There's no place like home...

Here is my little diddy for you... I was in Overland Park for a day, spent all day with my cousin and his family. I had a blast... well the plan was just for the morning I'd hang with them but when I heard they would be picketing against Fred Phelps aka "God hates fags" guy... I said "Oh, I'm so there!" This guy is crazy! Of course my mom thought I would end up in cuffs but it was peaceful and he didn't show. I also stuck near Jana because if he would have been there and anyone would have got in my face..... well I'm not one to back down, hence the reason my mother was worried. Haha. If it came down to it and I truly had to stand down, I would have for my cuz. :P I think two news crews showed up. I know I had some air time on one channel. When the clip is online, I'll try to post it. In town one day and I made the news. ;)

Our signs read:
NO MORE HATE.
GOD LOVES EVERYONE.
GOD LOVES GAY'S.
9/11 BROKE GOD'S HEART.
GOD BLESS AMERICA.

The church at Westboro which Fred Phelps leads has 71 confirmed members, 60 of whom are related to Phelps through blood or marriage or both. The homophobic Westboro Baptist Church began picketing the funerals of U.S. soldiers who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. The group has used the same tactic against the gay community at hundreds of events nationwide. Some of the signs they hold read, "God is your enemy," God hates fags," "9/11 gift from God," "God hates the U.S.A.," "Your sons are in hell" and this list goes on and on!

Let me just leave you with that.
