ANTI-ICE Agitators Storm Church, Harass Christians During Worship… And Don Lemon Joins In (VIDEO)
They asserted their 'first amendment rights' even as they violated the First Amendment rights of others
As the political tug-of-war over immigration enforcement rages on in Minnesota, the hardline activists have escalated to a whole new kind of brazenness. The same people who throw the term ‘islamophobia’ around like it’s confetti have no hesitation insisting their cause be worshipped above God Himself.
That would be an insanely bold statement if we didn’t have evidence of agitators storming a church in the middle of a service and demeaning them for being in Church on a Sunday instead of joining their political protest against ICE. They were absolutely shameless in how they walked in, disrupted worship, and commandeered the service for the delivery of a message of their own choosing.
You know damned well not one of them would have dreamed of doing the same supposing a Mosque had taken a public stand against their views.
I’m always saddened when people ask me where I go to church, because I know I can’t tell them.
The church and congregation would be targeted by the Left, like this and it wouldn’t be fair to them.

This is from Don Lemon’s livestream.
BREAKING: Protesters disrupted a Cities Church service this morning in Minneapolis after alleging one of the church’s lead pastors is an ICE agent.

Notice how, partway through his description of events he slips from describing the protesters as ‘they’ and starts using the first-person ‘we’. He is one of them. He is by no means a ‘neutral observer’, but he is part of this protest.
Of course, not all protests are equally valid. Some are actually criminal violations of the rights of others.
You’d think a washed-up CNN Journo might be conversant with the First Amendment. The same Amendment that enshrines free speech, also enshrines peaceful assembly and freedom of worship. Rights that were being trampled in this little exercise of ‘civil disobedience’.
Whatever you think of the caption, this post covers another aspect of the protesters’ contempt for the worship of anything other than their own cause:
This is a communist revolution. That’s why they are walking into Church to make people uncomfortable.

Here’s Don Lemon again, this time leaning in with a microphone at the pastor trying to lecture him about what it is to be Christian. Plus some context that puts his claim of acting within the scope of the First Amendment.

Laws like this one might come into play at the state level, or (since Keith Ellison is unlikely to prosecute his political allies) this one at the federal level.
Beyond that, this is exactly the sort of egregious civil rights violation that gets Harmeet animated.

The guy harassing Christians in the video at the top of this story was arrested on Friday, and out again on Sunday because of Minnesota’s catch-and-release policy.
