    On another board I frequent they are saying that the "wacko's" from Wesboro Baptist Church out in Kansas are on thier way State College Pennsylvania, to add thier hate to the Penn St/Joe Paterno situation. :tonofbricks:

    Why wont those folks just go away, and stay away forever.

    Just huddle in their little building out on the prairy and revel in their hatred for everyone.

    I sure hope this report is wrong..

    Wow, guess I wasn't aware of the hate Westboro has.

    I can only assume that these folks are genuinely lost and are couching their hateful agenda in a vehicle they like to call church... a hijacking for sure.

    Absolutely.

    I just hate it every time they show up on national TV because the unbeleivers just assume that those kooks are representitive of all Baptists... and all evangelicals in general.

    I wasn't until now. I don't pay much attention to the news. Went to the website and I see they have no love. Misguided by hate is a common trap but I've not seen it like this. Wonder how they do Christmas...peace on earth, goodwill towards men.

    They (Westboro Wackos) recently (last weekend) threatened to protest the funeral services for a fallen soldier in our community. They negotiated and agreed to not disrupt if a local radio station gave them an hour of air time in prime time. One of our local stations did this in order to allow the family dignity in the burial of their son.

    I have the greatest disdain for such a group of people as those who call themselves Westboro baptists.
