J.K. Rowling Blasts Westboro Baptist Church In Epic Tweet Over Ireland Marriage

The anti-gay hate group often promises to picket the funerals of LGBT people, celebrities, and service members, but they sent out a new threat on Tuesday, promising to picket the wedding of two fictional, albeit beloved, characters.

Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling was only too happy to offer them her feelings on the subject...

@WBCsigns Alas, the sheer awesomeness of such a union in such a place would blow your tiny bigoted minds out of your thick sloping skulls.
