Protestors involved with the Occupy Springfield movement in Massachusetts marched on Friday to a coffeehouse owned by Scott Lively, an antigay preacher who stirred homophobia in Uganda and possibly helped initiate the "Kill Gays" bill there.

With a banner that read "Occupy Hate," the activists called out Lively's homophobia and asked for an apology; counter-protestors tried to scream over the gay rights supporters. Lively also came outside, but didn't address the crowd; he appeared to read Bible passages. Watch the video below and read more here.
