Have a few pedophiles crash your young daughter's birthday party at the public park and see if you still feel this way.

How would that relate? If pedophiles were violent or implied they were going to rape and/or attack my daughter, that’s a completely different matter. You can’t legally walk around with signs that imply you are going to attack or harm someone (I think that is called assault).
assault: an act which creates fear of an imminent battery.
battery: an unlawful touching.
I’m not going to repeat the trash Fred Phelps uses during these protests, but I don’t believe it creates fear of an imminent battery (except maybe for Fred Phelps).
