Westboro Baptist Church To Picket At Sandy Hook

Westboro Baptist Church to Picket at Sandy Hook By Elton Camp “Westboro will picket Sandy Hook Elementary School to sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment,” Shirley Phelps-Roper tweeted on Dec. 15. Westboro Baptist Church is at it again Praising their god for punishing sin “God is love” the Bible does say But they refuse to have it that way The god they worship is strange to me The one from the Bible he cannot be Bible: Each one for his own sins will die To execute the innocent God won’t try Twenty children a lunatic did kill Did that crime give God a thrill? A secular nation gays does tolerate Does that bring on all God’s hate? A theocracy the US has never been It need not try to ban religious sin I agree gay conduct to God is wrong To the state its banning doesn’t belong Yet here they come to picket a school All will indignantly say, “What a fool”

Elton I live in England so I do not know this person or Westboro school or what gripe they have in the world, but I think those poor parents should be left to mourn their great loss in peace without the intrusion of every tom, dick and harry, this is not the time or place to voice your opinion....silence speaks volumes..David

sorry for my error, but giving them the attention you say they need only makes their actions stronger..as I say silence speaks volumes...this is a time for dignity!

Westboro Baptist Church (not school) never leaves people along. You might want to google it and see the despicable things they do. Elton
