If this is an accurate summary of the case, I would imagine the verdict will be reversed on appeal...

And he should make quite a bit of money in the lawsuit.

But he's got to find a different judge.

Lavendar Mafia ping. Notice they don't name the judge in this article. If anyone can find it, I'd be curious to do a google search on the character to see if he any other 'gay' ties.

I just found this:

Notation: Petrese Tucker, the federal judge who presided over the trial, received both her bachelor's and law degrees from Temple University, was employed as an adjunct professor, and had received awards from the university while the litigation was pending. She refused to recuse herself and clearly affected the outcome of the trial by withholding key evidence from the jury.

I did not know that anyone could be arrested for speaking against homosexuality. Sounds like a blatant disregard for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Those involved with his arrest should perhaps be arrested.

Apparently this judge, Petrese Tucker has previously ruled against Michael Marcavage.

Judge rules against Christians who preached to Homosexuals:

Judge Petrese B. Tucker, for the second time, has refused to sanction the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office for what the Christians' attorneys say are "retaliatory criminal proceedings."

"he represented a "clear and present danger to others"; that he had "inflicted or attempted to inflict serious bodily harm on another"



This sounds more like John Chaney.

If the world was just and fair and wisdom and common sense prevailed. But that is a very big IF. I have grown cynical- grown why I have become a giant of cynicism when it comes to our judicial system. Judges for some reason are given so much leeway in which evidence is allowed to proceed through trial. This is inexecusable and if at one time its purpose was quite sensible needs to be revisited and tailored to prevent judicial despots from skewering verdicts.

According to Fahling, under Pennsylvania law, a person that is involuntarily committed for a psychological evaluation "has to be a clear threat to himself or a clear threat to others," though he and Marcavage deny that the student "in any way" fits the criteria.

I find it amazing, that just 35 years ago, homosexuality was still considered a mental disorder by the "psychiatric" profession.

Now the kid who is affirming his 1st Amendment Right to speak out against it, especially in the name of Jesus is being persecuted by the State.

Something smells diabolical here.

What the heck????? Whe is an EMPLOYEE of a party in the case and didn't recuse herself? I believe that that alone is grounds for an overturning of the ruling. This should also be filed as a complaint to the BAR association and to any and all ethics panels that could have jurisdiction.

Federal judge? I wonder who appointed her.

Homosexual Agenda Ping PLUS Moral Absolutes Ping.

More in detail on the leader of the group of Chrisitans who were arrested at the Philadelphia "OutFest" and finally had their charges dropped.

This is another case - and if, as Scripter says, this is an accurate description of what happened, is quite terrible. I've read another couple of articles about it, and they are all in agreement. Reminds one of the Soviet Union when religious believers were considered insane and sent to mental institutions.

I'm really starting to think in terms of civil disobedience. Plays or other "expression" based on vile blasphemy should not be legal. I know many will disagree, but after due consideration, it is the right thing to do. And the Founding Fathers would agree.

Let DirtyHarryY2K and me know if you want on/off the Homosexual Agenda Pinglist, and let ME know if you want (back)on/off the Moral Absolutes pinglist.
