Anti-gay hate group calls Radiohead "freak monkeys with mediocre tunes"
Radiohead At Ease points out that Radiohead's concert this weekend in Kansas City, Missouri was met with protesters from the Topeka, Kansas hate group Westboro Baptist Church.
As At Ease notes, a note on the Westboro website about the protest referred to Radiohead as "freak monkeys with mediocre tunes" who "keep you busy and focused by lightness." It continues:
You try to get the people to look at the nonsense and not at the wrath of God that abides upon them. "Look at the circus monkey over there and the fluffy setting, blah, blah..." Meanwhile, God is undoing this nation and effecting all of your lives, with the moth that quietly eats the very fabric of your national garment. Radiohead is just such an event.
Nigel Godrich joked on Twitter that it was the "highlight of the tour so far."

I think every Meade Skelton show should be protested on the street corners of Richmond.

I live for the day those Westboro douchebags protest the wrong funeral, and get the severe beating they deserve.
