Christian Preachers Brutally Beaten at Gay Pride Festival (Seattle)
Charisma News ^ | 6/30/15 | Todd Starnes

Two street preachers were brutally beaten—punched and kicked—by a crowd at a gay pride festival in Seattle and the entire melee was captured on video.

The preachers were holding signs reading "Repent or Else" and "Jesus Saves From Sin." The video shows a group of people initially screaming and threatening the men during Pridefest at the Seattle Space Needle.

Television station KOMO reported that some of the attackers belonged to a group called NOH8.

Wow, the comments at the video are HORRIFYING!

When did we become a fascist police state? The street preachers were holding signs. They weren't "hurting" anyone.

Yet in the comments all you read is how they "deserved" to be beaten/put in the hospital, etc.

One fascist brags about how they have laws against "hate speech" in Canada and how awesome it is.

Homosexuals are going to kill Christians before this is over, and there WILL be support for it.

I am stunned that my fellow countrymen are willing to defend this.

I have the same feeling. This land reeks of impending oppression and violence.

It’s one of the reasons why the 2016 candidate is so important.

This has got to be rolled back.

We need a guy with a firm grasp and the energy to do what he needs to.

Yes, it really does.

We can’t have the Rubio Jeb types this time.

Some are saying that his star is shining in the West right now. Also the 4th blood moon is coming soon.

Those preachers were lucky they didn’t get raped.

When I was a youth, seemingly surrounded by gay guys, my girlfriends and I witnessing yet another meltdown by an hysterical queen would just shrug and say: he’s having his period. This is just another collective PMS by the gay community. Get used to it.

They are no different than any other militant gang and should be treated as such. Get around a bunch of them such as this and you better have some friends.

Genesis 19:5. Bring out the men in your house so that we may know them.

You're right. Our fellow Americans will cheer as those "ignorant, bigoted, homophobic Bible-thumpers get what's coming to them." Jesus warned us this would happen. We've been lucky in the US. We were a majority Christian country and free to practice our religion. That is now changing, and it's going to be ugly. I sure hope the pre-tribulation rapture people are right. If not, I pray that I will be brave enough to stand up to the persecution to come, and be strong.

“Two street preachers were brutally beaten—punched and kicked—by a crowd at a gay pride festival”

NBC has been showing the story of the disciples after Jesus ascended. They showed a scene in which Simon Peter and John were in prison, recovering from being beaten. They laughed joyously because they were persecuted for standing up for Jesus.

Despite their bruises, perhaps these preachers are experiencing the same joy.

H/T to our FRiend Libloather for the post.

Are we going to have to monitor the sodomite sashays for violence now?

Because if this is a harbinger of things to come, we may have to...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”

Not at all. The poor dears are under a threat of death from the islumist extremists, and are so afraid of them, that they've come to despise other less-dangerous religions whose adherents aren't as inclined to kill or mutilate them. Clearly, that sort of fear has caused many, perhaps even most of them to become unhinged.

So it's our duty to those confused and threatened fellow Americans to help them out: Use them as bait, and nail the islumists who threaten or attack them.
