The protests by Fred Phelps were done on public property near the cemeteries where soldiers are buried. Although terrible, they aren't breaking any laws.

The Boy Scouts of America are a religious based organization, but the ACLU attacked their choice to keep gays out of their group, their freedom to associate.
