WBC says they will picket Nimoy's funeral, they don't show up. Why?

They couldn't find it!

Westboro Baptist Church Wanted to Picket Leonard Nimoy’s Funeral… but They Couldn’t Find the Location

March 2, 2015 by Hemant Mehta 76 Comments


You’d think these people would’ve figured out by now to find the location of a funeral before saying they’re going to be there… but after Leonard Nimoy, the actor who played Mr. Spock on Star Trek, died a few days ago, they said they would be picketing his funeral.

That plan fell through, though, when they couldn’t find the location of the event:

and just issue the press releases, hoping to get attention and create a controversy. I wish the media would stop covering them and giving them what they want.
