Tastless protesting

I was ready the inter-webs today and noticed a story that really makes you hate people, especially people who think they are standing for a cause. I read this article on MSNBC and felt disgusted.

The whole death of Heath Ledger is tragic. Period. Anyone dying that young is tragic, regardless of how he/she dies, or if they are famous or not.

The fact that a Baptist Church is going to protest his funeral is disgusting. They say his character in Brokeback Mountain calls God a liar and said its Okay to be gay. In all actuality those lines are never said in the movie. Both of the characters are married with children, they are jsut also in love with each other. Plus he is playing a character in a movie, Heath Ledge did not stand up and say God hates gay people. Even if he did, he died tragically, respect him and his loved ones. If these people actually go there and protest this I hope there are snipers around. Makes me sick.
