Super Heroes vs. the Westboro Baptist Church



They've faced down humans time and time again, but Fred Phelps and his minions from the Westboro Baptist Church were not ready for the cosplay action that awaited them today at Comic-Con. After all, who can win against a counter protest that includes robots, magical anime girls, Trekkies, Jedi and...kittens?

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.

As you can see below, the fantastic fanboys delivered the the church a humorous dose of sweet fan justice. ComicsAlliance was there to witness the spectacle in full, which you can indulge in yourself after the jump.

Being a Christian I CANNOT refer to the Westboro group as Christians.  The Bible talks about Christians being known by they're love...that group has ANYTHING BUT.

The more 'carnal' side of me thinks this protest is absolutely hilarous.  And there is part of me that MAY have taken part of this protest on the comi-con side just because of the Westboro's hatred.  I really don't care what adults do, and as a matter of principle I support the Pink Pistols just because no one deserves to be beaten for their choices...even if I don't aggree with their choices.

So, in Support of the Comicon protest death to Jedi, Death to the Sith
