No, it is not selective enforcement. The police were doing their jobs, because the store owners complained about the street-preaching. Usually, there is a lot of hate involved, such as “Believe or Die” and “Sinners Only Have Hell” and other things like that.
It was a private property open to the public. If they felt that you were in any way offending, then they can restrict you from it. And when you bring up unbelievers go to hell, people will get offended. I would.
I can understand them not wanting you there, I dont want you there. why dont you had out pamplents instead of yelling your belivies. most people dont agree with you and you seem just bitter and trying to get a rise out of people so u can post it here. yes people sin but dosnt god forgive sinners all you do is tell them thier going to go to hell. your religon is based on lies bleiving the bible is ignorant
plus i dought you were just hanging out in ybor
Hey Dummy,
The cop even said it was selective enforcement!
Hey Christfag,
He was doing as he was instructed. I would throw you off too.
ditto
The police are only enforcing the rights of a property owner to remove whomever he wants from his property. If he doesn’t like white Christians, that’s the property-owners own business. The police have nothing to do with who gets removed, it is simply their job to remove whomever the property-owner wishes. You don’t have a right to stand wherever you want. Maybe the dude just didn’t want you sitting on his wall.
wow dude the owner didnt want u on the property it that simple. is it cuz ur cristion maybe i not going to lie ther is rasscim and stareo types out there he probily sead u were being a mennis and the cops removed u. but if u were preaching than yah i think u deserved to be removed i hate when ppl yell at me cuz i dont think jesus is god.
im going to go in that guys house with a sign saying “GOD WANTS YOUR MOM TO GO TO HELL!” and not leave, and when the cops come, im going to say “how come im not allowed on the property? how come im not allowed on the property? so christians are not allowed on the property? how come im not allowed on the property?”
The difference is I do not allow the general public to enter my property 24 hours a day 7 days a week like Ybor Centro.
I believe it has a public easement and gets local tax breaks because of it.
They trespassed me because I am a Christian, I was doing nothing but talking to a man who approached me.
What would you think if they did that to me because I was black or jewish or a filthy sodomite?
You would probably be enraged. Jusdt like all the other hypocrites.
Trespass: To commit an unlawful injury to the person, property, or rights of another, with actual or implied force or violence, especially to enter onto another’s land wrongfully.
You were not trespassed but you were the trespasser! They removed you but did not trespass you. Just a small lesson on the English language.
I just read this comment and no where does this person say they are not a Christian. This is your issue you are completely judgmental and undeniably disrespectful. You demand respect but refuse to give it to others, therefore what goes around comes around. If you were a moderately decent person you would have a handle on at least that. Until you learn what is sociably acceptable you will continually be “trespassed” or removed.
I’ll tell you why.Because you are causing a disturbance.The property owner has the right to have you removed from their property.period.
Maybe if you obeyed Jesus you would not have this problem. Matt 6:5-8
You were chasing off people for their business, by preaching things the public did not want to hear.
They don’t answer him becuase he’s asking stupid questions. Property can be private with public access, but the owners of the property have the right to say who can and can not be on the property.
ok Preacher717
they did not charge you with trespassing because you are a christian like you kept telling them… you were causing a disturbance and if you are preaching something that businesses do not agree with or want to be associated with they have the right to decide if they want you there or not
I’ll admit that I am a christian but i disagree with that street peaching stuff
If you have to ask why, then your really dumb.
Ok you need an answer, your a disturbance, just like a tramp or a bum.
Jesus would be ashamed of your methods, go and read your bible again.
Hey can you do me a favor and slit your wrists
look budy if they dont want you on the property,thats there right…so get off!!
Wow never seen this before! That was against the law what they did!You have freedon of access!
Have you heared of freedom of speech!
The owners of the property used selective informant, not the cop. The cop was just doing his job by removing you from private property, that the owners didn’t want you on.
Once again you were running off business, and you being a white Christian probably had nothing to do with it. And if it did, they still had the right to have you removed for their property.
wow stop being stupid and just leave. they asked you to leave why cant you?
You have a right to free speech, but the property owner has the right to restrict access to whoever he chooses. Consider the possibility that the owner did not wish to be associated with street preachers, of any denomination. This “selectively enforced trespassing” is perfectly legal. If you owned a plot of commonly accessed land, and a member of a different religion began preaching his message, would you want the right to remove him from your property? The Constitution protects all.
He was on public property they can’t legally make him leave unless he is disturbing the peace. Also the cop telling him that he would talk to him unless he stopped recording was against the law. He can ask him to stop recording but he doesn’t have to. The only law breakers here are the cops.
since when does a Christian call someone “dummy” ?
