Fighting free speech with free speech

On rare occasions the antics of a frat house are not only appropriate but a delight. I know it is rare because as an undergrad my dorm window faced a block of 6 houses. But in this case… Members of the Fred Phelps clan came to picket the University of Chicago (because Obama taught there? Sheesh, guys give it rest) and the nearby Chicago Theological Seminary (a seminary with a frat house?). The boys were ready. They hung a banner saying "No Tolerance for Intolerance" produced signs that mocked the ever present "God Hates Fags" with "God Hates dial-up", and when the clan came by the boys came out to dance -- as only frat boys can -- to gay themed songs blaring from the windows. Students in the area joined the festive atmosphere. A good time was had by all -- except for maybe the Phelps clan. Follow the link to a 2 minute video.
