A recent article on Fox News called "Taking Liberties: Arrested for reading the Bible?" tells about a man named Mark Mackey arrested for trying to preach the word of Jesus Christ to his local neighborhood in California. As he preached before a crowd of people he then approached by a California state policeman, and immediately arrested. Mackey then said, "Folks, this is what the world is coming to." I personally think he shouldn't have been arrested because my mom goes out on the street and tells everyone about jesus christ and never arrested for it before. Also another reason I think this man shouldn't have been arrested is because of the first amendment which allows the freedom of speech. The man that arrested him had to be apart of another religion because there is no way you should be discriminated against for having a peaceful announcement to make. It is just common sense, no one was hurt, upset or even talked about against this man. Did this man make his preaching so exposing, no. Did he ever disrespect anyone, no. Did he make it seem like everyone else was inferior to his religion, no! So, why did he get arrested, for no apparent reason to me. He was just doing what he thought was right. That is just what I think, that's it.
