Angels Arrived In Orlando To Block Anti-Gay Protesters During Funerals

June 19, 2016

Many funerals were held this weekend in Orlando for some of the 49 victims of last week's shooting at Pulse nightclub.

The Westboro Baptist Church traveled to Orlando to protest.

Carrying offensive signs and chanting hateful slogans, protesters tried to interrupt Saturday’s funerals.

But their view was blocked by a group of heavenly volunteers dressed as Angels.

Hundreds of people also reinforced the angels by singing "Amazing Grace" to drown out the protestor's hateful chants:
