A member of Westboro Baptist Church, the group that is known for picketing funerals of soldiers and AIDS victims, says the group plans to picket Sandy Hook Elementary School, according to Examiner.com.
A day after Friday's shooting in Newtown, CT, where police said 20-year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother and then 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary, Westboro Baptist member Shirley Phelps-Roper posted a message on Twitter that the group would "sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment."

There are internet trolls and meatspace trolls, i.e., Westboro. They do it just to gain attention and stir up emotions. Someday they'll choose the wrong funeral to harass and someone will pull a weapon. I hope volunteers will form a protective barrier between the Westies and the normal people, as has happened many times before.
