With regard to the below story wherein a latino loudly accused the church or a priest of
hiring someone who is clearly a racist, there is a lesson learned here.
He was criminalized essentially for voicing under his First Amendment right to Free Speech
contrary views to the church party line- he was hit with charges of disturbing the peace unlawfully (disrupting the brain dead coma that allowed this principal to be hired in the first place) and apparently had a knife on his possession- not that he brandished it and maybe it was a pocket switchblade he always carried and forgot he had in his pocket.
Let me express here the deepest outrage at the DISGUSTING posture the church took for
someone expressing what apparently everyone was too spineless to either see or confront.
It is DISGUSTING to criminalize free speech or dissent with views held. In the Quaker world
this sort of thing is called "a move of the Spirit" and everyone is invited to voice their concerns.
One guy taking it upon himself to tell the truth to a congregation is not
disturbing the peace- he is making a clear path for the way of the Lord, just like John the Baptist who got arrested for nothing.
If this gets even papered for prosecution I will be appalled.
