I would respect your right to knock their teeth loose. I would also respect their right to sue your pants off in relaliation. You could take solace in the fact that there's no legal means for an awardee to force the recovery of a civil judgment. So you wouldn't have to pay a cent, and there wouldn't be a damn thing they could do about it, other than ding your credit report for failure to pay.

Saint Peter was a Christian too. That didn't stop him from cutting off the ear of the High Priest's servant. ;)

It's disgusting. These people hide behind "freedom of speach". They are heartless morons, period.
I don't agree with homosexuality, but i would NEVER even THINK of doing something like that. I have friends that are gay, and they know what i believe about what they are doing. But it's no worse then any other type of sin. Like for example: "Judge not, lest ye be judged."
These hypocrites are in for a rude awakening.
If i was that man, i would get the names of any of those "protestors", and in the future, if any of their loved ones died, i would get a group to hold up nasty signs at the loved one's funeral. Then they would know how heartless their own actions were.
WSomeone needs to slap those idiots upside the head.

You either believe in the liberties granted to us by the First Amendment, or you don't. You don't get to cherrypick when the protections afforded by the First Amendment apply. If you want the muzzle the right of assholes to picket funerals, you have no ground on which to protest if someone else wants to muzzle your ability to express your own beliefs.

I would far rather put up with the ravings of a few ignorant pricks than risk having my own liberties infringed. And I wear the uniform of the United States armed forces. Some of my buddies have gone home in those same flag-draped coffins.
