I am not a huge fan of the U.S.'s compete and utter destruction of the country formerly known as Iraq. However, the troops that are over there have my support, as they are basically just puppets in the current Presidential office's insatiable appetite for oil. It looks like a church in Kansas isn't really down with the whole "support our troops" thing.
[The] Kansas church that pickets military funerals out of a belief that the war in Iraq is a punishment for the nation's tolerance of homosexuality.Are you fucking kidding me? A soldier comes home in a body bag, and this church literally goes around the country and pickets the FUNERAL to protest homosexuality? That doesn't even make any sense! First of all, we CHOSE to go to Iraq, so how does that have a single thing to do with homosexuality? Let me try and figure this out. America likes oil, and we like to destroy countries so our country's contractors can get paid billions to rebuild it. All in the name of the "War on Terror." But this somehow translates into a sign from God that homosexuality is wrong? At least this church got dominated in court.
Church members routinely picket funerals of military personnel killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, carrying signs such as "Thank God for dead soldiers" and "God hates fags."
The jury first awarded $2.9 million in compensatory damages. It returned in the afternoon with its decision to award $6 million in punitive damages for invasion of privacy and $2 million for causing emotional distress.Hopefully this makes this fucked up church go bankrupt and disappear. Picketing funerals? The only thing that could possibly be worse is picketing the funeral of a person that you actually killed. I wish a huge group would loudly protest outside of this church of assholes every Sunday... So disgusting.
