Snyder vs Phelp

Tomorrow the Supreme Court hears oral arguments regarding the protests of Military Funerals by the Westboro Baptist Church members. That church seeks nothing but publicity be it at a funeral of a Serviceman or Woman, a Catholic School, etc. Now some may say it is freedom of speech but I do not agree. These Servicemen and Women fought for our freedoms. Without those sacrifices, this church would not have the freedoms they so abuse. No private citizen should have to face the harassment, anger, lies, humiliation, etc. that this so-called church spews out at the funerals. Don't we deserve the freedom to say goodbye and bury out dead? I pray the Supreme Court agrees and rules in favor of Mr. Snyder.
