Wasn’t it kind of the government courts in California to say that these Christians were allowed to have their rights to free religious expression? ...Back in 2011 Mark Mackey and Bret Coronado were arrested and charged with misdemeanor offenses for reading the Bible outside the DMV location. ... But on August 13, Superior Court Judge Timothy Freer found the men ‘not guilty’ of any offenses. ...Interestingly, the judge also pointed out that the law prosecutors tried to invoke was likely unconstitutional as it gave law enforcement overbroad powers to quash public gatherings in the first place. Sadly, this case did not go toward settling the constitutionality of the law, but it was a victory of sorts to have the judge even mention the fact."

Yes, there were actually Americans arrested for reading the Bible on public property. What do you think the chances are that two Muslims reading the Quran would have been arrested under the same circumstances?

I don't necessarily agree that all the other examples on this site are legitimate examples of discrimination but I think the one that I posted definitely is.

Another unbiased article there Robert? According to you only liberals are brainwashed by the media. Im sure the police report said "arrested for reading the bible". Any chance whatsoever that they just happened to be reading the bible while commiting another crime? For you to insinuate that Christians are routinely discriminated against in this country is patently absurd.
