Westboro Baptist Church to picket Steve Job's funeral
Quote:
Steve Jobs' death has garnered a number of reactions, but none as bizarre as this.
Westboro Baptist Church leader Margie J. Phelps has announced that the group will picket the Apple co-founder's funeral, condemning him for "teaching his neighbors to sin." While their actual reasons for promoting the picket seem a bit unclear, how Phelps made the announcement is causing quite a stir (and garnering a few laughs).
She tweeted from an iPhone.
The tweet that has critics pointing out the irony says little more than "He is in hell." The controversial church seems to be sticking by their words, however, ignoring criticism of the method used to get out their message.
The funny thing is, in the ATRL ticker only "Westboro Baptist Church to picket..." showed up. That's how they should have their entire schedule listed, since no one gives a **** who they decide to target.
