Route redirect with message variable

I need some help with Laravel. What I want to do is create a route filter that will redirect a user with a specified message passed from a variable. The code I currently have semi-works, the only that that I don't like though, is that the message gets converted to lowercase characters when displayed on the view.

Route::get('event/signup', array('before' => 'auth_message:You must be logged into your account to signup for the event.', 'uses' => 'event@signup'));

Route::filter('auth_message', function($message)
{
    if (!Auth::user())
    {
        return Redirect::to('/')->with('errorAlert', $message);
    }
});

So for example, this message "You must be logged into your account to signup for the event." is displayed as this on the view after the user is redirected: "you must be logged into your account to signup for the event." Is it possible to retain the character case?

You are getting the wrong parameter from the filter. The following works like you would expect: 

Route::filter('auth_message', function($route, $request, $value)
{
    if (!Auth::user())
    {
        return Redirect::to('/')->with('errorAlert', $value);
    }
});

Route::get('/', function(){
    exit(Session::get('errorAlert')); // Returns "You must be logged into your account to signup for the event."
});
