Is it illegal to preach Christianity to Muslims in America now?
Acts 17 Apologetics, a Christian evangelistic group, was banned from passing out fliers at this years Arab Festival in Dearborn, Mich., but they went to the festival anyway and ended up getting arrested.
On Saturday, I got this message from David Wood of Acts 17: Muslims threatened to kill Nabeel [Qureshi, an ex-Muslim and Davids colleague] and me if we showed up again at Arab Fest in Dearborn, so we went there yesterday. They didnt kill us. Instead, police arrested us and we got to spend a night in jail (along with two others who were video recording us).
Wondering if they were arrested for passing out fliers in defiance of the ban, I asked David about the ban. He answered, Yes, were banned from handing out literature, but we didnt do that. We followed the rules, and still got thrown in jail. They flat out lied about us. We can prove they lied with the video footage (just like last year), but the police took our cameras and wont let us have the footage. Theres major oppression of anyone who criticizes Islam.
Last year, Nabeel, David and friends went to the Arab Festival and filmed a video that went viral. It is amazing to see in that video what happened in America. It was free speech under siege.
Nabeel and David were harassed and intimidated, aided and abetted by law enforcement.

If not for FR, I wouldn’t know anything about this. America is on the decline. It was nice while it lasted.
They're in good company. The original apostles spent some time in jail because they were carrying out Jesus' commission.
I hope they’re suing the city for all they have

Islam is the religion of peace, and we will behead you to prove it!
Atlas Shrugs is where I first came across this story. Great site for news on Islam's war on civilization.
“police took our cameras and wont let us have the footage”
That’s disgusting. Next time they need a video sender & a guy in a car recording.
“Where are all the investigative network journalists?”
More importantly where’s our “ACLU”? How come we on the right don’t have a legal organization defending our rights as aggressively as the left’s ACLU, or the islamists’ CAIR?
I spoke directly with the Dearborn Chief of Police, Mohammed Akbar Shaleka Hussein this morning, and he said the two men are lying infidels and will be beheaded as a tribute to Allah. So I concluded everything was fine, and intend to just move along. Nothing to see here!
Too bad I didn’t know about it. I would have taken a portable pig roaster and set up a stand. Let the aroma of roasted pig waft through the crowd of Islamic pigs.
There aren't any multi-billionaire conservative sugar-daddies to fund our legal defense. The only institution that comes close is the NRA, with grass-roots funding.
All of big money is on the left. The fabulously wealthy philanthropists, foundations, and tax-funded advocacy groups are all left-wing kooks.
Anyone who’s ever been to Dearborn would only wonder why it’s taken this long.
3 Arabic words for the Muslims on the streets of Dearborn (for which I might be stoned, were I there):
Isa bin Allah!
“America is on the decline”
Yes, it certainly is.
It’s a damn shame what’s happening to this country. Just a few years ago, I would have never thought it would be like this.
Hopefully many Americans feel the same, and the results of the next elections will get America back on a proper course.
BUMP
Thats WHY? the muslim shamans literally HATE CARTOONS..
even a brain washed idiot can understand a cartoon..
**Note; T-shirts with cartoons on them front and back could be a good idea also.. that way you need to hand nothing out..
The only way they could have been arrested legaly if there were on private property and were asked to leave but didn’t. Not enough info in the article, but from what I read it was on public land so this looks to not be the case.
“Too bad I didnt know about it. I would have taken a portable pig roaster and set up a stand. Let the aroma of roasted pig waft through the crowd of Islamic pigs.”
Next year’s festival. Do it. Bring plenty of friends with you, and cameras.

I am thinking some kind of mobile pull behind a pickup truck kind of BBQ grill. I am sure that is pure fantasy though....
