I just do not know what angers me more at this point.  Is it the words of a deranged killer or is it the picketing and words by a spiteful hate group that uses God’s name in vain.  The moral of the story here is, if we can abridge free speech that came from shock-jock in which he was thrown off the air; how come groups like the Westboro Church and the KKK speak out in hate and not be challenged? Where are religious leaders like Reverend Sharpton and Reverend Jessie Jackson?  Will they condemn the Westboro Church?  If they do not, I do hope that others will condemn their actions.  My continued prayers go out to the many victims of the Virginia Tech tragedy.  May they find solace in the days and months ahead.
