GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (RNS) The anti-gay Westboro Baptist Church has announced plans to picket this week's funeral services for former first lady Betty Ford in California and Michigan.

The website of the Topeka, Kansas-based church said the fringe group will demonstrate at Ford's funerals because she divorced her first husband William Warren prior to marrying the late president Gerald R. Ford.

Anti-Defamation Legacy Law Advocates

Words are powerful, and leave their effects long after they have been uttered. It is reprehensible to continue to damage a person's REPUTATION by promoting rumor, innuendo, gossip and sensationalism as fact; after a person is deceased and can no longer speak or protect themselves.

We are the VOICES behind the AdLLaw Initiative (Cadeflaw).

We no longer passively accept the disrespectful and cruel assassination of those deceased. Freedom of speech is a right that we all enjoy, but with it comes responsibility and accountability. We each have a duty to be honest, fair and balanced in what we say or write and should be prepared to present proof or suffer the consequences.

"Protect and Preserve" the Legacy of the Deceased. Let's "Make That Change".

Sign the AdLLaw Petition. Send a letter to your two U.S. Senators and the President asking them to support the AdLLaw Initiative.

The Initiative’s goal is simple. It is meant to bring about legislation which will include the deceased among those who, when defamed, can have the same legal protection by giving their family a statute upon which to base a civil cause of action.

We see this law as any other; a possible deterrent for most and a tool for the more serious offenders.

Thank You.
