Being Liberal and a Progressive in a RED STATE is not an easy thing these days. I started this blog to vent my frustrations on our lives being taken over by right wing conservatives with their propaganda machines. I have also learned an important lesson in the last year, it is that reading is the only way to get real information, you cannot depend on the news you see on TV.

Insane Church in Topeka

Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka Kansas. I first noticed them when I read an article about one of their members trying to defeat a gay city council member, they travel the country to picket against gays. From this article at ADL: About The Westboro Baptist Church:

At the funeral of gay murder victim Matthew Shepard, they held up signs reading "No Fags in Heaven" and "God Hates Fags." According to their Web site, they have staged "20,000" protests across the nation and around the world in the last decade.

Virulently homophobic, the Westboro Baptist Church has picketed the gay community at hundreds of events nationwide. Many of its fliers emphasize the race or religion of these individuals.

Here is a flyer they have released on picketing John Edwards who is scheduled to speak in Topeka:



What a bunch of sick people.
