RED HEN PROTEST: Opponents of the Red Hen owner's decision to ask Sarah Sanders to leave the restaurant over the weekend were outside today.

These signs say 'Homos are full of demons' and 'Unless they repent Let God Burn Them (LGBT) 2 Peter 2:6'

Protesters were also seen outside of the #RedHen in Lexington today holding @CoreyStewartVA signs and a @realDonaldTrump flag

More people have started showing up to the #RedHen and ABC reports a man was arrested for throwing "chicken s**t" at the restaurant

This is a look at what the man threw:

Even more crowds outside the #RedHen now with many carrying American flags -- and the man holding the signs shouting toward them

People outside the #RedHen are holding signs now that say 'Trump=Love', 'Trump is Love', and 'Red Hen needs to learn love and tolerance'

Here's a close up of the sign that reads 'Red Hen needs to learn love and tolerance'

The protesters have pretty much cleared out from the #RedHen -- it was also peaceful despite people yelling at each other

The fire department was tasked with cleaning the poop that a man threw at the #RedHen earlier. Police said he yelled "Make America Great Again" when he threw it.

This is 51-year-old Reginald Scott See, from Martinsburg, West Virginia, who is charged with littering and disorderly conduct after police said he threw feces at the #RedHen

TODAY: There are only a handful of people at the #RedHen today (Wednesday) -- one person is holding a sign that reads 'We Respect @PressSec Sanders #Trump2020' - photo by @NewsmanChris
