After the Westboro Baptist Church announced they were going to protest Panic! At the Disco’s Kansas City, Mo., show Sunday night, the band fought for what is right. They posted the following on twitter:
Today @WBCSays is going to picket us. For every member of WBC that actually shows up we will donate $20 to @HRC #pride2014

Panic! frontman Brendon Urie has been open about experimenting “in other realms of homosexuality and bisexuality.”
What is this @PanicAtTheDisco tripe? There’ll be panic at the second coming of Christ! (Rev. 6:16) pic.twitter.com/09tBS4dpZX @ZackCloudHall — Westboro Baptist (@WBCSays) July 21, 2014
The protest was lame, both in reason and attendance, with only 13 protesters. The band ended up donating $1000 plus 5% of all merchandise sold to the Human Rights Campaign.
