Yes, the Ebert quote makes a very good point indeed.

I remember when Timothy McVeigh was given the honour of having his portrait on the cover of Time magazine - effectively being given the full celebrity treatment. To prove the point, I can still remember the name of the perpetrator, but not the names of the people who are really worthy of mention; the victims, their families and the emergency service guys who had to clean up such a tragic mess.

ABSOLUTELY SICK! These people are not real Christians. They are deranged psychos who should all die a slow, painful, torturous death. And soon.

WBC pickets funerals of gay soldiers, they have absolutely no regard for the dead, or anything other than their agenda for that matter.

I feel so sad about this.

I used to always have the urge to infiltrate the WBC church. This gives me so much more motivation.

Their website was hacked by Anonymous after they announced plans to picket the funerals of these children.
