No Westboro Picket for Jobs Funeral

Apple Co-Founder and Former CEO

The funeral for Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was held last Friday, and it was a small private affair.

With the specific time and location of the funeral undisclosed, Westboro Baptist Church members, who had announced plans for another disgraceful "anti-gay" funeral protest, were left all dressed up with no place to go. Tough break for Fred, Margie, and Shirley Phelps, and their dysfunctional band of sadly brainwashed children.

On a personal note, since the only real "win" Westboro Baptist Church can ever have is public acknowledgement of their pathetic hatemongering, I continually struggle with the decision to post anything about them at all. At the same time, ignoring them completely and doing nothing is really hard for me. So, with my apologies, here you go - one more Westboro post. At least this time it was good news.
