PHOTOS: Hyattsville Residents Make Signs For Westboro Baptist Protest

Many signs show support of the students at Northwestern High School.

Hyattsville residents gathered to make signs to be used in on the morning of March 1.

The Westboro Baptist Church, known for its anti-homosexual stance and for picketing at the funerals of soldiers, has said that it will send a group of people to protest outside of the school from 9 to 9:30 a.m.

A group from Hyattsville is scheduled to gather at the University Hills Duck Pond about 7:30 a.m. before organizing and then walking down Adelphi Road to the school.
