Saturday night special
Not much to report here. The neighborhood did have a bit of excitement as we were visited by the pig-eyed cretins from the Westboro Baptist Church. You’ll know them as the group of sub-humans who run the www.godhatesfags.com site, think 9/11 was God’s revenge against America for tolerating both gay people and abortion (which is confusing. When practiced correctly, homosexuality leads to ZERO abortions. But anyway…), picket the funerals of US soldiers etc etc. You get the drift. According to their website, they decided to protest outside of a few local high schools because kids are being taught “sodomy, how to kill babies and blindly following the words of Satan Obama”. And here I was worried that Ben wouldn’t pay attention in school… that sounds fascinating. All we learned about was long division and where Vasco da Gama sailed. Sheesh.
I had grandiose plans of going out there to yell at them but, boringly, Ben and I took a nap instead. According to the local news, there were far more counter-protesters than there were members of the WBC, so that was good to hear. I kinda wish we had gone because Ben has never seen idiots in person.
On to the pictures…
