Couple of questions about this:
1) Aren't most cemetaries privately owned? That is, it's private property so free speech doesn't apply?
2) Couldn't they arrest the protestors for harassment?

Well, the law only applies to federal cemetaries.

Personally, I don't find it infringing on constitutional rights though. You know, the whole time, place, and manner thing.
