SEAFORD -- Three blocks away from the church where Marine Cpl. Cory Palmer was eulogized Sunday, the atmosphere was charged with hurt and hate.

A crowd of about 1,000 -- mostly city residents -- shouted obscenities, honked horns and revved engines to protest about a dozen demonstrators in Gateway Park.

Tensions reached a peak about 2:55 p.m. when one man stormed through a barricade and attacked one of the demonstrators, punching him several times. Commotion followed, but no one was seriously injured.

5 Arrested In Attack On Anti-Gay Funeral Protesters (Fred Phelps)
SEAFORD, Del. -- Five people in Delaware face criminal charges after clashing with members of a Topeka, Kan., church protesting the funeral of a Marine killed in Iraq.

Police stood between the protesters and counter-demonstrators, some of whom tossed eggs, stones and water bottles at the picketers from Fred Phelps' Westboro Baptist Church. The church believes U.S. casualties in Iraq are God's retribution for America's support of homosexuality.

The church members were greeted by about 1,000 people Monday outside the funeral of Marine Cpl. Cory Palmer, who died earlier this month from injuries suffered in Iraq.

One of the five was charged with assault while the others were cited for criminal mischief and disorderly conduct.

1. If anyone can get the names of the arrested...

...then please PM me. I would like to send them a fruit basket and a little something for their trouble.

I'm thinking of calling the Seaford PD, but don't know whether they'd help me out.

Anyone here in the Nylon Capital of the World?
