And yes, I believe they have the right to their free speech and the right to protest but I also believe that not only are you free to do so, not only do you have the right to free speech but you have the right to deal with any consequences of what you say.

These folks had something to say, they said it and now they must deal with the social ramifications of it; In this case it is a law suit. They took something from the mourners that can't be given back - laying their son to rest is not something you can do more than once.
Can't disagree with anything you say Mike, but if they pulled that sort of crap at a funeral here in NC, I can virtually guarantee that the "family, military personel, et al" wouldn't have to do a thing. IMO, there would be plenty of "disinterested parties" at the funeral who would glady serve up the "consequences" before their BS even got started. You're absolutely correct that NOTHING can be done now to undo the pain they have inflicted upon the mourning families. You can't "unring a bell"...sometimes a bell should be "broken" before it can ring...
