so utterly, completely inexcuseably contemptable!

So - Gunn High School here in Palo Alto has seen a tragic deaths of four of their young people committing suicide in front of Caltrain trains this year.

I wish I was making that up - it sounds so unbelievable. The campus has been struggling to find healing and to help the students make sense of these awful events.

so - Fred Phelps and Co - sang outside of Gunn High School yesterday - to the tune of "America the Beautiful," Phelps and the other Westboro protesters sang: "Oh Sodomites, your kids are killed by trains. Your moral compasses are broken, your teachers are to blame."

Such terrible, awful hate speech. Oh how I dislike this. it makes my blood boil.

It is impossible for me to have compassion for such terrible people.
