Westboro Baptist Church

Lisa Lampanelli vs. Westboro Baptist Church: Comedian Donates $50,000 To Gay Charity In Church's Name
The Westboro Baptist Church may have met its match in Lisa Lampanelli, longtime supporter of gay rights and Comedy's "lovable Queen of Mean."
Lampanelli recently told TMZ she would donate $1,000 to the Gay Men's Health Crisis organization for every Westboro Baptist Church member that showed up to protest her show in Topeka, Kansas. Well, now the nation's oldest HIV/AIDS prevention and service organization will be getting a hefty $50,000 check from Lampanelli -- in the church's name.
Nearly 50 people showed up to protest the show, some of whom you can see in the video below as Lampanelli greets them with a few zingers. After the show, Lampanelli tweeted that the GMHC would be getting $44,000, but after another count showed 48 protesters instead of 44, she updated again via Twitter: "I won't quibble. I'll make it an even $50,000!!!"

Nothing like a successful comedian to put her money where her mouth is.  Maybe every time these freaks protest we should all donate a dollar to a charity in this churches name.  The only criteria; it has to be a charity the Westboro Baptist Church would totally despise and it has to be a dollar for each of their protesters who show up.  Let’s fight their nonsense with dollars and cents!
