Westboro Baptist Church at it again

[ShomeGhuye]

Honestly, I wanna call this group funny for making the accusation against this guy, but given their history of being douche bags, I wouldn't seem appropriate. Thinking this may be them trying to get some more media coverage.

A public memorial service for heavy metal rocker Ronnie James Dio is planned for Sunday, with members of the Westboro Baptist Church saying they will picket the ceremony.

The church in Topeka, Kansas, is known for its intolerance of gays and its picketing of soldiers' funerals.

A picketing schedule on the church's website said protesters will be at the Dio memorial at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles, accusing the 67-year-old rocker of worshipping Satan.

Isn't there an anti-harrasment law in place that can be use to keep them away or something?

I'm sure they keep a certain distance away to keep that from being applicable. I recall in the last thread about this group, freedom of speech was brought up as well. I guess they just like to walk the line between the two.
