Albert Snyder is in a legal battle against the Westboro Baptist Church, who picketed the funeral of his son, Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder.
He is taking the Church to the Supreme Court. They have been upsetting hundreds of Fallen Hero's funerals. They hit the grieving families at their most vulnerable.
Mr. Snyder was ordered to pay a $16,500 judgment that the congregation plans to use for more protests at funerals of Fallen Veteran Heros.
The info above is mostly quoted from MSNBC news article that can be seen in full here:
I think that helping Albert Snyder in his fight for justice would allow the Tea Party to stand up for fellow Americans and their families that have paid the highest price for the freedom that we enjoy.
The publicity would also help spread the word about the Tea Party and help us gain the support of many more good Americans. Supporting this family is an opportunity to show what the Tea Party is about.
I don't know Mr. Snyder but I pray for he and his son and that he will get the help he needs.
After reading this story as found on the link above I felt sick to my stomach. I am not sure how to best help this family hence my post here. Hopefully people can come together to help this family.
