Members of the Westboro Baptist Church on Sunday staged a protest at Central Junior High School in Moore, Okla., KFOR-TV reported.
The anti-gay group notorious for protesting military funerals wrote on its website that it would protest Moore because the massive tornado that devastated the town last year was "God's wrath" against "phony 'Christians.'"
The residents of Moore lined up across the street from the Westboro picketers in a counter-protest.
Westboro had a permit to hold a 30-minute protest, but the counter-protesters chased members of the Westboro Baptist Church away a few minutes past their limit, according to KFOR.

Westboro and their like make me sick!
This is what the Moore Tornado did......
Were these children considered "phony Christians" by God Westboro?
An aerial view of Briarwood Elementary school destroyed
or how about from Highland East Junior high?
What about the children from Plaza Towers Elementary School?
Were they "phony Christians" and deserving of God's wrath too?
GOOD GRIEF! SCREW YOU WESTBORO!
I'm proud of the Oklahoma residents of Moore, Oklahoma and the surrounding communities who were there, who stood up to your HATE!

misunderstood the statement I was replying to. I was asking "why" I should not give the Moore residents(who are not WBC), too much credit for chasing off WBC. The Moore crowd as the poster called them, were the victims of the Moore tornado in 2013. The tornado that was supposedly God's wrath against phony Christians, according to WBC.
