Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false and by the rulers as useful

Anything for a headline.

To be fair to them, they at least have something of a point; she is a hypocrite extreme. The Bible does expressively condemn what she did. I want to see the WBC gone as much as the next guy, but in this case...

Ooooooo kaaaaay..

Well, the sad issue is, when you have a hate group like wbc against her, all that does is give her supporters more fuel to use in a campaign

They're a cult who hates everyone who's not a member of their inbred flock - they've even protested other fundamentalist like Jerry Falwell, so no big surprise.

Even Phelps himself got excommunicated before his death for allegedly apologizing to gays.

Eventually they'll eat themselves up, especially considering how many family members have defected from the cult.

Now that I recall, didn't one of the cult members - I think even Shirley Phelps Roper herself have sex out of wedlock with a man prior to getting married? I heard it somewhere.

WBC are protesting her for getting divorced a bunch of times. 

On one hand it serves her right for denying gay marriage certificates.

On the other hand, she shouldn't be shame for that.  She should be shamed for refusing gay marriage certificates.

Two wrongs don't make a right.  But two right wing groups going against each other is pretty entertaining at least.

The Oathkeepers are pledging to make sure she doesn't go to jail again. That (and her not breaking any laws or regulations) should guarantee that.
