While I have no sympathy for the "godhatesfags" types, they have every right to protest the parade. They did not have the right to try and take over the stage and shout down the participants.
I get pissed when lefties on college campuses shout down conservative speakers. It is rude and does not do service to one's cause. I certainly am not going to defend it when so-called "conservatives" do this.
These "Christians" were rude and disobeyed an order to vacate the stage. They deserved getting arrested.
Furthermore, yes, homosexuals born in the United States are "fellow citizens" whether you like it or not.
This is the important part of this discussion. If Marcavage tresspassed then he should be arrested for tresspass. But this reporting indicates that people were arrested, not for tresspass, but for quoting scripture.
BTW, thats a violation of two sections of the 1A.
You obviously have not read anything about this case, you are creating a straw man by equating these people with Phelps "GodHatesFags" who is likely a leftist plant anyway. You are saying a peaceful protest is the equivalent of a known nutcase psycho.
The protesters were not on a stage, there were on a sidewalk and from people who have seen the video, they moved when cops told them to.
What's wrong with you?
