I'm not familiar with the case, so I don't know what the basis for the decision actually was (I'm skeptical about brief press accounts getting anything important right) but if there are folks cheering because the despicable Phelpses were punished by a court for speech because it offended folks and hurt their feelings, it's worth considering that others may issue speech that offends folks and hurts their feelings, and that it may not always be the correct ox being gored.
