Phelps-A-Thon

Driving Equality an 85 day activist trip across America promoting LGBT understanding and tolerance and culminating in a documentary is hosting a Phelps-A-Thon today.

For every minute the “God Hates Fags” clan is protesting, they will be collecting donations for Driving Equality.

The point of the Phelps-A-Thon is two fold. First, they are using Phelps own hateful message to raise funds for a good cause, one that will help counter the lies that are being spread about LGBT people. Second, they will be displaying a sign in front of the “God Hates Fags” clan tallying how much money they have helped raise for LGBT equality. This will certainly upset the group and it is possible that they will leave early to stop the fundraising.
