Dearborn police defending the public against Bibles!

Nothing like being a touch excessive. Three guys standing around for three minutes handing out what amounts to tracts. Check out the number of Dearborn police officers that show up...



If you are keeping track at home, that is eight police officers who are not keeping an eye on the festival, they are arresting three guys for handing out the Gospel of John. I am sure in a festival in Metro Detroit there was nothing more urgent that required the attention of the police. I used to work about 5-10 minutes away from where this took place and I can assure you that there are more serious crimes taking place in Dearborn, Michigan that are more urgent that Christian missionaries evangelizing Muslims.

Welcome to our future. May God give us the courage to be bold when preaching the Gospel on the streets of America inevitably leads to arrest and persecution.

"This year, the city of Dearborn banned the distribution of Christian literature near the festival. Some accused the city of catering to its large Muslim population when the law was passed. On June 17, a three-judge panel from the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals granted an emergency motion on behalf of Pastor George Saieg, allowing him to distribute literature and talk about his faith to Muslims at the festival."

I don't see what gave grounds for arrest for "disorderly conduct". Maybe the police were prepped for the unconstitutional version and didn't get the memo on the motion.
