Last week at the August 5 funeral of Army Specialist Adam Harding in the Chicago suburb of Portage, Indiana, the Westboro church sent 10 protestors . Harding died in Iraq July 25 when the convoy he was in hit a roadside bomb. In Ohio, many of the funeral attendees cursed the protestors , according to a report in the Los Angeles Times. But Chicago-area veterans associations held a press conference Monday denouncing the funeral protestors . "Those who are protecting our nation provide the fundamental right of the First Amendment. But to protest at funerals is wrong," Chicago Alderman James Balcer, a veteran of the Vietnam War, reportedly said.
