Note they don't identify WHO the protesters are. More proof our media sucks.

And yes, according to friends who were there, it was the Phelps.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Security was put on high alert today in the Power & Light District as protestors made their way through the crowds at the Show-Me Pride Fest.

We’re told security had to follow the protestors around because so many festival goers became angry. That’s because the protestors were shouting Bible verses and declared homosexuality an abomination.

Festival goers say they are frustrated by the whole incident.

"I just don't get why,” said Thomas Schlumm. “What is everyone doing here but enjoying one another? It's all about equality and love for one another, and they're here to fight it."

4. not (only) Phelps, if even

Signs weren't usual, "Hate," text like they're using at the funerals.

Looked more local to KC, I watched 2 vans unload, looked like urban (KC) black church (and another).

Up-tic in area bashings rate is alarming.

13. Welcome to DU...

Seems so foreign to me that people living in the same US as me can
exhaust so much energy on trying to stop equal rights for fellow
Americans.

10. If it was the Phelps' then I'm glad they weren't named

Phelps is an attention seeking, control freak who wants to see his name in the papers and his picture on the TV.

12. We had several at Raleigh's Outfest (kind of a kid friendly pride)

They literally shouted at us from every corner.
