It is far better for people to hate you for doing the right thing than for people to love you for doing the wrong thing. Never ever forget that.

Louis Theroux did an episode where he got to know the WBC people, joined them in their protest. At one point some rednecks in a pickup truck threw a cup filled with urine at some small children protesting.

I do get why people hate them. At the same time I think they expose just how flexible the interpretation of religion can be.
