In a tweeting binge following the explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, the Westboro Baptist Church celebrated the carnage and announced its intention to picket the funerals of victims.

The tiny Topeka, Kan., fundamentalist group urged the U.S. government to "reinstate" the death penalty for homosexuality and warned "violence will fully consume u [sic]" if that doesn't happen. Most of the church's tweets said same-sex marriage caused the bombing, but others mentioned abortion and supposed mistreatment of the church.

A news release dated April 15 announced the church's intention to picket the funerals of the three bombing victims. Massachusetts, the release says, "invited this special wrath from God Almighty when it was the FIRST STATE to pass same-sex marriage" in 2004. "Westboro Baptist Church to picket funerals of those dead by Boston Bombs! GOD SENT THE BOMBS IN FURY OVER FAG MARRIAGE! #PraiseGod," said a tweet from the church's @WBCFliers account.

"THANK GOD FOR THE BOSTON MARATHON BOMBS!! Westboro Baptist Church to picket funerals of those killed. #PraiseGod," said another tweet from the @WBCSays account.

The church did not respond to an email from U.S. News seeking details about the picket plans. The church's phone line was consistently busy Tuesday. There are no Massachusetts events currently listed on the church's online protest schedule.

A similar plan by the church to picket the funeral of the elementary school principal who was murdered in the December Newtown, Conn., school shooting was unsuccessful, The Huffington Post reported, because volunteers blocked access to the funeral until church members changed their plans.

One tweet from @WBCSays Tuesday featured a photo of a man comforting a female victim with blood splattered along a Boston sidewalk. "LOOK at this image - sent directly fm God! He promised to cast ur bloody carcasses on ur flag idol! #WBCIsSoThankful," said the church.

Church pastor Fred Phelps - the aging patriarch who is related to most congregation members - said in a comment released on Twitter, "God is busy punishing those who've mistreated His people for preaching." Another tweet said, "Memo to Boston police: Is it time to re-think that mistreat and abuse WBC policy you implemented many years ago?!?!"

The church also said that the death of 8-year-old Martin Richard was God's punishment. "His blood is on YOUR hands. Died for #SSM," tweeted church member Margie Phelps.

The church is infamous for picketing the funerals of fallen soldiers with vulgar anti-gay signs and posters. They often picket for maximum exposure and are frequently greeted by irate locals.

A significant stream of income for the church comes from lawsuits, many arguing that state and local laws – or enforcement of the laws – violate members' First Amendment rights.

In reaction to Westboro's spiteful piety, a petition on the White House's "We the People" website urges authorities to "ban" the church members from entering Boston.

Watch what you say my corpulent son, I still hear all and see all,
and I'm still known for my temper.
Been to Atlantic City lately?

A union that results in the natural creation of a child should be given some specific name, shouldn't it?

And so there is: 'fucking.'

The gays engage in that too via a different route.

You aren't really so stupid as to go to the "marriage is for the purpose of child creation" card, are you?


Oh wait...yes you are.

One could just as easily surmise from that bombing that God hates people and their families who eat Cliff Bars.

Think of it as God's way of dropping a turd in our punchbowl of spineless, mewling capitulation to the most vulgar and despicable deviants society can muster.

He just might. You have to stay on your toes these days.

I thought MVS was an Athiest

Isn't that like Ray Charles describing the Sistine Chapel?

Who the fuck said anything about marriage? It appears that you've been sucking on kiddy cock so hard you're suffering from oxygen deprivation. Come up for air sometime.

No, the discussion here is whether or not the WBC is right in their assertion that God hates fags. I have to say that they have a good deal of evidence to support their position.

I think the most compelling bit of proof is that, well, he made them fags then he nuked their cities and, more recently, gave them AIDS. Look around. At best, fags are the objects of pity. Is anybody on earth crossing his fingers and hoping that his son will take dicks in his ass and chug cocks when he grows up? Don't think so.

I'm just not seeing a lot of love from the Big Guy when it comes to 'mos. I have to concur. God does hate fags.

Dude have you ever had a Macadamia chocolate Clif bar? Holy shit, they're so good they almost taste like the sweetest vagina you've ever tasted.
