Constance McMillen Ditches Itawamba Agricultural High School
Constance McMillen, our resident prom queen who’s in the middle of a lawsuit against Itawamba Agricultural High School for prohibiting her from bringing her girlfriend to prom, has transferred schools. She’ll finish high school in Jackson, some 200 miles northeast of her old classroom. She’ll be there just a few weeks: she graduates June 2, and will miss Westboro Baptist’s protests at Itawamba.
No. 3 ยท Devon wrote, “Why would the Westboros be protesting at the school that managed to cleanse their prom of the gays and special ed kids? Seems like they’re perfectly in line with WBC’s beliefs.”
Maybe the WBC people bought non-refundable airplane tickets.

On the other posts about this, people pointed out there is nothing that narrow minded bigots hate more than somebody pointing out their bigotry. That is why there is all the anger and attacks on her for “Getting Attention”. Of course they don’t want her to get attention, that would bring attention to their bigots.

Not everybody in the town was against her….but now everybody will get blamed regardless….

Actually, there’s a very good chance she will be with many of us counter-protesting Fred Phelps… (dignitycaravan dot com)
Also, Jackson is southwest of Itawamba.
