The people speak

Ok, this is so much cooler than a lawsuit.

People in Weston, Missouri banded together on Saturday. They wanted to protect loved ones who were saying goodbye to a fallen soldier and stood up to members of the Westboro Baptist Church who planned to protest at Sgt. First Class C.J. Sadell's funeral.

And protect them they did. The Phelps-bots gave up and went home. Yeah, maybe they'll be better prepared next time, but this just goes to show what a community can accomplish when it bands together. Kudos to Weston, MO!

And watch the video.
