Free speech violation or 'About time'?

Some States already have these type of laws.

Wisconsin

North Carolina General Statutes:
14-288.4. Disorderly conduct.
(a) Disorderly conduct is a public disturbance
intentionally caused by any person who:
...
(7) Disrupts, disturbs, or interferes with a religious
service or assembly or engages in conduct which
disturbs the peace or order at any religious
service or assembly.
...
(b) Any person who willfully engages in disorderly conduct is
guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor. (1969, c. 869, s. 1; 1971, c.
668, s. 1; 1973, c. 1347; 1975, c. 19, s. 4; 1983, c. 39, s. 5;
1987, c. 671, s. 1; 1993, c. 539, s. 189; 1994, Ex. Sess., c.
24, s. 14(c); 2001-26, s. 2.)

And from a rough look at google quite a few others already have them too.

Hmmm...

The Places in question ARE public... but are the services they are disrupting? I mean, are they Banned from being in those places, or only when it is disruptive to the private services taking place there?

It would appear that they are banned from the location for one hour preceeding through one hour after the completion of a service. Whether the protestors are disruptive, or not (silent vigil?) does not seem to bear upon the rule as I understand it.
