Beiber meet the Bible Belt

Westboro Baptist church in Kansas are picketing at Justin Bieber's concert today in Kansas! They believe: 


"Justin Bieber has a platform given to him by God to speak to this world; he has a duty to teach obedience by his actions and words. He refuses to do that because he knows his concert halls would be empty! So, he teaches you to sin and rebel against God's commandments."


I attempted to make this article funny, and it kinda sort of is... attempting to have an affect on a Bieber fan about to enter his concert is probably about as successful as preaching to a brick wall... The fans are going to be EXTREMELY EXCITED if not HYSTERICAL (THE Justin Bieber is just metres away!!!!). But on the none- funny side of life, its quite disturbing how passionate people can be about what they believe... just read a few of those signs. The church is also quite notorious for more extremist picketing- like at funerals of soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq with signs saying "thank god for dead soldiers".But back to the funny... later this month they plan to Picket at Lady gaga's concert..Good luck with THAT one, if she doesn't give them a run for their money her number one fan Perez Hilton DEFINITELY will!!


P.s. As if Bieber even cares! He's r-o-l-l-i-n-g in it.
