You really need to work on trying to bait people into gotchas. You aren’t asking questions like that “out of curiosity” in a genuine manner, and I don’t feel like helping you feel superior tonight. You can easily figure out the answer to your own question via any search engine of your choice.
Go jerk off in the mirror somewhere else.

I think this happened in 2022 with the pastor being arrested multiple times throughout the year for reading the Bible at various protest and demonstration events around the city.
He's since gone on to challenge his arrests in court and won at least one case (maybe more) that provided him relief, monetary damages, and a consent order against the city.
The guy's name is Matthew Meinecke.

Despite how it got to court, this was a huge win for free speech advocates everywhere, and it has led to real, positive change in that city. Speaking of change, it looks like the pastor got a little bit of that for his troubles, too.

I mean Tennessee is a relatively conservative state and it's state police are completely out of fricking control. And God help you if you have to bump into the Bubba Police Departments. You know the Departments where they basically can't hire anything better than your typical Home Depot clerk to throw a badge on?
I don't know anything about TSP, but I do know about those small town departments. In a lot of those places, Home Depot pays more

The cops would have left him alone if he had vandalized a Tesla.

Definitely more to that video than what was posted.
I assume the satanist citizens of Seattle called the police telling them that he man was being violent and threatening everyone for that many LEOs to show up.
Even in the most liberal shithole 6-8 LEOs do not respond to only a man reading a bible.
Anyone who believes in and loves the Lord Jesus should flee from cities like this at all cost. You can not live among them and retain your salvation. As Our Lord Jesus said, Let the dead bury the dead.

Why are you attempting to apply logic…it was in Seattle.

People here don’t seem to like being challenged. Very quick to anger.
Brought to you by the ideology that has troons shooting up schools, murdering CEO’s, and setting Teslas & police stations on fire all across the country.
But yes, we express verbal outrage at a fellow American being denied his 1st Amendment rights.

As a conservative myself it's really one of the most mind-boggling realities in all of politics
Agreed 100%. It is mind boggling. I have yet to find one cop that put the Constitution first. They don't care. At all.
Both of you are painting with an incredibly broad brush. Most of the conservatives I know back the blue when they are in the right and want them prosecuted when they abuse their authority. And cops are sworn to uphold the laws of the municipality, county, or state they are in, not the Constitution, unfortunately. But even so, if you watch any of the 1st Amendment audit people, almost every time there are cops who understand and uphold the Constitution.
