Westboro Baptist Church stages a protest—and finds something they didn’t expect

It happened in Kansas City, where counter-protesters held signs expressing condolences at the death of the church’s founder:

Members of the Westboro Baptist Church continued their protests without their longtime pastor Fred Phelps outside the Midland Theatre in Downtown Kansas City.

More than 20 protesters protested pop star’s Lorde concert, however it was another message that stuck out. A group of counter protesters held up a sign that read “sorry for your loss.”

Megan Coleman helped make the sign.

“We realized that it wasn’t so much about antagonizing them,” she said, “but sending out the countered safe that we are here for people who need that message and need that positivity.”
