HA!

I've long since stopped expecting reason from those... people. (My urge to curse here is almost uncontrollable.)

The Phelps psychos are planning to picket Steve Jobs' funeral. She posted her message of that plan FROM HER iPHONE.

Yes, I saw this on failblog. those people are whackos anyways.

That's amazing. Insidious Apple!

 

[Verdy]

What a disgrace!

Should I admit I have no idea who the "Phelps psychos" are? Should I ask who they are here? Or should I just go away and quietly do an Internet search on them?

AGBF - In a nutshell, they're a family and part of the Westboro Baptist Church that pickets the funerals of fallen US soldiers, claiming that their deaths is God's way of punishing the US for allowing gay/lesbian soldiers to serve in the military. On occasion they picket things such as this, concerts, etc.

Thank you. I (figuratively, but not literally) got off my derrière and looked it up, too, but I appreciate your efforts on my behalf, Verdy. I, also, have been disturbed by those protests. I strongly believe in the right of every group to protest, but I do think that it should not be allowed to infringe on a private ceremony. (I am speaking of the military funerals.) I have absolutely no idea how Apple computers ties in with the Phelps anti-homosexual crusade!

Among other reasons, they don't believe Jobs gave enough of himself to god, and that god created the iPhone, etc., not jobs and he didn't thank god enough for it. Nuts.
