We Turned the Evil (though tiny) Tide

When I saw this article in the paper, I was very pleased that the people of Raleigh and the surrounding areas responded so well and so quickly to turn away the protesters. Click to enlarge.

I'm sorry it doesn't enlarge clearly. Raleigh citizens turned out by the hundreds to block the access of the protesters from Kansas to the funeral.

Thanks for posting the article. I could read it just fine. I heard something on the news about that group planning to protest her funeral. I just don't understand those professed Christians from Kansas! What a bunch of disrespectful idiots!!

My computer turned up its toes at trying to enlarge that pic, but if you say it was a good thing, then I'm sure it was!!

Boggles my mind what some religious zealots will do!

YES!!!...wasn't that wonderful! I agree with Gale's comment~ it just doesn't make sense to me; where's the compassion and tolerance for people who's views and 'selves' are different or varied? It will always baffle me!

I was sick when I heard what this group was planning. I never heard what happened and I am so glad the good people stood up for Elizabeth and against ignorance.
One of the best part of the article was that there was only 5 of those idiots that showed up.
Thanks for the follow up Judy.
I could read it fine also.

i was able to read it and thanks for protesting... why can't funerals be dignified and not be made into political rallies? But I'm glad that their were those to shield the family from the Kansas lunatics.

There are some very strange so-called Christians around.

Very heart warming reporting. It is great to know so many will rally against stupidity.
