The mall is private propery. If the owners wanna be jerks, they can.

I thought Islam considers Jesus Christ a prophet.

‘1A is not a privilege, it’s a right!’

it also does not apply to private property...

Probably some people would find a “Moses Invests” T-shirt offensive too.

“Moses Invests”

I thought it was ‘Moses supposes...’

I don’t like to be preached at. If he was being quiet and just standing there i see no problem.

This is an interesting video.

The man with the Jesus shirt says that he wasn't saying anything [to the people complaining].

Was he *silently* handing out tracts? But this too is strange because the mall cops were fixated on the shirt, telling him that there was no soliciting allowed, that all he had to do to keep shopping was to remove the shirt, which was over another shirt anyway.

???

The bonus detail in the vid is the LEGO shopping bag that passes by just behind them.

"Play well!"

In any case, a flash mob flood of Jesus shirts is planned for February 4th.

That too is odd. Isn't the concept of a flash mob one of spontaneity?

Sounds like Minnesota needs to join Hell.

I would have walked away because their premise is absurd as it is unconstitutional. When they tackled me and pummeled me with clubs I would do my best to be secure in my Lord’s promises. Air time on TV of the authorities clubbing and tazing an innocent man for wearing a Jesus shirt would be gravy as well as the law suit settlement.

That hasn’t seemed to stop them from killing Christians over the last 1600 years....

“ Jesus warned there would be days like this.”

So did Van Morrison’s mom.

(With sincere apologies, I just couldn’t resist.)

“I think it was more likely they didn’t want him proselytizing ...”

I think it’s not about what specifically was on the shirt, but that management doesn’t want any display that could incite violence.

Someone on Twitter said “Blart’ the security guard, needs to be told about freedom of speech.

Already seeing T shirts being marketed out of this, with Jesus Saves on the front and the Co-Exist logo—with a line through it—on the back (plus “Jesus is the only way”)

(tshirtsatlowprice):
>>has gone viral on the Internet after a security guard in the Mall of America asked a black man in a t-shirt that said “Jesus Saves” to leave the mall because of his shirt

If I were to wear one, I would have ‘Jesus Saves” printed on both sides. To be honest, having the rest: Co-Exist bla, blah shown as crossed out is plainly the display of a rejection. That is his right to reject. I don’t argue with that part.

The shirt as is would be enough for some of the Alphabet Folks to glom onto, saying my T-Shirt was not really about Jesus Christ, but actually a mobile sandwich board, of rejection for certain groups of people. This is how they think. I don’t agree with it, but I would prefer to have my message a clear and simple one. The objection to that T-Shirt may not have been about Jesus Christ at all.

Get a bunch of .22 spent shells and put a couple in every planter and fountain.
