Why do you allow the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas to protest at the funeral processions of killed servicemen?
Shouldn't everyone protest the Wesboro Baptist Church?
What kind of a religion would destroy the sacred funeral procession of servicemen that have fought and died for their country? This church is no better than the terrorists this country is at war with.

Thankfully a group of bikers (and ex-service men I think) took that job upon themselves and go to every funeral to keep Fred Phelps and his crazy followers from disrupting the grieving families anymore than they already have.

A funeral service should remain what it is: honoring the life of the person who passed away and bringing abour mourning for the families loss.
No church should interfere with the quiet funeral procession. They are using this as a tool for their agenda. That is wrong.
They should let the family mourn in silence. A church is supposed to be there for those that suffer loss not to interupt that.
They need to find another way to protest the war. A serviceman is not responsible for war or killing as they are commanded to do so by their government. They do what they are told or they go to jail, plain and simple.
Someone should talk to the Administrators of this church and tell them how you feel. Maybe they will be more compassionate next time.
Want to really turn heads, talk to ABC, CBS or NBC. If you have proof or photos that this actually happened they will expose this church to others and stop this hypocracy.
