Superheroes vs. the Westborough Baptist Church


Fred Phelps and a handful of anti-gay loonies from his Westboro Baptist Church decided to picket Comic-Con in San Diego, but the nerds were ready for them:

Unbeknownst to the dastardly fanatics of the Westboro Baptist Church, the good folks of San Diego's Comic-Con were prepared for their arrival with their own special brand of superhuman counter protesting chanting "WHAT DO WE WANT" "GAY SEX" "WHEN DO WE WANT IT" "NOW!" while brandishing ironic (and some sincere) signs. Simply stated: The eclectic assembly of nerdom's finest stood and delivered.

There are more photos of the counter protest at the above link. It's really pretty funny - not as weird as the Westboro Baptist Church itself, but much more fun.
