Attorney General Greg Stumbo today advised law enforcement officials that funeral protestors are subject to arrest if they interfere with the funeral of ten family members who perished in a house fire in Bardstown on Tuesday.

The group from the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas has protested at military funerals across the country and is expected to demonstrate in Bardstown on the day of the funeral.

"We are united in grieving for this family and community," said Attorney General Stumbo. "The law provides protections against disorderly conduct and forbids interference with funerals."

The Attorney General’s advisory was sent to Ponto, the Bardstown Police Department, the Nelson County Sheriff’s Department and the Commissioner of the Kentucky State Police and others.

Whoo hooo!!! Get 'em. I am all for having the right to protest, but seriously, who is listening while a funeral is going on? I am in no mood to hear your stance on anything while mourning a loved one.

These people are supposed to be from a church. In my opinion if you are saying you represent your church, God etc... then protesting at a funeral is against what I feel God is all about. Church group protesting at a funeral, OXYMORAN.

If you visit their web page, you'll learn all you need to know about this family/church. I actually attended an event at which they protested once. They are unloving, cruel people, IMO.
