Fred Phelps and Westboro comes to Chicago

It's been a while since I blogged about the vile Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist "Church," but the loon and his tiny flock was in Chicago yesterday, where they picketed in front of some North Side synagogues and a Don Rickles performance.

Huh?

Tom Mannis of the Chicago News Bench has a slide show of the stench.

They were at the corner of Washington & Randolph, protesting who knows what, two weeks ago during the evening rush hour.

Delightfully, not one single person acknowledged their presence.

Perhaps they didn't know either.

Good post! A lot of people I've spoken with have still never heard of this church and it's activities.
Besides the obvious negativity that this group spreads, the saddest thing is the kids that are involved in this church. They may never get to actually choose their own spiritual path. They've been totally brainwashed by this twisted 2 dimensional version of Christianity.

I wrote something up about the church as well and threw up a couple videos of them and a picture of a toddler holding a sign that says "you will eat you babies"
Ridiculous.......
