I see this as a win for the First Amendment.
To be clear - I loathe everything Phelps and his inbred "church" stand for. I've spent many hours standing the flagline with the Patriot Guard to make sure when these turds show up to protest a funeral, the family is shielded from their vile messages.
However, it's easy to protect popular speech. But upholding the right to free speech even when that speech is repulsive is the true test. Rationally, I believe the Court ruled properly on this issue. Emotionally, I'd have loved to see Phelps and his inbred little family business lose everything they have paying the judgment Mr. Snyder won in the lower court.
In the end, the WBC will keep doing what they do - and the PGR will keep doing what we do. And we're
way
more successful at what we do.....
