the actions of protesting and shouting hate messages at a funeral while not physically harming anyone, do induce more mental pain and stress to the grieving family . the members of the WBC in all seriousness should and deserve to be taking into the community and stoned to death and televised.
this also applies to anyone convicted of hate crimes, neo nazis, kkk members, and so forth.
doing so would make would people think twice about trying to intimidate others.
