Brooklyn Tech 1, Westboro Baptist Church 0

A dozen or so of those gutless lunatics from the Westboro Baptist Church showed up in Brooklyn yesterday to spread Christ's words of forgiveness and love. The only problem? Over 200 Brooklyn Tech students found out about the protest in advance, organized, and staged a much bigger counter-protest.
Outnumbered by nearly 200 students from Brooklyn Technical High School, the Westboro Baptist Church protesters, escorted by police officers, left the corner of Fort Greene Place and Fulton Street at 3:45, 15 minutes earlier than scheduled. (The protest had been scheduled for 3:20 p.m. to 4 p.m.)
Be sure to scroll down and read young Brian Benavidess sign near the bottom of the post. Such a clever little bastard.
