You Will Eat Your Babies? Westboro Baptists Protest at MD High School

A small group of crazies from the Westboro Baptist Church protested at Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda, MD, yesterday because the school was named after a gay man. The Washington Post story states that about 500 students from the school staged a counter protest.

One of the Westboro signs read, "You will eat your babies." Where does that even come from? I am sure the Gap loves the fact that one of the Westboro protestors was wearing a t-shirt with "GAP" across her ample bosom. Unfortunately, the biggest gap seemed to be in her education.

The good news is that the Walt Whitman students shouted down the crazies big time. It is hard to imagine that happening when I was in high school. Some change is a good thing.
