Pot: Westboro Baptist at Pueblo, CO

Many expressed surprise that Westboro Baptist Church actually showed up in Pueblo to picket the retail marijuana stores there. Counter protesters greatly outnumbered them, but the cold nasty weather encouraged everyone to make their point and go home where it’s warm.

WB was trying to make a point about gays and marijuana. I’ve never understood what those people are talking about, but they don’t like homosexuals. I’ve never heard of an association of marijuana with homosexuality, nor is there even a gender difference. Well, guys generally buy the pot and girls generally get it for free, but I don’t think Westboro is being that thoughtful about it. Anyway, WB sees an association, I guess.

Westboro Baptist got what they wanted, a few minutes on TV and some chat on the internet. Including here.
