Practice away. There is a problem when political speech is restricted based on its content.
EDIT: The Phelps also relied on a "freedom of religious expression" argument:
The church members testified they are following their religious beliefs by spreading the message that soldiers are dying because America is too tolerant of homosexuality.
“God promised dire outpourings of very painful wrath, and there’s nothing more painful than killing one of your children and that’s what’s going on in Iraq,” church founder Fred Phelps told msnbc.com in a 2006 interview. “That’s what we’re preaching and the forum of choice to deliver such a message, obviously, is the funeral of the kid that’s been blown to smithereens."
