Kudos to the people of Weston, Missouri, who took all the parking spots and filled the protest area that was designated for the Westboro Church. The hatemongers of Westboro came to protest the funeral of an American soldier who died in Afghanistan. Several hundred people of Weston left Phelps and his followers no place to protest, so they returned to their church in Kansas.

Sometimes the best defense to offensive First Amendment speech is more First Amendment speech, but of the respectful kind.
