Street Preacher Has Bible Torn To Shreds At Seattle Pride
The Daily Caller ^ | June 26, 2023 | Mia Hernandez

Street preacher Matthew Meinecke’s Bible was torn to shreds after he read its contents aloud at Seattle Pride on Sunday, according to footage from the event.

Meinecke who is also known was the “The Seattle Preacher” was barked at and taunted by attendees who waved transgender Pride flags in his face as he attempted to read the Bible, video showed. Other attendees at Seattle Pride included naked men riding bikes, furries and nude adults standing in fountains in front of children.

“Have fun doing this at a Pride event when no one wants you doing this,” the Bible-tearer can be heard saying to Meinecke in a video shared by Jonathan Choe, a journalist for Discovery Institute.

Security and the attacker’s friends can be heard asking the person to stop.

In a video taken by Katie Daviscourt, reporter for The Post Millennial, Meinecke can be seen standing and reading his Bible while he is barked at by Pride participants.

In another video from Choe, Meinecke is asked to leave by security for “protesting” and “demonstrating” without a permit.

“It’s religion, man. You can’t discriminate based upon my religion,” Meinecke said in the video posted by Choe.

Security and Pride attendees can be seen gathering around Meinecke and alleging that he was carrying signs in protest.

Meinecke is not new to reading the Bible at Pride events, as he was arrest twice in 2022, once for being at a Pride event and the second time while at an abortion rally, ChurchLeaders reported.

His Bible was torn apart “kicked around like a soccer ball” and thrown in a portable toilet, according to ChurchLeaders.

Seattle Pride did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

“Hey blue line lovers.
1. Did the police protect this man’s right to his religion? NOPE
2. Did the police protect his rights to gather and redress his grievances and protest? NOPE
3. Did the police arrest the criminals? NOPE
4. Why do police arrest him? They don’t stand for the Constitution anymore.

Why would you support people who violate their oaths?
It’s not all cops, but if you have bad cops and the good ones do nothing, they are all bad cops then.

My dad was a career police officer in multiple states and multiple agencies for over 30 years. He is rolling in his grave at 10,000 RPM over these crimes. He died as a Sheriff deputy.”

*******************************

In a youtube video I saw recently one commentator said something interesting and I thought about posting that video but didn’t because it would cause a stir

He said “Defund the LA police because they do nothing to stop the lewd behavior that goes on at these gay pride parades”.

He has a point. All the nudity, bdsm, sometimes live sex. Don’t we have laws on the books about these? Florida did have the pride parade this year because DeSantis said he’s enforce the laws and the gays there knew some of their members could not be controlled.

Why are gays allowed to do this when you know strait people are not?

One should not take a good quality Bible to such a protest as it is sure to get torn and thrown. Get a cheap $1 one at a discount store or a well worn one free at the Salvation Army.
I remember a Unitarian Universalist so-called “preacher” who grabbed a good one from the hands of an anti-abortionist preacher decades ago in Tulsa OK.
The UU “preacher” bragged about how he still had that bible several months later.

It is amazing that a book composed between 3500 and 2000 years ago still brings out the beast within certain people. I bet the Street Preacher was reading Leviticus 18 to them and it cut them to the quick.
A warning to us...

Leviticus 18:27 for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. 28 And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.

More like this

Romans 1 24 Wherefore God gave them up to the desires of their heart, unto uncleanness, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves.

Absolutely! And they can be printed faster than the unbelievers can destroy them! It is not like the olden days of handwritten bibles.

It is not the ink on paper. It is what it does to you after you read it and it makes a change in you.

Guess you do not believe in the constitution? Yes peaceful demonstrations are indeed an absolute right on public grounds.

If you have a problem with that the take it up with the US Constitution. Why do you believe you need the governments permission, via a permit, to speak and protest peacefully? You might be surprised to know the Supreme Court has ruled on this and no permit is required for any such protest.

Which man do you trust having control over your freedoms since you have decided to dismiss the idea of rights from God? Why should I not get to decide what rights you have?

I did not serve my country and defend the constitution so people like you can decide when a person is allowed to exercise their free speech in public spaces. Quite the tyrannical streak you are exposing there.

Prediction: The Bible will soon be banned as “hate speech”, despite it being all about God’s love. People want to wallow in their sin.

“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in this city, flee to another...

“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household! Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

“Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

“Seattle is one of the worst DEMOCRAT Shit Hole cities in America.”

In terms of liberalness it’s right up there but relatively little of the demographic problems along with the crime you get in other large cities.
