There will be an anti-protest, protesting the demonstration of the Westboro Baptist "church" this morning in Yucaipa, somewhere around 10am. FYI: this is the organization that protests the funerals of our fallen soldiers with signs like "God Hates Fags" and the like. It seems like every time we turn around, there is another religious organization making a mockery of the gospel and a joke out of our Lord. (Sound familiar?) How much more do we take? Surfy |

I hope the family of the dead serviceman asked the Patriot Guard Riders to go and protect them from that group. Others have done it before. Diana |

I was there as well as about half the town or more. Patriot Guard riders out in force as well. Not sure if Westboro showed up or not. Surfy |

I think Satan uses so called "Christians" to discourage people from accepting Jesus and the Westboro Baptists are sure doing his work! |

I heard they didn't come. I think they would probably have been tarred and feathered. This was the first Yucaipa serviceman who has been killed in duty since the Vietnam war, according to the paper. He was only 20. |

Westboro Baptist Church annoys me. Those people don't have to like homosexuality, but they need to leave homosexuals alone. Their picketing at funerals to push their views on the world is silliness and just plain rude and insensitive. They wanted to picket the funeral of Christina-Taylor Green who died at age 9 in the Arizona massacre a few years ago. There was so much backlash that they decided not to go. I feel sorry for all those children raised in that cult. |

I don't understand what they are trying to prove. Really, their main thing is to fight against gay people. They need to just accept the fact that gay people have existed in every country all throughout time and will always continue to exist as long as this Earth will be. They are such losers. |
