J.K. Rowling puts Westboro Baptist Church in their place over Irish marriage equality

We love this woman

J.K. Rowling takes on the bigots and wins.

After stating that Dumbledore and Gandalf could head over to Ireland and get married here, a union we’d be very happy to accommodate, Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling got an inevitably bigoted text from the nice people at the Westboro Baptist Church.

This was her original tweet…

Then that racist, homophobic, downright horrible shower of eejits piped up. And she was having none of it.

To reiterate, we love that woman.
