The hate group, WBC (Westboro Baptist ‘Church’) showed up, this February, to picket a Santa Monica High School after the school publicly embraced a lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) environment. When WBC arrived, they got a big surprise. The Santa Monica High School district’s Board of Education caught wind of WBC’s threat to picket, and sent out an open letter to the students and community. The community showed up, and it looks like they had a good time. Some of the counter signs to Westboro’s “God Hates…” were:

“God Cares for All Creation,”
“Ain’t Nobody Got Time for Hate” and
“God Hates People Who Say They Know Who God Hates.”

The crowd held hands, waved flags and cheered. {Want a morning smile? Watch the video--Dunno why it's not posting directly to thread like usual, but you can click on it. See WBC shuffle off in the end, hee, hee, hee!)

These days, the WBC is having more and more trouble spreading their hate. Banned in the UK, Westboro Baptist Church caught the attention of, Anonymous, in December when WBC threatened to picket the funerals of the children who were killed in the Sandy Hook massacre. WBC did not show. Then the Westrboro hate gang threatened to picket the funeral of Krystle Campbell. Krystle Campbell was one of three victims who died in the Boston Marathon Bombing. Anonymous again jumped in, brand-jacked WBC’s Facebook account while sending them a subtle message. Teamsters Local Union #174 also got involved and beckoned to the WBC group, “Show your face!”

Westboro Baptist Church opted not take the Teamsters up on their challenge. http://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/05/05/youre-not-in-kansas-anymore-we
