Phelps and Pies…

I just found this over on go-fish and I FUCKING LOVE it so I had to pass it on. It seems that when charming ‘Reverend’ Fred Phelps showed up to protest the graduation ceremony for a Gay high school student receiving a Matthew Shepard scolarship the ‘Biotic Baking Brigade’ also chose to show up – pies in hand. The result? The school rallied in support of the student… I swear – good ol’ Mr Phelps has GOT to be the Christian Coalition and Colorado for Family Values’ worst nightmare – I LOVE IT…

Go check out her entry today… SO DAMN Funny and great.

And a few fun quotes:

“I think it’s made more people have Lincoln pride, and it’s unified our school,” said Jessica Reese, a junior at Lincoln.

Shannon Wenck, also a junior at Lincoln, agreed. She said the students have come together to back Carter.

“Even people who are homophobic support Julius,” she said.

Students and teachers all wore rainbow ribbons to Saturday’s ceremony in show of their support for Carter. Phelps’ group went to Drake University to stage another protest.

Thanks Nichole – you MADE MY MORNING! :):)
