Since March second, the Westborough Baptist Church has been attending military funerals chanting phrases such as, “Thank God for dead soldiers” and “Thank God for IEDs.” One of the representatives from the church stated that, “God is punishing us for being to accepting of homosexuals in our country, by killing off our soldiers.”
A group of motorcyclists came to one of the church's protests and revved up their engines so that the people at the funeral wouldn’t have to hear what the protestors were saying. These actions have left many people angered. A teacher at Hopkinton high school says that it is very inappropriate and that they look foolish. Just think about how the families of the deceased veterans feel about these protests. Many people feel that these people are so strong in how they feel, that they will never stop doing things like this.
