Anti-Gay Group’s Free Speech Violated in Harrisburg

A federal judge has ruled that the constitutionally protected freedom of speech of the Worldwide Street Preachers' Fellowship were violated when the Harrisburg Police refused them access to the 2003 PrideFest celebration. (365gay)

The Fellowship attempted to enter an unused portion of Riverfront Park which was not roped off for the event.  They were prevented from doing so and sought relief in federal court. 

I agree with the court.  The Fellowship's rights to assemble and speak against homosexuality should be protected as long as they do so within the confines of the law.  Just like the rights of the Klan and Fred Phelps and other hate mongerers.
