Man in Bright Green 'Jesus Saves' Shirt Stands Firm as Mall of America Security Guard Orders Him to Remove It
People are beginning talk more & more about the ridiculousness of 'how easily offended' our society is today. There's also more talk of the present and coming persecution of those who follow Jesus Christ. Here's a good example of both that recently happened at the Mall of America.
A man wearing a shirt that said “Jesus Saves” was informed by mall security that he either needed to remove his shirt or leave the Mall of America, according to a video shared on Twitter.
In the video, a man was seen in the Bloomington, Minnesota, mall speaking to a pair of security officers, one of which claimed that the shirt he was wearing counts as “soliciting.”
His shirt’s front read “Jesus Saves,” and the back stated “Jesus Is The Only Way” with a “Coexist” sign that has a line slashed through it.
Shoro pointed out that he didn’t approach anyone to speak about religion. He just wore a shirt. “I didn’t say anything though. I didn’t speak. I didn’t say anything. I just went to Macy’s,” he said.
The guards remained stubborn.
“Again, I’m giving you a couple options,” the guard said. “You can take the shirt off and you can go to Macy’s and you can do your shopping. Or you can leave the mall, OK? Those are your only options right now.”
Shoro repeatedly asked what he has actually done wrong. The male security guard eventually spelled it out clearly.
“It is religious soliciting, and there is no soliciting allowed on mall property which is private property… You’re still soliciting. And again, yes, you’re walking wearing that shirt in the form of soliciting, and we’ve had guests come up saying they have been offended by your shirt.”
Yes, it’s a loud shirt. There’s no denying that. But to term it “offensive” and demand its removal is silly.
What do you think?
A protest has been planned for Feb. 4, according to a Facebook post by Bloomington Patriots.
