Jury finds Christian missionaries not guilty of breaching peace at Dearborn Arab festival | MLive.com

What do you have to say about this? I say that if Arabs in Dearborn, Michigan can go around preaching about their disgusting, sexist, backwards cult religion, why can't Christians talk about their religion?

From what I saw, the Christians had some pretty good questions to ask Muslims and the Muslims got pretty upset.

So Arabs = Muslim? I could be wrong, but it appears as though some of the Christian missionaries are of Arab descent.

You are correct Sid2001 that not all cars are chevys, but Theliberalvoice was referring only to the intolerant Muslims who all happened to be Arabs.





Anyways, this is great news.

Thanks for staying on top of it Theliberalvoice.

Sorry I couldn't rep you again. I owe you one.



I wonder if the DPD will end the harassment now.

It doesn't really get into the legal specifics. Did the evangelists enter a blocked off area for which the Muslims obtained a a city permit for? Did they refuse to leave?

If so they likely did breach the peace and should have been convicted.

The thread was presented as Arabs versus Christians. Two of the Christians arrested are of Arab descent.

Check out this quote from Mayor O'Reilly,

"It's really about a hatred of Muslims," he said. "That is what the whole heart of this is. ... Their idea is that there is no place for Muslims in America. They fail to understand the Constitution."


Actually Mayor O'Reilly, there is no place in America for Muslims who think they can come here and ignore our Constitution and the rights of the individual because they clash with Islam.

I hope they get a huge award. No one should have to go through what they did because they exercised their First Amendment rights.

The fest was referred to as an Arab fest and not a Muslim fest, correct?
