These are some sick people.
I don't see these assholes getting within a couple of miles of any of the funerals.

They get within a couple miles of the funerals of our troops.....
Maybe this time, someone will stop them.

I'm sure the vets on the motorcycles will be there in force to keep them at bay.
What I'm really curious about is who funds these people?
They travel around the country incurring expenses like vehicles gas food lodging. This doesn't come cheap. So who picks up the bill for their nonsense?

They are attorneys, a whole family of them.

They are attorneys, a whole family of them. When does the disbarment of the aforementioned vermin begin? What does it say about the clients of these cruds? if they know about this too? :peacesign:

Was reading that a different group of local folks on motorcycles will be attending. They mentioned that they are hoping that the Hells Angels will also arrive to help form a buffer for the families. They should be able to impress upon those that wish to disrupt the funerals the error of their way's.

I just heard that AZ is going to ban them from attending any funerals. I'm sure some ACLU lawyer will be on this...and technically....they are entitled to freedom of speech...but I'm glad AZ is taking that stance. Legally, I don't know why the picketing can't fall under harrassment anyway.

Who are you referring to? The ACLU? I don't think the ACLU is a bad thing....

They have the right to protest according to the Supreme Court. However State and local authorities have the right to create laws that limit when and where they do. That is in the brief the court put out. They have come to the Chicago area several times. The Patriot Guard and Angle Wings took care of them. Between the two no one even knew they were there. Angel Wings are people who wear these huge wings that when turned a certain way make a huge screen that can move. Some of those wings weigh 20 to 25lbs. States have to make those laws and few have. The man who started Westboro was a civil rights lawyer. Not sure what happened to him to make him grown into this horrible person. He was and is a damn good lawyer and he will and does challenge any law that restricts him. So states can not just make something up and toss it out. They need to think and be smart about how they do it.

I know that. And I'm glad they go and protect them.
However, if I am attending a funeral and I see a bunch of angel wings...I know that right behind them is that beyond horrible group of people.
Don't get me wrong. I love that the patriot guard and the Angel Wings do this, but it doesn't take the deed away from the Westboro Baptist bastards.
And I support and defendom freedom of speech, right to assemble, protest...yadda, yadda, yadda...
But these people are invading private funerals. I don't care if they are 100 feet away or 1000 feet away. Why can this not legally be declared harrassment?
Otherwise, just shoot em
