Apparently, they will protest at the funerals for those killed in the Boston Marathon bombings. Because Massachusetts favors marriage equality, they say that God sent the bombs down to blow them all up.

Westboro Baptist Church says they?ll picket Boston Marathon victims? funerals ? RT USA

I think they are scum and I hate to wish this on anybody, but I wish that someone would bomb them.

Sorry, OP. People I vehemently disagree with, and I mean vehemently seem to have come to a consensus with me, or I with them.

Not that it matters. Some groups. are so disgusting and detestable in life that there's really no reason for them to exist.

They need to go.

I agree with you. Their actions are reprehensible but protected.

There are limitations on "free speech".

really? want to go there? are there any democrat groups out there that dont like conservative groups and have tax exempt status?

they use their hate toward a political topic. I dont really see them spouting their hate at political rallies.

Since when does the White House classify hate groups?
