Why Can’t Houses of Worship Just be Off Limits?

Block the people trying to get into a church for a service? Also not peaceful, even if they do it in silence.

I agree, whether it’s a church, an abortion clinic or a road, protesters should never have the right to block it.

Even for that. Protests should not be violent, or disruptive, or malicious.

Your thinking is essentially what’s behind these Church attacks now. What Catholic SCOTUS justices are doing is horrible (in their opinion.) What the Catholic Church promotes and teaches is horrible (in their opinion).

Don’t open that door. It leads to a bad hallway.

agree with that.

What I’m thinking of is, say you got word that a priest in your town molested a couple kids and was waiting for trial, but still leading services.

I would shout in my bull horn on that one. Because it’s HIM. Not the faith…

Again, just a wild example. I agree. Let people pray. We all need some kind of break, these days more than every. let the church be theirs for those who want it.

Agree. For all those examples. And many more.

Truly wild. Because the practice within the Catholic Church (and probably most any faith expression) is that a guy on trial will not be leading services. In fact, (at least for the Catholic Church), the guy is put on leave as soon as a credible accusation is lodged, not just while he is on trial.

But even if your example were actually occurring, non-peaceful protesting is still out of bounds.

Again, don’t open that door. It leads to a bad hallway.

Remember when we used to have Presidents that would denounce violence and threats directed at people because of their religion?

There are good people on both sides.

Sticking with that lie no matter what I see. That was in reference to both sides of the debate on the issue, not the protest. But you know that.

Um you did read that at St. Patrick’s a right wing antiabortion political group has regular meetups there…right?

You’re seriously going to post that left wingers are the only ones politicizing house of worship?

Seriously?

@Smyrna

The question now is our government; will they turn their head or will the prosecute these criminals?

The current Obama legacy Government won’t since Bidens DOJ is too busy prosecuting political prisoners that were “set up” on Jan 6, 2020 and oh yeah don’t forget the domestic mom and dad terrorists at school board meetings.

Police on Long Island are looking for the persons who vandalized a mosque, burning a sacred flag and spray painting pro-Trump graffiti on the marble base.

A man who once reported about political extremism in Portland, Oregon, was arrested this week in connection with a string of vandalism incidents at synagogues and a mosque there.

So where is the hunting down, charges and arrests of those pro-abortion whackos?

It won’t happen and we know why.

You don’t think the police are investigating these attacks?

It is amazing the extent you guys are able to warp reality in order to feel like victims.

We’re expected to believe law enforcement showed up to investigate the sidewalk chalk that sent chills down Susan Collins’ spine, but that attacks against places of worship will go uninvestigated

It’s not that they may not be investigated but that these same conclude that even though the perps may be guilty of the crime, they won’t press charges because they may not have “intended” to attack the church and we now know that no prosecutor would prosecute them if that’s the case?

This is word salad.

Who are “these same?”

I imagine the Madison PD is investigating the attack on the pro-life center - are they part of the Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory now, too?

@zantax

What is this supposed to mean? Are you trying to insinuate anyone here is for attacking mosques?

Just another display of lib mental weakness, justifying violence as his way…to get even.

The claptrap is strong in here. lol

@Smyrna

From the OP’s article; Several pro-choice protests and vandalism …

It was peaceful vandalism, dontchaknow…

Perhaps we should bring back some peaceful Indonesian style floggings for these Thugs?

Like the American kid who thought it funny to key a bunch of cars?

@STODR

I would go one further, if a church does that they should loose their tax exempt status.

That would disproportionately affect black people.

It’s called the Comey precedent.
