Westboro Baptist Church greeted by over 500 counter-protesters in Blacksburg, VA
Six members from the Westboro Baptist Church traveled to Blacksburg on Friday to protest America’s growing acceptance of gays, the Obama administration and Jews who refuse to repent for the death of Jesus Christ.
Their songs and chants were mostly drowned out by the car horns and voices of counter-demonstrators whom stood along Prices Fork Road.
Their presence downtown drew about 500 counterdemonstrators. Many held nonsensical signs that read, “What the french toast?” and “Pickle Your Kumquat.”
