There's a case that the Supreme court has before it (Snyder v Phelps). Check out the link below. I guess the ruling wont be done until spring 2011. Lets hope they get it right this time, unlike the campaign finance ruling they made last January. See here

If you don't know about this you can read about it here.
You know what's sad is that Phelps will very likely win that case. His freedom of expression is very firmly indoctrinated in the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights. Although it's highly offensive and divisive to the wellbeing of America, his right to be that big of a cunt is inarguably protected.

Honestly it may have no reached the court via appeals. My guess would be the Court requested the case via writs of certiorari specifically because they feels there's a precedent that needs to be set here. I feel like nowadays this is a pretty common issue and they may have accepted this as a landmark case specifically to help quell the onslaught of lawsuits

they protested in my town, but they were surrounded by a wall of cops so thick you'd be crazy to attempt anything violent.
Which is really too bad, we need someone to wave hello to them with a couple Molotov's and a minigun

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but didn't my post specifically say that their rights were intrinsically protected by numerous governmental doctrines?

My bad, what I was trying to say was merely that their choice of actions is really saddening and detrimental to the overall wellbeing of the country. In no way did I mean to imply that they should lose their right to free speech or anything, just that sometimes that right can be as harmful as anything

You know, the only way to beat a troll is to ignore it. Or engage in troll cannibalism and troll him back.
Makes me wonder what the reaction would be if the funeral attendees just carried on with their service without paying any attention to the crazy Westboro cockbites. 
I'd just murder fred phelps and his family in the night a year later.
Everyone knows you can only kill a troll with fire, otherwise they regenerate.
Yup, straight up. If my son died and someone was there protesting his funeral I'd straight up open fire on them. Wouldn't even hesitate. Well, maybe I'd hesitate just long enough to wonder if I should do with with my bare hands instead for satisfaction sake, but that's about it.
