I think that would only be the difference between probation and jail time.

For the cultists yelling "fire" in a crowded movie theater? Er.. "fa**ot" and "war criminal" at the funeral of a stateside murdered marine?

You cannot slander the dead but there is still provocation by levying false charges against the dead. It is an outrageous act.

Abortion foes cannot stand outside an abortuary and protest. It interrupts the business of abortion. This funeral protest is likewise bad for the funeral business.

As disgusting and offensive as the Phelps crowd is, I am not all that sure that their should be a prohibition of their protesting funerals of gays or fallen solders and there also should me no prohibition against protesting at an abortion clinic.
