I rarely side with the person freaking out publicly, but this is one of those times. I'd be right there with him, too.

I’m torn. If they are illegally set up there and that is in fact the business property - then yes absolutely should not be allowed.

If that is not the case, then the worker might be out of line here - even though I completely disagree with the Christian’s messaging and how they are going about it.

Paradox of tolerance and all that…

When someone's preaching hate, they're already out of line.

Fuck 'em. Eradicate hate. Give an inch, and they'll take a mile.

Think of the paradox as a social contract; once you no longer have tolerance for divergent viewpoints, your viewpoints no longer have to be tolerated by others.

Can you really own the sidewalk in front of your building? Otto should paint it rainbow. That would (might. Fuck it, probably not) keep those jokers from setting up there.
