You all have heard about the man that was beheaded on the Greyhound bus... Well, there is a "church" organization that plans to protest at his funeral. I don't want to start controversy over this... I just think its crazy business IMO.

Here is the updated story of what happened on the Greyhound bus (graphic nature):
Bus passenger beheaded seat mate, witness says - CNN.com

And here is the story about the planned protest:
CTV.ca | 'Hated' church group to protest Tim McLean funeral

And here is their lovely flyer......from the official website of the Westboro Baptist Church. Calling Tim McLean Jr. "The Headless Canadian".

I'm just appalled! Someone should behead them! And what about PETA trying to use this to their advantage? I think it's disgusting! It makes me regret wanting to help them!

I believe this is the same group that was protesting soldiers funerals. They are a bunch of sick freaks who are using God as an excuse for their disgusting behavior.

Unbelievable!!!! I get disgusted every time I read about them picketing at someone else's funeral. They were in Wyoming when teh whole thing went down with Mathew Shephard many years ago. They just don't get it--leave these families alone so that they may mourn in peace. How unconsiderate!!

These people are not TRUE believers of God. Any christian would know that it is not our place to judge somebody and that God loves us despite our sin. We are all sinners and it doesn't matter how you live your life as long as you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior. Christ loves us all. He isn't going to send some psycho path to freaking stab us and behead us becuase of some political issue. That is INSANE!!!! I am so angry. This church is giving us christians a bad name. I can't believe that somebody would do something so disrespectful as to protest somebody else's funeral. That is a time for that family to grieve and remember. Not to be ridiculed and harrassed by crazies.

Let's hope the Patriot Guard Riders step up as they have so many times to keep those "people", if that's what you want to call them, from interrupting the funeral. I know they usually do military funerals, but they do such a good job!
