KY House bill concerning protests at funerals

Veterans, Kentuckians, Decent People:

After contacting my KY Representative in the KY State Legislature, Bob Damron, to get something done about this ridiculous situation whereby our military heroes' funerals are being protested, my suggestions were taken my Mike Weaver who sits on the Military Affairs Committee. I don't who takes the glory, we just need to get this done. It has been introduced in the KY House as HB333.

This is good enough for now. This will stop the issuance of any permits for protests during funerals or memorial services or anywhere along their routes. Please contact your representatives and have them support this. This is a non-partisan common sense issue relating to simple human decency. Let them rest in peace and leave the families who have sacrificed so much alone.

You can also call 1-800-372-7181 and ask to leave a message for your legislator. This is a House bill so you would ask for your Representative. They can tell you who your Representative is if you do not know and will leave a message for you stating that you want them to support this bill HB333.

God bless our troops and their families.
