Westboro Baptist Church has announced that they will picket the funeral of country great George Jones, which is to be held Thursday (May 2) at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville.
So I've learned some news that many are finding disturbing. Have you ever heard of Westboro Baptist Church? Well, according to their press release, they are about to make a stop in Amarillo. Why? To protest the funeral of Genaro Bedoy, a River Road High graduate that died in active duty while serving in Afghanistan. Are you seeing red? Just wait, it gets worse.
I am sure that most every one is familiar with the Westboro Baptist church. They are most famous for the fact that they protest Military funerals. They stand feet from grieving mothers, fathers, widows and children spouting some of the most terrible and vial things towards these HEROES families.
