[quote:Anonymous Coward 1416111:MV8xNTQ5MTQ5XzI1NTgzMDIxXzQ5QzM4RDAw] Aha! So that's why Westboro's lunatics are allowed to go almost anywhere and protest soldier's funerals without fear or reprisals from anyone. How these people are still alive WAS a mystery, now that mystery is solved. [/quote]
Original Message
The FBI said Wednesday that members of an anti-gay fundamentalist group participated in the bureau's training of police officers and FBI agents - a move the bureau says it will take steps to remedy in the future.
The bureau extended the invitations to Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan., for training this spring at two bureau facilities in Virginia: Quantico and Manassas.
Westboro has stirred widespread outrage with raucous demonstrations at the funerals of U.S. military service members. The group contends God is punishing the military for the nation's tolerance of homosexuality.
National Public Radio first reported the FBI's involvement with Westboro.
At FBI headquarters in Washington, bureau spokesman Paul Bresson acknowledged that Westboro was invited to the training sessions.
