Now they should sue to recover their court and attorney fees.

In what is being hailed as a victory for free speech, a judge in Philadelphia today dismissed all criminal charges against four Christians who were arrested for evangelizing at an outdoor homosexual event.

Judge Pamela Dembe of the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas dismissed the charges, saying that she found no basis whatsoever for any of them.

Thanks be to God. Now the next step is to make sure the DA that brought these charges loses his job.

Took the words out of my mouth, conservatives must become litigious and file suits at every turn. Fight fire with fire.

This is the best news of the day, now jailing the dements who filed charges should be in the near future (one can only wish).

...defendants stay at least 100 feet away from any homosexual gathering

I don't need a court order to keep me away!

"...a militant mob of homosexuals..."

Sounds like Howard Dean's family reunion.

This is outstanding. I wish I could say I'm not surprised, but after the first judge's reaction, I didn't know what to expect.

This is what I expected would happen. The system works.

"We are one of the very few countries that protects unpopular speech," Dembe said after viewing a videotape of the arrests.

Yes, the speech was so unpopular that our side lost all the gay "marriage" ballot measures last November, right? < /sarcasm>

Still, Judge Dembe's decision is right and we can be grateful for that.

I still want to know who the butt pirate Justice Dept attorneys were who were present that day and 'advised' the local DA on what charges to file
