"Shirley Phelps-Roper, a spokesperson for the group and, like most members of the organization, a relative of the group's founder, Fred Phelps, announced on Twitter on Saturday the group's plan "to sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment."
It is unclear when the group plans to protest, although a tweet from Margie Phelps implied that it would be during a vigil that will be attended by President Barack Obama on Sunday evening.
Members of the Westboro Baptist Church say that America is being punished for its acceptance of gays and lesbians. In recent days, Phelps family members have sent tweets about the Connecticut shooting that have said "God sent the shooter."

Whoa.. Got to go with Anon with this one... Crazy little #@$%^@%^@%^@%^..... So hateful... They share nothing in common with their true christian teachings, and I can't think of being further from god than supporting death... Is it a baptist thing? Or is it just that one church that thinks that way?

I'd love to see these people electronically destroyed and if someone using the Anony banner can manage it, more power to them. I just hope it's more than idle talk and bluster this time. WBC really crossed the line by focusing on the CT shooting. Low life is too nice a term.edit on 17-12-2012 by Wrabbit2000 because: (no reason given)

If our Government doesn't have the mind nor standards to disrupt such activities as seen by the WBC and other questionable groups, someone else eventually will.
