All Major Airlines: revoke frequent flier plans, and put members of WBC on no fly status

For years Westboro Baptist Church has harassed people and organizations indiscriminately with a message of hatred. They spend $250,000 a year flying to picket the funerals of soldiers, violent deaths, and AIDS victims. They also bring their message of hate to schools, claiming that it is because the government supports gay rights. By doing this they rack up frequent flier miles which reduces their travel costs and gets them perks. If they are unable to fly or get reduced fare it will limit their ability to propagate hatred indiscriminately. Please stand up against this group who has been quoted as saying their mission is to "spread God's Hate - Shirley Phelps-Roper" and as airlines refuse them service because of them being a hate group.

This Petition to Add the Westboro Baptist Church to the No-Fly List is Kind of Amazing
Real talk, we get a few hundred petition requests sent to us here at Unicorn Booty each month, so we have a general policy of not publishing any of them. Its not that they arent good ideas. Well, honestly thats usually not true now that I think about it. But sorting through the enormous mountain on them would mean that no other work would get done around here.
So imagine my surprise today to stumble upon this breathtakingly fantastic petition that seeks to solve the problem of how to prevent the Westboro Baptist Church from terrorizing their fellow citizens.
Seattle resident Aaron McCartney has a plan to do exactly that! Namely, petition the major airlines to add the hate group to their no-fly list, stripping them of their ability to target schools and funerals with their particular brand of hostility.
