A visit from Adam Lambert:

The "God hates fags" crowd from Westboro Baptist Church was scheduled to protest the Adam Lambert concert in Springfield, Missouri on Saturday night.

Fans were ready. Two hundred counter-protesters showed up. However, the Fred Phelps clan didn't, Daily Kos reports:

"Still, the openly gay singer (a frequent target of WBC ire) came out to greet his supporters and autograph their protest signs; tweeted his outrage at the 'Westboro Bastard Church of Ignorance'; and kissed a male bandmate during his show, adding: 'Suck on this, Westboro.'"

Watch video of the kiss, and of Lambert's visit to the counterprotesters, AFTER THE JUMP…
