Westboro Baptist Church
I've never shared this with you, but I feel like I should have.
Several months ago, the Westboro Baptist Church ("God hates fags") protested at the high school my brother and I graduated from. My brother heard about this, and went back up to the school to go protest them. He borrowed some army gear from his room mate, with the intention of being there to support the troops the church were protesting. At one point, someone started handing out signs to the student protesters, and my brother thought that it would be fun to also be gay for a day (his words).

Of course, someone took his picture. Which he then posted to Facebook for the whole family to see.
The best part of this story is what happened about a week after that, though. Someone apparently saw him at this protest, and posted a m4m Craigslist ad, hoping to hook up with Terry. I don't know if he ever responded; I only saw him post the link to Facebook.
