kristen999An anti-gay protest from the Westboro Baptist Church at the massive comic convention Comic-Con has been muffled by a humorous counterprotest.
The Westboro Baptist church has gained notoriety for anti-gay and anti-government protests, picketing the funerals of US soldiers and celebrating the deaths of Michael Jackson and Heath Ledger.
But they met their match with convention-goers at the massive science fiction/comics event in San Diego, California, who countered the demonstration with witty signs, lurid costumes and mocking chants.
There was a sign that said "Apocalypse Coming? Don't worry, the Winchester Brothers Have it Covered", but I could not find a picture.
"What do we want? Gay sex! When do we want it? Now!" shouted members of the crowd.
The Westboro Baptist Church members soon left.......
