    Default Synder family cause

    Having watched a BBC TV documentary on the protesting Phelps family and their viewpoint on the fallen I have sympathy for the Synder family, who clearly have decided to take action against the Phelps. I note the Synder family have a website and the facility to make donations for their cause: http://www.matthewsnyder.org/Links.html

    I've read the website briefly and found a linked Facebook explanation of the legal dispute:
    ..at Matt's funeral Westboro (Phelps) protested against Matt and harrassed Matt's family. Al, Matt's father, sued them and he won.Then, Westboro countersued and they overturned the case, citing freedom of speech Now the Supreme Court has decided to take the case.
