Post Fort Bragg Military Wives Oppose Westboro Church "gospel picket" Spec. Touma's Death

FAYETTVILLE, N.C. — Some Fort Bragg wives say they’ll oppose a fundamentalist church’s plan to celebrate the death of a pregnant soldier.

The Fayetteville Observer reported Wednesday a Kansas church plans a "gospel picket" on the death of 23-year-old Army Spc. Megan L. Touma. Police Sgt. John Somerindyke says Westboro Baptist Church is seeking a city permit for July 16.

The church has organized harassment of mourners at funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, saying war casualties are divine revenge for America tolerating gays and lesbians.

No messages could be left at the church’s telephone number, according to the newspaper.

Touma was found dead at a Fayetteville motel June 21. No arrests have been made.

Danell Shafer of Fort Bragg Mommies said they will oppose the church’s picket.
