From the New York Daily News: A lesbian couple gave the bigots at the Gay-hating Westboro Baptist Church a taste of their own medicine by tying the knot in an outdoor ceremony across the street from the church.
The Westboro members, who are infamous for staging anti-Gay protests at the funerals of fallen soldiers, were forced to watch as Kimberly Kidwell and Katie Short said “I do” just 50 feet from their front doors in Topeka, Kan.
As for the WBC members, the often obscenely vocal arch nemeses of all things homosexual, they made their presence known with signs bearing vile messages and upside-down American flags, Jackson said. But otherwise they kept their distance and didn't get involved.
"They're not allowed to protest a residential property," Jackson said.
Responding at length to the scene on Twitter instead, WBC called the wedding a "great preaching opportunity," in so many extra words.
"We love all neighbors & tell them truth as they gather…" they wrote while posting a photo showcasing the work they had done in decorating their fenced-in yard with crude signs specifically for the event.

Unfortunately, the haters at the Westboro Baptist "Church" will not learn from this.
