Protesters Glitter-Bomb Santorum Rally

About twenty protesters glitter-bombed a Rick Santorum rally in South Carolina yesterday. Santorum was onstage with Family Research Council head Tony Perkins at the time.

The former Pennsylvania senator was making a clear appeal to conservative values voters, talking about "striking a blow for family and freedom" and upholding nuclear families as "the pillars of society." At an unseen cue, the protesters, who had stayed quiet until then, tossed glitter skyward and began shouting indiscernible slogans toward the podium. As police officers escorted them to a spot roughly 100 yards away, they took up a refrain of "Put the queers in the back!"

The below clip was made after the protest began. It's unclear if Santorum or Perkins were aware of their presence.
