Comic-Con Hilariously Strikes Back Against Hate Church

[Shoggoth2588]

Is there a source with more photos? I would love to see more signs and what-not.

WIN... Overload...

I wish I was there...

if more people do this back at them, will they finally shut the fuck up?

Not likely, they feed on attention like some kind of leech, any publicity is good publicity to them...

 

[Vrex360]

I have to say, that's pretty cool.

Go the nerds and our unfailing ability to annoy stupid people.

 

[godofallu]

I would gladly picket with my own sign, or buy those that did a beer.

God that is great, although it won't solve anything. Those people will still be crazy tomorrow.

 

[Deofuta]

snip!
Please tell me he was wearing an animal mask there.

Check it out

This is so full of win, I can lose everything else in my life and still feel awesome.

Although I do wish someone thought to bring fake Jarate to the protest... that would've livened it up no end...

Say, I wonder if Indiana Jones was there, holding a sign saying "All religions are right! (I just can't Prove it)" That would've been awesome.

 

[WorldCritic]

The nerds have had their revenge.

 

[Nouw]

Thats how we do it!

Same here.

God, it would have been awesome if there were two Team Fortress 2 Scouts (one Blu, one Red) and both had signs attached to their bats, the Red one w/ a sign that says "God Hates Blus" and the Blu w/ a sign that says "God Hates Reds". Of course, the two of them would have to be right by one another.

Maybe next time this 'church' wishes to protest a mass gathering of geeks and nerds. Maybe next time...

PASS THE MUTANT REGISTRATION ACT NOW

ah classic...too perfect (yeah my comic book experiences revolved around X-Men lol)

 

[pwnzerstick]

My sign would say, "Ceeling cat hatz teh stoopids"

 

[Bofore13]

Nerd rage has been replaced with Christian rage.
Edit.
Hey look what I found.

Someone needs to stop these guys. I'm a Southern Baptist and I can tell you're we're not like this. This is like...some kind of 1400's BS thats going on. I'm a Christian AND a nerd, and I'm pretty sure I don't have the plague. These guys can do some serious damage, though, if people start to think all of us are like them. Maybe thats their real goal, or something. Maybe they're just all on crack.

But seriously, you don't troll nerds. Hopefully they've learned by now that the nerds troll back. I wonder how long it's gonna take before one of these days all the police protection in the world won't stop these guys from getting themselves beat down. Heck, assuming they are Christians in even some sense of the word, then maybe they should reread their Bibles. I believe that what they're doing is one of those things that anger God personally. I'm not sure, but I'd rather not take that chance.

I salute to the geeks who counter Religious Bigotry with Satire and Humor. Fight On, Nerdy Ones.

 

[DanDeFool]

I love the "Is This Thing On?" protest sign.

 

[Taddy]

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite news post of the day.

I'm Commander Shep- dammit ninja'd.

 

[AceDiamond]

Only thing that would've made it better is if someone infiltrated the WBC protest with an "ASSUMING CONTROL OF THIS PROTEST" sign.

 

[FactualSquirrel]

My favourite was the "Hallo. My name is Inigo Montoya" one.

But yeah, that was awesome.

 

[Valksy]

I laughed at "Is this thing on?" and nodded in happy approval at the geek-fu being deliciously executed by those most splendid people at Comic Con. I /salute them all.

And kudos for keeping it calm and peaceful. Bad luck Phelps cult, no money from lawsuits for you.....

 

[AwesomeFerret]

+2 internets to the nerds!

And a cake.
