The same reason they always do: Attention. They're like the religious extremist version of a kid pulling on their mother's leg and yelling "mooooommyyyyyy!" Only instead they picket high-profile funerals.dantoddd said:what's the deal with the wesbro church? Why are they picketting?
I'm fairly sure those guys have Picketted other funerals and while it may get on everyone's nerves, we can't suppress their right to free speech.All Hail Lelouch said:RIP Steve Jobs.
UPDATE: To make matters far, far worse. The detested Westboro Baptist Church has announced that they will be Picketting Steve Jobs' Funeral. This crosses a sacred line for me. You never, NEVER, insult or desecrate a man on the same day that he died.

I suppose you could argue that he should be remembered because of his achievements, as opposed to remembering the talentless hacks that haven't done anything for the world.Peteron said:Yes, yes it is.bbad89 said:Oh look, it's this topic again...Peteron said:Yeah, many other people passed away too. Just because he is famous doesn't mean I should care for him more than anyone else.
I just meant Apple just dominates the market in those things. It may not be a good thing necessarily, but it's still an impressive feat.Eoghain Macleod said:Yes.erztez said:Wait, so now we give people respect for attempting to circumvent antitrust laws?Mezmer said:No matter how you feel about apple, the man pioneered the home computer, graphical user interface, and basically monopolized the MP3 Player, Music and Tablet markets. I salute you Mr. Jobs. Rest in Peace.
When did this happen?
Why was I not informed?
I DEMAND ANSWERS!
Last Wednesday.
And we didn't think you'd care so much.
...........All Hail Lelouch said:According to my Local News Channel. They say that Steve Jobs Passed away only a few minutes before this post. Can anyone find an internet source to confirm or disprove this?
As you all know, Steve Jobs was the CEO of Apple Corporation. The Possibility of his death leaves me wondering what will happen to Apple as a whole.
Edit: Thanks for the help guys. http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/ Apple itself has confirmed that Steve Jobs has indeed Passed away. It is a sad day for all Apple Users.
RIP Steve Jobs.
