they were interviewing one of the ladies that will be coming to raleigh to "protest" the funeral. it was horrible! she said that they will be within a mile to a mile and a half of the church and that they had signs made that say "thank god for breast cancer" "elizabeth edwards is going to hell" and some other ugly ones! she was crazy!!!!
I just wish the news and all the media outlets would completely ignore them. The more they are put out there, the more attention they get, which feeds the spawn.....
I hope none of their family members gets breast cancer. What a sad situation for everyone involved. I cannot imagine what her children would think if they saw that kind of crowd. Sherry
Hope they cover all sides. I'm thinking about joining the group that will surround an outside area to block off those who want to make a spectacle of someone's death. Maybe a love circle. Sherry
