You're familiar with the infamous Westboro Baptist Church, even if you've remained unfamiliar with their name: they're the group that protests the funerals of dead American soldiers killed in Iraq, the folks with the "God Hates ->-bleeped-<-s" signs, the ones that seem to live simply to infuriate and disgust the masses. Well, you've probably been waiting for these D-bags to get what's coming to them, and finally, some small semblance of justice has befallen the world's most hateful church. Who'd have thought Twitter would be involved? Read on for the details, my gentle Examiner readers...
Late last month, it was announced that the ridiculously, almost cartoonishly hateful Westboro Baptist Church was going to picket the offices of Twitter. This makes just as much sense as anything else the Westboro Baptist Church protests (including dead American soldiers killed in the line of duty overseas, dead children's funerals, and anything even remotely connected to homosexuality), I guess, but apparently the WBC didn't count on one thing in their protest of the internet's latest trend: the insanity of the people who live for Twitter.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry.
If you took the total IQ of WBC member does it add up to be an integer greater than 0?

The only reason they (wbc) protest is to get press coverage.

What they deserve would be the entire (non escaped and normalized) family being killed by a meteorite.
