Don't know how many of you might be familiar with the "Baptist" Church from Kansas that has been staging protests at the funerals of our nation's veterans... (I put the word Baptist in quotations because I attend a Baptist church and nothing in Baptist doctrine supports the actions of that group)
Well, they decided that they were going to stage one of their protests at the funeral of one of our brave fighting men in Brandon, MS. This shall forevermore be known as "a bad idea."
A few days before the funeral a member of the offending church was at a gas station in Brandon and running his mouth off... He got his butt kicked for it and despite a rather sizeable crowd being present, for some reason no one could really remember anything at all happening.
On the day of the funeral, several pickups parked behind any Kansas licensed cars in the motels. The drivers could not be found until after the funeral was over. Some of the Kansas drivers called the Police but all the wreckers in town were out on calls so the pickups couldn't be towed for several hours.
A few of the protesters made it to the funeral but were taken away by police for questioning about a crime they might have been involved with. They were questioned for a couple of hours and released.
I can say that I am VERY proud to live in Mississippi.

It's nice to hear some people actually doing something about the WBC. While I fully believe they are entitled to their opinion, there comes a time when decency has to prevail.

Since it is against the forum rules to discuss political or religious topics, and the Church's motivation for their actions is their religious beliefs, I am closing this thread before their beliefs start being discussed.
