Bad decision, or the worst decision? NPR reports that the FBI brought leaders from the gay-hating, Koran-buring, dead-soldier-funeral-picketing Westboro Baptist Church to base and had them help train agents. Prominent members of the generally despised church were asked to participate in sessions with the supposed aim of teaching FBI agents "how to stay measured when they are speaking with a witness or a suspect with whom they have a strong, visceral disagreement."Wait, what? Hmm, let's see here...
The FBI first invited the church group to address the FBI's law enforcement training classes back in 2008. And initially, there were no apparent problems. But the most recent sessions, including three at Quantico and one in Manassass, Va., stirred up controversy.
