"When you're inside my house(private sphere), I decide the rules. A funeral is like that."
Not really. A person can "decide the rules" in their own house because they own it and can have people leave whenever they like. But private property rights are not a carte blanche to invent laws. You cannot delcare it a law that there will be "No Holocaust denials in my house" and then sue someone for denying the Holocaust when over for dinner. All you can do is exclude them from your house and, if they refuse to leave, sue them for trespassing; you cannot sue them for violating your rule as to Holocaust denial. But in any case the attendants of funerals do not own the cemetery, and the street where the protest takes place is public space.
