After Brad Paisley trolled the hate-trolls of the Westboro Baptist Church back a few weeks ago by taking a selfie with them, you would have thought that would have been the end of their interaction. Turns out, however, that you'd be wrong because it looks like the "church" is now a little obsessed with Mr. Paisley.
Guess they liked all that free publicity.
On Wednesday, the WBC sent out a few tweets to Brad and others who were talking about the famous selfie.
Your mocking selfie w/ WBC is a CLEAR violation of your Free Masonry oath to tolerate other's religion, @BradPaisley! pic.twitter.com/TyuSA78tdc

And like an old girlfriend who just won't go away, they were back for more on Friday.

After three days (and maybe more, I couldn't stomach going any further back) of the WBC going after him on Twitter, Brad finally responded by simply saying, "Bad squirrel" in response to the picture of the water skiing squirrel from his River Bank video that the church had been posting.
Sheesh. Talk about getting virtually harassed.
