wow. I really can’t even begin to describe how disgusted I am right now. ugh.<\/p>\n

the other night I was listening to the radio when I heard a news report about people having protests and demonstrations next to soldiers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 funerals. Now, I am totally against the war in Iraq. From the very beginning, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve thought that attacking a country without any real justification is utter crap. So of course I totally support people who protest against the war, but doing so at a soldier\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s funeral is just wrong. First off, there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s no reason to be disrespecting soldiers\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not like it was their decision to go to war; they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re just following orders. Second, regardless of who is at fault, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just messed up to be disrespecting the dead and to cause any additional grief to the families\/friends of those who are mourning. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a time and a place to make yourself heard, and at a funeral is not it.<\/p>\n

But it gets worse. As I continued listening to the radio, I found out that these people aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t protesting the war at all. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re protesting\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 homosexuals. Yes that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s right. You may wonder what the fuck gay people have to do with soldier\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s funerals. Well it turns out that these people believe that the reason why our troops are being killed in Iraq is that America is tolerant of gay people. Yes, believe it or not, that is the twisted fucking logic that these people believe. They think that because people in our country are ok with people being gay, god is punishing us all by killing our troops. How utterly insane does one have to be to believe such utter crap?? And fine, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going to be an total dumbass and have such idiotic views, then keep them to yourself\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go and agonize those who just lost their loved ones.<\/p>\n

The people who are doing this belong to the Westboro Baptist Church, and they have been doing it so frequently that 5 separate states so far have had to pass laws making it illegal to protest within 300 feet of a funeral. These people, who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s website is quaintly named \u00e2\u20ac\u0153godhatesfags.com\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, really are fucking unbelievable and I was just horrified at some of the signs that they bring to these funerals. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153fag soldiers in hell\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Thank god for dead soldiers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153they turned America over to fags, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re coming home in body bags\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. Also, apparently being a psychotic homophobe is something the whole family can enjoy, as they bring their little kids to join in the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153fun\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

really, what the hell is wrong with these people? It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s almost hard to believe that people like this exist. UGH.<\/p>\n
