The Westboro Baptist Church, certified as an hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, spreads its message of anti-Americanism and anti-gay hate often by picketing the funerals of U.S. service members, LGBT people, and celebrities.
The “Church’s” picket schedule reads:
Woodbury Funeral Home in Woodbury, CT December 19, 2012 2:15 PM – 3:00 PM
WBC to picket the funeral of Sandy Hook Elementary School Principal Dawn Hochsprung.GOD WILL NOT HAVE FAG MARRIAGE!!
How many more of your children will you sacrifice to your filthy fag marriage?! You proved you hate your kids by making Connecticut one of the first states to institute fag marriage. You marry wives (divorce & remarriage) and give men in marriage (same-sex marriage), just as Christ said would happen just before the time that He returns in power and glory, taking vengeance on the disobedient (Luke 12; 2 Thes 1).
GOD WILL NOT HAVE FAG MARRIAGE!!
The blood of the Newtown dead is on the hands of every preacher, teacher, parent and leader of Connecticut.
GOD WILL NOT HAVE FAG MARRIAGE & YOU ALL CONTINUE TO BE SILENT ABOUT IT!!
The dead children of Sandy Hook Elementary are better off dead than to continue being raised for such great wrath and destruction as you have brought to this land. There is no hope for any child of this nation outside of Westboro Baptist Church. You have a duty to teach your children to fear God or else leave them to desolation, darkness and destruction.
GOD WILL NOT HAVE FAG MARRIAGE!! YOUR CHILDREN’S BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS!!
GOD HATES FAG MARRIAGE!

The Westboro Baptist Church, which as a religious organization is tax-exempt, has won a Supreme Court First Amendment case ensuring their legal right to picket funerals.
Anonymous, the Internet hacktivist collective who took the WBC’s websites down over the weekend, have promised a real-world wall of people to block WBC members from the funeral.

We aren’t trying to violate #WBC‘s civil rights. We’re just trying to make the best use of ours. And we’re non-violent. They hate that.
