aren't lighting houses on fire or lynching people and they never have.

I feel no particular reason to elevate one above the other.  They are both worthy of the harshest scorn I can give.

That we know of.  There have been a lot of accusations over the years though....

Speaking personally I find the WBC hilarious on grounds of - totally out of touch with reality. Teh KKK, on the other hand, are just about sane enough to make me wanna kill people.

Fine line, tho.
