Oh, look who plans to protest the funerals of dead people. It’s the Westboro Baptist Church, of course, because they are the only people who do that. The Kansas-based group, always striving to dream up ever-scummier field trips for its band of inbred soulless degenerates, says it will to go to Norway to inform everyone that the country’s acceptance of homosexuality (but they’ll say fags) is what really killed all those innocent people two weeks ago. This is obviously disgusting and horrible. Then why are we kind of looking forward to it?
