A Kansas church infamous for its protests at funerals plans to protest at the Saturday funeral of Elizabeth Edwards.
The Westboro church plans to protest for 45 minutes before the funeral set for 1 p.m. at Edenton Street United Methodist Church in downtown Raleigh, according to the church's website.
Let's create a human buffer between Elizabeth Edwards and the Westboro church
• This will be a powerful and peaceful gathering.
• Remain on city property.
• Do not under any circumstance touch any member of the WBC.
• Do not say or chant anything that acknowledge WBC's presence.
• Police officer(s) will most likely stand between us and WBC to ensure peace.
• Anyone making a physical threat can be arrested for disturbing the peace.
We respectfully request that the media keep cameras and microphones off of the WBC group and report on the funeral and the outpouring of the community's support.
Permit Status:
