Westboro Vs. Geeks

There have been many times I've been both proud and ashamed to be a geek.  This year at Con was definitely a pride moment.  Many of you might have heard the Westboro Baptist church decided to protest Comic Con this year.  Stating we geeks were worshiping false idols.

For Background info the Westboro Baptists have protested many other events including funerals for gay soldiers who died for their country.  Even going so far as telling said families that they were glad their sons were dead.  So yes, they are the horror of humanity and if that weren't sickening enough, they attempt to pass off their actions as "Christian Beliefs".

So when they took on Comic Con I was so proud that the biggest collection of people who are intolerant of Intolerance steamrolled these 'Baptists' with Sarcasm and Wit, while never falling to the level of those they were mocking.

Decency & Morality are not religious beliefs, they are a human one.  Develop some Class Westboro.

Just like many of the things they do and say, they did not think this one through...

Geeks Ho!
