(Concord, USA) - Protests by an anti-gay group near the funeral of Army Capt. Jonathan Grassbaugh in Hampstead last month have inspired a last-minute effort to ban demonstrations near funerals.

It’s similar to a [US]-national law passed last year that requires demonstrators to remain at least 500 feet away from mourners in national cemeteries.
