Grady High students to counter Westboro Church protestors

The fight against The Sign People rages on

Normally, we’d never recommend people attend protests organized by Westboro Baptist Church, that incredibly misguided bunch of performance artists who make sensational signs in their noble quest to appear on every local TV news station. (No one has any idea of what these people hope to achieve, but dammit, they’ve got signs, so let’s pay attention.)

But this protest is different.

On May 6 at 3:10 p.m, we recommend you actually do stop by the group’s planned protest near Grady High School. A Grady student is organizing a counter-protest in which participants will spread messages of love and collect donations for two good causes.
