A gay couple in Chester has become a viral hit and have received tons of support after they shared a kiss in front of anti-LGBT protestors. The couple of Joe Fergus and Robert Brookes, had just been to see a production of the Rocky Horror Picture Show at the city’s Storyhouse Theatre. However, when they emerged a small group of churchgoers has assembled opposite the theatre brandishing placards with bible quotes and verses. Rather than ignoring the protestors, Fergus and Brookes took a stand and kissed directly opposite them and reportedly earned a round of applause from onlookers. The image was then shared on Facebook, where he was eventually reposted by the Chester Pride page, where it has now be shared more than 300 times.
