1st Amendment Is Dead
City corrals Christians at weekend Arab fest
Judge won’t let ministry deliver tracts on sidewalksA federal judge has upheld a decision by festival organizers in Dearborn, Mich., which is about 30 percent Muslim, to ban a Christian ministry from handing out religious information on public sidewalks.
The ruling came from U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmonds and affects this weekend’s celebration but will not affect the free speech lawsuit over the event, filed by the Thomas More Law Center and the Becker Law Firm.
The case is being brought on behalf of the Arabic Christian Perspective, a Christian group that ministers to Muslims. According to the Thomas More Law Center, Pastor George Saieg and scores of his volunteers have visited Dearborn for the city’s Arab International Festival to hand out religious information several times.
Let’s face it, what we are talking about here is the end of freedom of speech in the public square in America for CHRISTIANS, which also means and end to Freedom of Religion in America, for CHRISTIANS.
If peaceful political or religious speech on a public sidewalk by a few people can be denied to Christians for fear of offending anyone, in this case Muslims, then free, peaceful political speech on a public sidewalk can be denied to anyone for any cause.
This means any local community and state may abrogate any part of the Bill of Rights for any cause, which is what Sotomayor suggest is the case for the 2nd Amendment. If even the anti-religious do not oppose this attack on the Bill of Rights, then they will have no moral grounds upon which to fight against any of our rights being taken away.
