God Hates Wack Jobs

So, uh, Fred Phelps of "God Hates Fags" fame tried to protest my brother's graduation. (My alma mater as well) Here's their fancy flyer. Please be sure to note the "Sodomite Death Dance" at the bottom of the page.

John's blog has good news, though--because EPHS has its graduation on the University of Minnesota campus, the would-be protestors got lost and went to the wrong place. I guess God also hates people who can't read maps. Sorry, folks!

So, now, let's talk strategy for just a minute:

I can understand it if Fred Phelps is going to protest at places like Gay Pride parades, and national church meetings like the UCC's General Synod two years ago--a lot of people are going to be there, and they're events specifically about faith and gay rights. But people, are you really going to protest A HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION?

Oy vey.
