Westboro's Web site does not say why it has singled out Edwards's funeral, but it regularly attends funerals of military personnel. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/blog-post/2010/12/westboro_church_to_protest_eli.html Every website I have gone to basically states the exact same thing. I think they are a bunch of nuts. Sherry
Guess I found it. Sherry "When they were visited from the Most High God with the death of their 16-year-old son, they did not humble themselves before His mighty hand. They reared up in rage, decided they would show God who is boss, and meddled in matters of the womb, resulting in 2 more children -- now motherless." The church goes on to claim that she is now a "resident of hell, where her rebellion and rage will take full flower." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/...funeral-westboro-baptist-church_n_794333.html
OMG, how can anyone that claims to be a church of God spew such hate. They are seriously mentally deranged. i just hope and pray that none of Elizibeth's children seen any of their ramblings.
Someone really should just beat the living **** out of those people.... I mean until they're urinating blood through a catheter. It's all they'll understand.
They keep making reference to homosexuality and her son. Are they claiming that he was gay? I don't know anything about the family so I have been trying to figure out the connection also.
No I don't think they are talking about being gay at all. They are saying that the Edwards' should not have had children after Wade was killed and that they messed with God's work by doing so. Look at the link to Huffington and scroll down.....you will get a view of them and what they think. Real Sickos, Sherry
There was some violence against them at the protest I attended (damage to their transportation). I don't approve but people are now looking to kill them. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2010/12/01/104553/armed-veteran-arrested-for-allegedly.html
Well, that would have been the only connection to the Edwards that I could come up with, but it must just be the cameras.
Yes, I listened to the "interview". It is amazing how much hatrid people can have towards another human being.
