Nonprofit Group Buys House and Paints It

The Westboro Baptist Church has a colorful new neighbor, and Roy G. Biv isn't going anywhere. The nonprofit group Planting Peace purchased a home across the street from the controversial church and painted the whole exterior the gay pride flag. Aaron Jackson, a member of Planting Peace, noticed the house was for sale when messing around with Google Maps, "The idea came right away: buy it and paint the colors of the pride flag." A member of the church claimed he was not worried, "I think it's amazing. I thank God for that house, because what is does is shine a brighter light on our message."
