(CNN) -- A motorist fired pepper spray Saturday at a group of demonstrators and counter-protesters outside a funeral for a U.S. Marine in Omaha, Nebraska, police said.

The incident occurred shortly before 10 a.m. (11 a.m. ET) as members of a small Kansas church that protests at military funerals and counter-protesters stood nearly a block away from First United Methodist Church during services for Staff Sgt. Michael Bock, 26, who died August 13 in Afghanistan's Helmand province.

A man in a Ford-150 pickup truck drove by, extended his arm and sprayed with a large can, police said. His vehicle was stopped a few minutes later.

Good. Fred Phelps/WBC are bunch of psychopaths. Fred Phelps and Jeremiah Wright deserve each other.

It was only a matter of time before something like this happened.

It was ONLY pepper spray.  Rinse your eyes out with water.  You will be fine.

The protestors that due that should be shot with something stronger than pepper spray if you ask me. How dare they act like that at a service members funeral.

If I had my way they would have gotten a mimiguns worth or paintballs loaded with pepper spray.

What is wrong with people?  Really?  How could anyone possibly justify this behavior?

 My choice of protest against That Phelps fellow and family would be one of those super soaker water guns filled with Fox Scent.  Anyone that hunts fox can buy this stuff at any sporting store around the country.

Good grief this is one heck of a smell, 10 times worse then skunk spray, and once they get into their cars that smell goes into the seats and carpeting, almost impossible to remove.   They will have to throw away all clothing and spend 12 hours in a hot soapy shower to get the smell off their body's and hair.

Yeah I know, this old lady is one mean bitch and getting meaner.

Fred Phelps and Westboro Baptist Church has to be most hated on Earth along side with Osama bin Laden, Joran van der Sloot, and South Hadley 6. Rotten scumbags that they are of the lowest denominator.
