The WBC are kind of the rock stars of religious lunacy. Watching the "Most Hated Family in America" documentary made me fear for what will happen to that family when Fred dies. He seems to have used fear to imprison them all inside his own little sphere of utter insanity, and I didn't get the impression that any of them have developed the ability to think for themselves (not that I think that this, if true, would release them from responsibility for their disgusting actions). If I still lived in Wisconsin I would probably drive up and add my body to the group of protesters. Have fun, and good luck avoiding any unprovoked arrests. Hopefully having new riot gear will be enough for the police, and they won't actually feel like just testing it out for the heck of it. All right, I’m following your Twitter now.

It might be one of those "you're standing here so you're under arrest" situations...hard to say. I do know the city dumped a lot of cash into more riot gear, some fancy crowd control devices and non-lethal deterrents. I've never been foamed before, might be an interesting experience!

HA! Well have fun and be safe, Hess. :) Sounds like such fun. What a shame that I can't go to the hatefest and get arrested too. :P And a good time will be had by all! HA!
