I haven't participated (yet), but it's my understanding that they stand between the westboro protesters, backs turned, carrying US flags. They form a silent barrier that ignores the protesters and denies them what they crave most - attention.

From what I understand, it's quite effective.

This explains the law or should I say a one time law for a specific event. This was a total bipartisan legislation to prevent people getting up close to the funeral procession. They have to remain 300' away and they can say what they want but 300' away.
