[Vision2020] House bill 1168

[Sunil Ramalingam]

The protesters are either Fred Phelps and his family or people from his 
church.  He's gone from protesting at the funerals of gays to protesting at 
troops' funerals.  The Hells Angels have shown up at some funerals to 
counter his group.

I'm sure this bill will end up in court with Phelps arguing the First 
Amendment protects his right to protest at funerals.
