I have to begin this post with a firm announcement that I do not in any way condone the tastless group of rotten pig swill that conduct these protests. However, the facts seem to be left out in the discussion. The funeral in question was held just up the road from me. The protesters were placed 1000 feet from the entrance and the funeral procession used an alternate entrance into the cemetery. They never saw the protesters.
Thus the decision. There was no personal harm to anyone. If the police had allowed the procession to witness the protesters the decision woudl probably have been different as there may have been a good display of harm (hurtful words directed at an individual).
As a veteran I can live knowing that the very freedom my brothers in arms protected is safe...even as repulsive as the message is to me. The Westboro Church will get what is coming to them...Kharma is a b.....
The real problem I have is the countersuit that the church placed against Mr. Snyder. I lost track of it.
