Westboro Baptist Church hatemongers to protest Tim McClean’s funeral in Winnipeg
The tragic story of Tim McClean’s murder, beheading and cannibalization spread quickly around the world; his Facebook RIP page has almost 140 000 members. People relate to and care about Tim’s death because it was so sad, unfair, and random. I can’t imagine how his family must feel.
Enter the hatemongering douchebags known as Westboro Baptist Church. I’m sure you’ve heard of them - they’re the tools that protest military funerals, gay people’s funerals, the Olympics, the National Conference of Editorial Writers (who’s contribution to our slippery slide to h-e-double-hockey-sticks must never be underestimated!) and basically everything, because we’re all inadequate impenitent sodomites and it’s their duty to tell us.
Tim’s funeral is tomorrow in Winnipeg, Canada. He was killed while traveling there on a Greyhound bus, by a total effing madman. The connection to this guy and anything Westboro could be protesting against is nonexistant - something about Canada’s punishment for labeling them a hate group. Tim’s family has requested that the numerous irate Winnipeggers (and other Canadians and Americans, thank you) who intend to disrupt or prevent the protest to be non-confrontational and just keep these, ahem, people away from the funeral participants.
Canadian Border Services, bless you guys, turned the first group of Westboro protesters away at the Niagara Falls border based on the picket signs they carried. Getting wise, they FedExed their signs ahead of time and 7 members made it into Canada last night.
The Facebook page Protest Against (1276 members) is rife with Winnipeggers wanting to curb stomp anyone with a Kansas license plate. We’ll see what happens tomorrow.
