On May 8, at the county's "Gay Day" event in Dayton, Tennessee, police arrested two christians as they were fastening the beams of one of their ten-ffot crosses, which they often use in parades arond the nation in order to draw people to Christ. Without incident, they were arrested and charged with "disorderly conduct" and "interfering with a special event." They were both freed after posting the required $500 bond. Dayton police chief Kenneth Walker admitted to reporters "They wanted to go down to protest and we told them they couldn't" "they were arrested;that's it."

I don't know what you're talking about and neither do you. LOL! Perhaps we can round up a bunny with a pancake on its head for newbie "inflation"? ;-)

Gads! Is he back?
More Protestor Stone Soup from freeeee.
I see this is as complicated as the other one: Dayton police chief Kenneth Walker admitted to reporters "They wanted to go down to protest and we told them they couldn't" "They were arrested; that's it."

Here's what they should have done: claimed to be
gay Christians, who just wanted to be included in the symbols of Christianity by displaying them at their event.
Would have totally confused the cops: "But if they're gay, are we still allowed to arrest them?" ;-)
