1st Amendment protects military funeral protesters

[jdgregory84]

Watching a news report on this right now. This is the father of a soldier who recently died and had protestors show up at his funeral. Last name Snyder, can't remember the first name. "The government will send my son to war, and send him back in a bodybag, but they won't give him the respect of a peaceful burial."

EDIT: This is in reference to the same lawsuit the OP had posted.

This ruling just makes it clear that if verbal assaults are allowed, then physical assaults against their verbal assaults should also be completely legal. Time to go kick some ass.

This.

No it won't, it'll just make things worse, and cause an even bigger up roar.

You're right, it's going to take more than one bullet.

It's just fucked up that the soldier's funerals they are protesting, died for their right to be pieces of human trash. Totally understand the father's outlook, but this is a slippery slope. Thankful for groups that protest the WBC protest.

I don't know how some fathers/mothers, families have no lost it yet.

When I was a kid I had freedom of speech. However, my parents slapped/backhanded me when I was an idiot. Same should hold true for these people, but that's not how the world works.
