It’s a small thing, only doing $10,000 worth of damage, but the location is newsworthy.
A fence and garage at Fred Phelps’ Westboro Baptist Church became engulfed in flames early Saturday, according to the Topeka Capitol-Journal Web site. The fire did not spread to the church building.
The cause of the fire is unknown, and I sincerely hope it wasn’t arson — setting homes on fire is not the way to settle grievances, even against people as despicable as the Phelps clan.
