Photo essay: the WBC


Two members of the "Journey 4 Justice" group. A band of mostly veterans who drive their motorcycles to every WBC protest. Their goal is to drown out the WBC's message and put them to an end. Unfortunately I was unable to get an interview.

This young lady in the white shows the message the Miami student body was trying to convey...Peace over hate

These gentlemen in the truck caused almost shear pandamonium on spring street

Shriver courtyard is filled...warming to see how a student body can unite in order to stand up against hate

Almost impossible to see past all of the arms, heads, and flags

Students begin to bring out the flags they have brought in order to fight against this protest

Students are bunched on the corner in fear of being yelled at by police to stay on the sidewalk

The streets are so full...I can barely move!

The Miami University Police are in attendance as crowd control

The protest begins with the WBC holding up signs that say, "Fags are beasts and thank god for dead soldiers."
