I just can't apply the "sticks and stones" defense to their behavior. They defamed this soldier publicly, in front of his family and loved ones. That crossed the line and they should have to pay for that. The fact that they defamed other soldiers is not a defense of their behavior, it simply begs the question why this wasn't a class-action suit against WBC.

rb- An interesting point regarding free speech zones. I suppose we should start holding protests inside the Supreme Court during session and dare them to dictate when and where we protest.
