Lawyers are a double edged sword. Of course, both edges get paid.

Every single one of those parishioners should sue his stupid ass along with every other church disrupting invader from that day. Please do it.

Commies hate it when you use their own tactics against them.

I can’t believe it has taken this long for victims of this idiocy to finally sue. Everyone in that church should sue, individually, bankrupt that clown.

Watch him set up a GoFundMe.

He’s entitled, and has no shame.

Daily Caller makes it sound like that's some kind of crime.

No not woke. It defends the rest of the American church from similar antics.

You are exactly right, and I can’t believe I didn’t take note of it.

Each person should wait until one case is done, and sue him one after another, one at a time. Stretch it out for yeeeeeeears!

The process is part of the punishment, along with owing big bucks every time!

The membership should join together and hit him with a class action suit.
