Just so I'm open about this, I think WBC should be able to protest anything their pointy little hearts desire, and I'd defend that right even as I detest their message.
In a vacuum (which I know doesn't exist), would you take away their right to protest funerals with god hates fags signs?
There are side effects outside a vacuum. If you can tell them they can't do it, then slippery slope and such. But with no threat of slippery slopes, do you still care about their 'right'?
If yes, why?
They can act like asses anywhere they like.
