New in PJ Media:
Wait, is being rude a felony now?
Apparently it is, at least in (of all places) Florida. The New York Post reported Saturday that “three men stormed a University of South Florida parking garage and harassed Muslim students during dawn prayer on Tuesday — an incident captured in videos that showed the group shouting slurs, waving bacon and crowding worshipers as they bowed.” For that “all three face a felony count of disturbing schools and religious assemblies under Florida’s hate-crime enhancement statute, along with misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and disrupting a school or lawful assembly.”
Wait a minute. They said insulting words, waved bacon around, and got too close to the Muslims, and for that they’re facing felony charges? Yes, and it gets worse. The Post notes that “the charges followed a multi-day investigation sparked by footage showing the men approaching students during fajr prayer on the roof of the Collins Boulevard Parking Garage.”
Fajr is one of Islam’s five daily prayers and takes place in the early morning, as soon as a white thread can be distinguished from a black thread in natural light. The Post doesn’t bother to explain why the Muslim students were praying this prayer in a parking garage. Nor does it explain how the three men who are now facing felony charges happened to be in the same parking garage at a time of day when not many people are up and about.
This was no coincidence. There are plenty of mosques in south Florida, and specifically at the University of South Florida, as well as plenty of comfortable enclosed spaces. Yet these students opted instead to pray the fajr prayer in a parking garage, and evidently made a public enough show of it that these three men who have now been charged, who are Christian evangelists, knew they would be there.
Muslim public prayer is a declaration of supremacism and dominance, as we have recently seen in several European countries, as well as in New York City and Philadelphia, where large numbers of Muslims have taken over public spaces and even blocked streets for prayer. This is in line with the declaration of Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, that “Islam must dominate, and not be dominated” (Sahih Al-Jami 2778).
Yet in reporting on the incident in Florida, the media has ignored all of that, and focuses entirely on the Christians’ response. According to the Post, the three men who were arrested were “Christopher Svochak of Waco, Texas; Richard Penskoski of Canyon, Okla., and Ricardo Yepez of Tampa.” One of them “carried a cardboard box reading ‘Kaaba 2.0 Jesus is Lord,’ while another wore a thobe emblazoned with ‘Jesus is God.’”
There is more. Read the rest here.

What can they possibly charge them with? I hope there is at least on rational Judge left in the country to throw this out.

What about blasting out loud bagpipes over the cunts ?

If rudeness is a crime and this “law” applied evenly, then half the entire Left would be behind bars
Huapakechi says
Only half?

Does this mean eating bacon in public could result in felony charges and prison time? And I suppose I’ll have to listen to their loud call to prayers five times a day too. Wake up America we are being invaded by Islam and will lose our freedom if this migration invasion continues.

South Florida is overrun with muzzies….Broward county had at least one muzzie deputy sheriff….who instructed his fellow muzzies in *self defense.* (for all those times when Christians attack them with words about Jesus and pork products)
No State’s Attorney should carry this forward.
This should be tossed as a *frivolous* suit. I just hope the guys have good attorneys and go before a reasonably intelligent judge.

I hope these Christians sue the uni police dept. and the university for violating their civil rights and false arrest because that’s exactly what these f’ing LEOs were doing and no, just following orders should be no excuse.
Namer says
But isn’t it funny how muslims can go INTO churches to disrupt services and thats OK.
T.jefferson says
America has allowed apathy, cognitive dissonance and ignorance of history to infect its minds.
The destruction of our way of life will continue unabated, until all liberty is gone and perhaps replaced with sharia.
THEN…..the sheeple may wake up….but it will be too late.
Wake up America!!!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Is Rudeness a Crime? In Florida, Christians Face Felony Charges for Disrupting Muslim Prayer
……………………………………………………..
How did they “charge” a public parking garage? Thus is not the Muslims’ private property. The whole thing is absurd.
