So long as Westboro Church exists, christers don't have to modify their behavior because "they're not as bad as..." for a comparison.
It really is a convenient solution to their hypocrisy and hatred and intolerance problems.
Don't have to look at pedophile priests, murders of doctors performing legal medical procedures, etc. if they have westboro to compare themselves to.

But you know, vis, westboro christers aren't real christers anyway.
