I just now heard about this. Over at Batman on film, and it seems so surreal.

Goodness f***ing gracious, some church activist group is actually going to protest at his funeral for his role in Brokeback Mountain.

Check the protest ad here.

I swear, I usually don't wish death upon anyone, but I wouldn't mind these pieces of s*** to rot in piss. Seriously, this is just unbe-f***ing-lievable.

The things I would do to those assholes if I were there. They're a disgrace to the word "human".

Words connot express just how angry I am with these monsters who claim to be Christians. Really... I bet these are the same kooks who protest at the funerals of dead soldiers, too. Shameful...

Actually, you're right -- they're the same guys most likely. These nutjobs preach that the U.S. deserves to be wiped off the face of the earth because gay marriage is permitted -- and that our military's lack of success in the middle east, Hurricane Katrina, and just about every disaster is the result of God's wrath.

Seriously, I don't understand why the Constitution protects ignorance and obvious attempts of just pissing people the f*** off. If I had the means, I would make the trip to personally prevent this protest from happening.

How many religious fanatics there are doing the exact opposite of what their religions preach... It sickens me. Advocates of intolerance all have their own fiery pit reserved in their version of hell.

What pisses me off the most about the protest ad is the fact that they are stating where Mr. Ledger went to after passing away. As if it were up to them. It is between God and Heath Ledger what happens- NOT up to the Westboro people.

Not to mention it is VERY tasteless of them to protest his funeral. Instead, they need to educate people against the dangers of drugs- since THAT is what killed Mr. Ledger.

As GK said, the WBC is known for this kind of bullsh*t. They only exist to piss EVERYONE off. Especially homosexuals but also Muslims, Blacks, Jews, Democrats, Republicans and even other Christians.

So, they all have passports and money to go to a funeral in Australia?

I am assuming, naturally, that his family will want him buried at home-- and I further assume that the group, SHOULD they actually find the means to get there and locate the funeral, will have the crap beat out of them by the fine Australian people (or intercepted at the airport and immediately deported).

That "group" is basically one family. The father should be arrested for child abuse because of how he's raised those kids all these years.

I heard about Heath's death yesterday, and I am saddened by it. I wasn't a fan of his work, but it's horrible that he had to die at such a young age. My condolences go out to his wife, daughter, other family members, fellow actors who knew him, and the fans who loved his movies. This is truly a tragic event.

As for these Baptists, they are idiots. Leave the man alone so that he can be mourned by those who loved him.
