[Katie Perry] divorced her perverted yet strangely intelligent oddball husband Russell Brandt thus promoting adultery as well.

Remembering Robin: A Benefit for St. Jude; a counter to Westboro  "Our neighbors at the Westboro Baptist Church have announced their intention to protest the funeral of Robin Williams. In keeping with our philosophy of addressing acts of hate and intolerance with compassion and love, we are inviting the public to show their respect and support of a man who spent his life making others smile, who was always there for others in their time of need, and who supported the greater good through works of service and charity. Please join Planting Peace in counteracting the WBC’s message of hate through a fundraising event benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, a cause Mr. Williams passionately and publicly supported."    Donate here.
How sad that I know of no Islamic organizations like this. But I digress.

Westboro Baptist Church May ‘Protest’ at Robin Williams’ Funeral  "Westboro, a Kansas-based group [known] for hate-filled protests sometimes targeting gays and their supporters, has mentioned the idea of a protest on Twitter several times in recent days. But some who track the group note it often threatens protests that never materialize."
