Anti-racist demonstrators overwhelmed a half-dozen activists who had gathered at the White House Saturday in support of a ban on Muslim immigration to the U.S.

The counterprotesters, who outnumbered the anti-Muslim gathering by at least 3 to 1, chanted slogans against bigotry and waved placards expressing solidarity with Muslims.

Two people even held up a sheet in front of the small ring of anti-Muslim demonstrators, hiding the gathering from passersby.

Several Secret Service officers surrounded the anti-Muslim activists, separating them from the much larger crowd of counter-demonstrators.
