Greybeard Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 We cant have it both ways. If he was arrested for preaching his filth then its obviously offensive and therefore has NO place in modern society. This PCSO has struck the first blow for common sense. But what about these homophobic books, - do you think they should be banned ? And if common sense should prevail I'm betting the charges will be dropped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Another jumped up PCSO with a poor understanding of good policing: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/religion/7668448/Christian-preacher-arrested-for-saying-homosexuality-is-a-sin.html Don't you think anyone making a judgement based solely on the preachers side of the story, is jumping to conclusions a little? Why trust the preacher to be describing events accurately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindrift Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 The once great, independent British police force that was the envy of the world, are now politically correct New Labour stormtroopers. So, you would defend a muslim preacher who said Christians were an "abomination" and "sinful"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The preacher was committing a crime, was warned about it by the copper, and carried on! He had a chance, he ignored it. If a copper tells you to stop doing something and you ignore him you will get nicked. Simples! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why trust the preacher to be describing events accurately? They probably would be. and Why, indeed!. .. but, then ... Why make assumptions as to what people are basing their judgements on?
