What the Protesters Said

As if you didn't know, Westboro Baptist Church held a rally here at AU yesterday to protest "Fag-Infested American University." AU students organized a counter demonstration across the street to reaffirm the school's commitment to tolerance; it was "a great success," with a turnout of about "1,000 to 1,200 people" according to organizer Jonathan Lipton, a freshman at AU. AU students were prevented from engaging directly with protesters, but if you want to hear what they were saying, we have some video.

Previously, such activities were prohibited due to the ROTC program’s discriminatory “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy (DADT), which does not allow openly homosexual individuals to participate.
