Sounds to me like this guy wasn’t removed because of his shirt, but because he has a history of proselytizing at the Mall and had been removed/asked to leave many times before because of it.

Obviously, media can’t get stories accurate to save their lives, but certainly seems like this guy had been informed and asked to leave before for doing things against the mall’s rules.

Whether I agree with those rules or not... this doesn’t appear to be a case of just some random person walking in with a Jesus saves shirt and being asked to leave because of it, but someone who has come into the property multiple times to proselytize and been explained why he couldn’t and removed on more than one occasion.

Thank you. I asked my wife when we saw the video-—was he harassing people? Was he going up to them and stating something or simply wearing the shirt. If someone goes in every day wearing that shirt but walking around, then I see no problem. I assume people come up to him and ask him-—because we know how offended idiots in this country are...if 5-6 people a day STOP HIM, then maybe some woke store owner is complaining that he’s “harassing people”.

However, they kept telling him to remove his shirt and nothing more-—now that is a concern. That’s why I believe it’s the latter...people asking him and the left does not like the truth. Main point, we know if a guy walked around every day with a “Christians suck” shirt this would be a moot point.

I watched part of the video and in that segment the mall cop clearly told the man to remove the T-shirt, with no mention of proselytizing.

If I was walking past and he said something like “Jesus Saves” that would be OK. But I’d have a problem is he followed me down the hall preaching all the way.

From what i understand, that day he wasn’t speaking about salvation. That day he was just wearing the shirt and shopping himself in the mall from what I understood of a previous article. They never told him that he was banned from the mall.

His shirt had the symbols for other religions on the back crossed out intimation that christ is the only way, and some hurty Feely wokester took offense to that, complained, and they were throwing him out based on what he was wearing that day, not based on what he said that day.

From the article

“The security guard said the man’s religious tee still counted as soliciting even if he was not actively preaching”

“However, the man was eventually allowed to keep his shirt on and go about his shopping, a spokesperson for the mall said”
