A young Republican activist was blocked from a church in Philadelphia by woke activists who formed a human wall to keep him out, according to video footage.
Frank Scales, 22, founder of Surge Philly, shared footage showed a group of activists barring his entry to a town hall with woke Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner last Thursday night at the historic Mother Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Society Hill.
“You’re not coming in. You’re not coming in. Simple as that. You’re not coming into our sacred spaces,” a man outside the 19th-century church holding a bullhorn tells Scales, in footage shared by Surge Philly, a young Republicans group, on Instagram.

*** PA PING **
Dems against free speech strike again.
I saw the video. I thought they were refusing him entry into the church just because the young man was White, which would have been bad enough.
Apparently, they knew something about him.
He still should have been allowed into a public place.
Makes them look as though they have something to hide.
“formed a human wall.”
But elsewhere in the story is said they were leftists.
Changed the subject.
Full disclosure: I have been considering conditional stages of the loose definitions of human. Take a good look at Watters, JD Pritzker, Rep. Al Green, Corey Booker, Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid and any crowd of leftists in demonstrations or TV interviews on the street. And especially those who celebrate killing Charlie Kirk. And cheer Luigi.
Listen to them.
Look at what policies they pursue.
Examine the violent threats they have been making against us for a long time. Read the details of their home invasions, raping women and children, pushing people onto subway tracks, carjacking with a child in the car, gang crimes, shootings that get blamed on “gun violence.”
Those who are kind to the cruel
will in the end be cruel to the kind.
—Talmud on Ecclesiastes.
Violation of freedom of assembly. Pure and simple.
I thought for sure this was satire by the Babylon Bee.

Is the Bethel in the church’s name in honor of the golden calf set up in Bethel by Jeroboam (I Kings 12.29)?

Pennsylvania Ping!

Revoke their 501c3
The Democrats have repudiated peaceful coexistence.
They don’t want to be caught. Delaware is a Philly city-state.
And thus revealing their true colors.
Social justice church, the wicked fruit of the faulse Prophet mlk, jr.
If I shoot their bullhorn full of foam, as self defense for my ears, what trouble am I in?
Was it a public event? The church has every right to decide who attends an event being held there. Unless it was sponsored by a government body it was actually a private event.
How? Please explain which government body denied him that right?
You’re being sarcastic, right?
That needs to be scrapped.
