Westboro Baptist Church
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20101021/news/710229745/
Today the Westboro Baptist Church is in Buffalo Grove, Illinois to protest BGHS' production of The Laramie Project.
It's not surprising, but it is so frustrating. A high school play, really? A wonderful play about love and acceptance.
My mom lives close to there, but unfortunately I can't get out there today. If you live near there, I urge you to go. Counterprotest. Show love not hate.
Have you ever been to a WBC counterprotest? Did you bring a sign? What did it say? What are some of your favorite WBC counterprotest signs?

WBC has threatened to protest the showing of a documentary at my friend's school in Naperville, IL on Monday. She wants to go to the protest, but thinks that the WBC might not follow through. I wonder if they're more likely to, since they're in the area, more or less.
