American Atheists were present to counter - demonstrate at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, in January 2011 to protest the Westboro Baptist church. Five atheists from Salt Lake Valley Atheists and about 200 people including actor and director Kevin Smith participated in the protest. We passed out copies of the American Atheist magazine that featured an earlier protest of of the hate group. Lots of fun and action.

Hmm ... Do we really hate RACIST'S ?

WHOM DO WE HATE?

To be fair, this photo may not be from the Westboro Baptists' intellectual's body of work; I don't know. The source is from Anu Garg's FREE Word-A-Day (original) :

"So many people to hate, so little time. If there's an apostrophe hell this has to be it. If you see that fellow with his banner, ask him, "Why do you ♥ the apostrophe so much? Repent and believe in grammar."

But don't let that banner push you away from apostrophes either. There are places where an apostrophe has its place. Each of this week's terms answers the question: Whose what? And each of them takes an apostrophe. Go ahead, add one to each term every time you write it -- you can do so religiously, without thinking.

Rest assured there's no hell, grammar or otherwise. You don't need to pay for the overuse of apostrophes in another life. Overall, the universe's apostrophe store stays in balance. It seems our linguistic world was intelligently designed -- for every gratuitous apostrophe there's an instance where it's to be omitted.

My thank's to the reader who sent me that mans photo."

Westboro Baptist Church Pickets Liquor Store Over Phelps Death Discount

An Oklahoma liquor store is offering 10% off on champagne in honor of the death of Fred Phelps.

To commemorate the occasion, Moore Liquor decided to have a champagne sale and posted a sign reading, “Fred Phelps 1929-2014, Champagne 10% off! Not a coincidence.” The WBC doesn’t find the sign funny and plans to protest.
