So, I check in with Westboro Baptist every so often (I assume most of my readership...do I have a readership anymore?...knows who they are; if not, they're the GOD HATES FAGS [and everyone else] people).

Honestly, it's because I want to know if they're going to be in MA any time soon so I can organize a street-artist protest, like the one I tried to organize last fall, only they never showed up where the street artists were.

Of course they can't be dialogued with, which is a shame, and I'm not trying to find reason there...there isn't any. But I want to see what would happen if, instead of bikers and protesters (who I'm glad exist), they were confronted with an arts festival of sorts. Or even one lone violinist.

N.B.: I would never do this for a funeral or memorial of any kind; that would be exceptionally disrespectful. But when they came to picket the churches here, I and friends were on Copley Plaza waiting. And they didn't show. Or if they did, they drove on by. Heh.

The WBC. *head explodes* They'd better be careful or they'll be God's next target. ;-)
