The decision upheld an appeals court ruling that threw out a $5 million judgment to the father of a dead Marine who sued church members after they picketed his son's funeral.

The father will now be liable for the "legal costs" incurred by the WBC in these court actions.

......sad day.

The father will now be liable for the "legal costs" incurred by the WBC in these court actions.

In the American system of jurisprudence, "legal costs" are generally nominal -- a couple hundred dollars to a couple thousand dollars depending upon the court system.

I think that's the point. I've read elsewhere that this "church" is really a gigantic scam. They deliberately do the most outrageous thing possible to provoke people into attacking them and then they sue. Or they provoke municipalities into denying them rights and then sue them. I've heard they've made a tidy sum through out of court settlements. This is all about money, not some twisted principle.
