Arrested for Quoting Bible Verses in Public

[AverageJoe]

No offense, Joe, but this is your modus operandi whenever someone stands up to you. I’ve seen the pattern repeated with others. I’m not being snarky, I’m just tired of you tossing “your generation” comments out. You come across like the angry old man on the porch shaking his cane in the air yelling at kids to get off his lawn. And you have a good day as well.

You're so full of meadow muffins your eyes are changing colors. I don't get angry. It takes more than someone with a keyboard and monitor to make me angry. I just state the truth of the matter. If someone doesn't like it, they can always block me or skip the posts. Doesn't matter to me.

The prosecutor threw out all the charges after viewing a social media posted video.

Fighting about the what if's accomplishes nothing. Just the facts matter here.

I hold no ill will against anyone, so I wouldn’t block you or anyone else on this forum, but like you, I’m going to speak my version of the truth as well. If speaking that truth makes me “disrespectful” or “snarky” or “off my meds” or “too young to understand,” then so be it. Respect is earned, not just freely given.

All that being said, sincerely hope you are doing well with your recent health challenges.

Respectfully, I must disagree with you to a degree. There’s something called “setting a precedent,” and arresting Christians while peacefully and lawfully speaking the truth and quoting Scripture in a public space sets a precedent whereby it will intimidate others to stay home and keep their mouths shut.

When you say things like "you're so full of meadow muffins" it sounds angry, and "I find this alot of this in your generation," it appears very condescending. I take you with a grain of salt when you say stuff like that. I'm just a year or two younger than you, so I don't get those comments.

Appreciate you speaking up, Bob. I’m not perfect by any means, and there’s been a time or two I’ve been a little out of line. It happens. I guess the noticeable difference was when I’ve been out of line, there’s an almost immediate cadre of folks on here who quickly let me know about it, but others seem to say what they want with silence and impunity.

Anyway…I think we can all learn from one another regardless of age. I might be 15 or 20 years younger than some on here, but I might also have some life experiences that others don’t possess (maybe via education, job, parenthood, etc.) Regardless, I’m old enough to know that maturity doesn’t always come with age. Sadly, I’ve met some 20-year-olds with more respect and decency than some 60-year-olds possess.

Its one thing to be protected for your "Free Speech" with the first amendment of the constitution. The Constitution allows you to be as surly and antagonistic as you want to be but does such bring honor and glory to the Lord Jesus Christ?

Our citizenship is in heaven and our conversation needs to reflect this! I watched the video clip and see nothing this street preacher did that was wrong aside from possibly poor judgment in being down there in the first place. That Police Sergeant was way out of line and has opened himself and his department up to legal action!

This doesn't annul the commandments to pursue justice.

bwahahahahahahah! No. You're a brute. You just never met someone willing to roll in the mud with you till you met me. I'll go as low as you want.

I'm your huckleberry.

Thank you. I'm still going through testing...one artery is 40-50% blocked, but, no surgery is needed at present. I am going to be assessed on Monday the 19th for pulmonary rehab and have an echocardiogram scheduled as well. Oxygen therapy hasn't been ruled out yet.
Indeed, respect is earned and not freely given.
Peace to you.
