To add to what Blitanicle said:
Me and him are close friends and both of us were friends of hers. So we were hanging out with a lot of old friends last night, kind of a memorial party for her. Anyways, he was giving me a ride back to my house this morning and there were already multiple police vehicles, from what it looked like, setting up an area for the protesters when they arrive. The temple is on the way home for me. Guys, I have sent them email after email. My first one was just angry and bashing them because, one I am a Christian and it makes me sick to be associated with these people, and two I was very close to Lauren for a while and you seriously have never met a sweeter person. I know a lot of people say that about others and it is kind of cliche, but ask anyone that knew her. She was one of the most loving people I have ever met. So anyways, I sent them a couple more that were more mature and were just telling them to have respect for the mourning family and not come. They have said nothing back. I won't say one way or the other as to what y'all should do, but those of you that have voiced opinions wanting to do something I will not stop you. The family has asked us not to do a thing and just ignore them and I will be inside the funeral, but if one of you comes back with a good story to me, I will personally buy you a steak dinner. The fact that someone could say mean and hateful things and protest a funeral is absolutely disgusting. If it were up to me these **** suckers would die slowly. Of course that would be wrong, but I would be lying if I said I don't wish the worst on them. Anyways, thanks a lot to all of y'all that have been supportive towards this whole thing. Here's something I found that brought a smile on my face...
