Westboro Baptist Church protests Lorde concert and are met with class.

[Contrary1]

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - 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."

1. I think it should have said

"Galatians 6:7"

If the church had any class, they'd HAVE a funeral for Phelps, and risk having it boycotted -- oh wait, he was excommunicated...

3. ha! looks like a fun night in KC... Royals present photo and jersey to musician Lorde

Teen music sensation Lorde was in Kansas City on Friday for a concert at the Midland. You know Lorde, right?
She won a Grammy Award for the song “Royals,” which she said was was inspired by a photo of George Brett in an issue of National Geographic from the 1970s.

Lorde told VH1 earlier this year: “I had this image from the National Geographic of this dude just signing baseballs. He was a baseball player and his shirt said ‘Royals.’ ”
Yep, the story has been told countless times now.

Anyway, that dude (Brett) signed a copy of the photo that spawned a hit, and the Royals gave that to Lorde along with a Brett jersey, which she donned for one of the pictures the Royals tweeted on Friday night.

5. My sign would have simply asked: WHERE'S FRED'S GRAVE?

Simply because when the WBC is awesome, America suffers.

4. Weak

And unfortunately, it shows that WBC has enough hate to carry on without its founder.
