5-year-old stands up to church of hate

A round of applause to young Jayden Sink, a 5-year-old girl in Topeka, Kan., who is making a stand with a lemonade stand against hate.

Jayden set up a lemonade stand on Friday across the street from the controversial Westboro Baptist "Church" and raised more than $10,000 in the name of peace.

Westboro is hardly a church, but an extended family that has gained national attention by mocking or threatening to mock funerals of fallen soldiers over the years. Their message is the soldiers deserved to die because God is punishing the United States because of a tolerance of gays.

Jayden, with a big assist from her father, Jon, sold "Pink Lemonade for Peace" from her stand outside the Equality House, a rainbow-painted building across the street from the controversial "church's" headquarters.
