Westboro Baptist has been very successfully dealt with the past year: wherever they show up, citizens now organize and line the streets preventing WB from getting anywhere near their targets, and physically obstructing them and their signs from the target (along funeral routes, for example). In other words, WB can't get close to the victim's families if the streets are already lined arm-to-arm and 3 deep with volunteer citizens.

It's worked in multiple cities, and WB has even gone home without demonstrating a few times, as their targets wouldn't even see them.
