Does the First Amendment protect Christians who bring their message to Muslims at public events or in front of mosques? This is a good question, given the trend of missionaries being placed under arrest while proselytizing to followers of Islam — right here in the United States:
On June 18, four Christians were arrested for breach of peace at the Arab International Festival in Dearborn, Michigan. The group's videos show them engaging in reasoned debate with Muslims or merely roaming around, but one festival volunteer accused them of harassment, making him feel "nervous." According to the Detroit Free Press, "Police said the missionaries were arrested because they failed to obey police commands. Officers maintain the group's actions were a public safety issue because they caused a large number of people to gather in a small place." The trial is now in progress.

We need a national enema to get rid of the slaves and proselytes of the pedophile pirate.
“All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others...”
All laws are selectively enforced by liberals to show favor to their pet groups.
Christians have never been a pet group of the progressive movement.
We now have judges and elected officials who are willing to publicly declare that the First Amendment protects Muslims, but not Christians. The pretense is over.
We are losing this Republic to the Politically Correct effete from HAAAAAAvard and YAAAAAle.(And Moscow, Havana, etc.)
At this moment,
the Founding Fathers are spinning like lathes.
It was not about “failure to obey police commands.” It was about being Christian and “disturbing” the fanatical jihadis who want to overrun this country.
Just sad
Listen raghead, your very presence here offends me and makes me nervous.
The police chief is a Muslim. Just enforcing Sharia law, that’s all.
Here in Colorado we call it a "party".
WE make THEM feel nervous? How many muslims have the christians beheaded so far?
I’m about to post this - share it with EVERYONE...
