Hate Church to Protest Lesbian Teen's Graduation

Geez:

A Mississippi lesbian who was denied the chance to go to her school's prom is now being targeted by a Kansas-based hate group - and it is going to protest at her graduation.

The Westboro Baptist Church, which has drawn jeers for picketing at soldiers' funerals and on Tuesday cheered the deaths of 12 tornado victims in Mississippi, said in a statement last weekend that they will be on hand for Constance McMillen's high school graduation ceremony, the Advocate reported.

"[We] will picket the graduation of Itawamba Agricultural High School to remind the parents, teachers and students of this nation that God said 'Thou shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is abomination,'" the group declared.

McMillen fought a legal battle with her Fulton, Miss., high school after it refused to allow her to attend the prom with her girlfriend. In response to the fight, the school then decided to cancel the prom.

She won in court after the judge found that the school had violated her freedom of expression, but did not force the school to reinstate the classic high school event.

McMillen then attended a privately held prom, but said afterward that the one she went to was actually a "fake," while most of the rest of her classmates attended another prom she wasn't told about.

Without getting into all the gay "rights" politics, let's just agree that Westboro Baptist is a bunch of in-bred idiots who do more harm to the cause of Christ than any group I can think of.
