A man protesting against LGBT rights earlier this week at the University of Maine during the school’s Coming Out Week celebrations was met with a counter-protest: an a capella song.

The unidentified man, holding a sign printed with Bible verses about sexual immorality, had been standing in front of the Memorial Union on campus for some time on Monday.

A UMaine student posted several videos of other students engaging with the protester, including one of students singing an a capella, harmonized rendition of Elvis Presley’s “I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You.”

1. Two takeaways:

1) This is totally awesome
2) Even in Maine, you get these freaks protesting people being happy.

Best protests EVER!

They should give classes on effective protest.

Something is wrong with these people that are so concerned about what consenting adults are doing.
