Anonymous hacks the Westboro Baptist Church

First things first, let me just get this right out of the way: BAHAHAHAHAHA!

Okay, schadenfreudian laughter is out in the open. Let’s move on. The Westboro Baptist Church, the famewhorin’est church ever to receive tax-exempt status, decided to protest the funerals of the victims of the Newtown massacre. No, we’re not really sure why either. Do you really want to dive into that kind of logic?

Well, in response to that amazing display of man’s inhumanity to man, hacktivist group Anonymous decided to out the lot of them by hacking the WBC’s personal information and posting it on the internet. Ah hell, one more round of schadenfreudian laughter. All together now: BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
