Default Westboro Baptist Church to Protest Funeral of 9 yr. old girl shot in Arizona

The controversial Westboro Baptist Church are planning to protest the funeral of Christina Green, the 9 year old girl killed in the Arizona shooting rampage. For reasons too despicable for me to repeat here, a press release from the church asserts that the killer was sent by God.

There has to be a very special circle of Hell for people like this "church" -- one that even Dante couldn't imagine.

This Church seems to be a good evidence for the existence of evil in the U.S. Maybe, they should protest themselves.

It would help if all facets of the media would simply ignore them. The more publicity they get, the more obnoxious they get. They even called a "press conference" for themselves. If the press doesn't show, that sends a pretty good message to them.
