Westboro is in Kansas but they seem to show up in a lot of different places. Their leader is Fred Phelps; most of the members of the 'church' seem to be related to him by blood or by marriage. Their lawyer, who is related to Phelps, is currently arguing a free speech case before the Supreme Court saying that the church has a right to protest at funerals or anywhere else they choose. They protest at service members' funerals saying they were killed because the US allows homosexuals (though that's not the word they use) to live. I went to their website once to check it out but got so sickened and disgusted with the hate rhetoric I couldn't even finish reading it.
