-As a counterprotest during Henderson's trial, a friend of Shepard's created "Angels of Peace", wherein individuals assembled in a circle around the Phelps group wearing white robes and gigantic wings that literally blocked the protesters (who were confined to a small protest square by police) from the view of passers-by. A similar angel tactic has been reused a number of times at other protests by Phelps, but less effectively as the "Angels" are now required to stay in their own separate protest square.

    Here's some more information on the Angel's thing. Apparently this girl went on to create an entire foundation.
