A video of the arrest of one young man was posted and shared on various social media platforms.
The one-minute and 29-second video clip shows several police officers approaching Marcus Schroeder as he stands on a public sidewalk outside the event, reading the Bible over a loudspeaker.
One of the officers, who has sergeant stripes on his sleeves, suddenly grabs the microphone away from him. As he questions what they are doing, the officers inform Schroeder he is being arrested for violating a sound ordinance about noise amplification.
Then the video shows three officers grabbing the young man and leading him away in handcuffs. Another young man was detained and removed from the park but was later released with a warning.
Three were arrested earlier in the day while inside the park praying and talking to attendees, and then released with warnings.
About one hundred Christians went to minister to those attending a drag queen show for children in Watertown, Wisconsin. The minister of evangelism at Mercy Seat Christian Church in Brookfield, Wisconsin, took the video.
In a Wednesday post on the church’s Facebook page, he said his daughter was among the four arrested.“
“Rather than arrest those sexualizing children, the police arrested four Christians exercising their First Amendment rights, including my daughter and one of my sons-in-law.”
“One was arrested later in the day for preaching on the public sidewalk outside the venue and is being charged with unlawful use of sound amplification and resisting arrest,” he said.
He also claimed several police officers were at the park to provide security for the drag queen show, where performers dressed in lingerie were seen
“dancing and gyrating in front of little children, who were invited to give them one dollar bills.”
It’s the Governor’s job to uphold the law, not uphold his own personal beliefs.
According to Wisconsin Law, causing a child under the age of 13 to view or listen to sexual activity is a Class F felony.
If the child has not attained the age of 18, it is considered a Class H felony.
Wisconsin Gov. Evers, a Democrat, posted a statement defending the drag event.
“LGBTQ Wisconsinites deserve to be treated with dignity, decency, kindness, and respect just like every other Wisconsinite,” the statement said.
“They deserve to be safe being who they are without fear or threat of shame, harassment, intimidation, or violence,” he said.
The Word of God says you will know a fool by what they say.
Proverbs 18:2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 14:7 Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.
Proverbs 14:16 A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
John 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
Schroeder said he had no regrets for his actions and that his arrest was “an honor.”
Marcus Schroeder addressed the city council, residents, and the audience; when he showed up at the park on Saturday, he said he read from scripture on the sidewalk from the New Testament’s book of Galatians.
“By the way,” he noted, “I wasn’t reading Romans 1. I wasn’t reading any passage against homosexuality or anything like that. I was reading a passage from the Bible about love.”
“And I was arrested. No reason. Not given any warning. Not told anything about my amplification being turned down. I was arrested and taken into custody simply for reading the Bible on the sidewalk.”
“We were called a hate group. We were told we just didn’t want to understand the other side,” he continued. “And I just want to set the record straight. I am more than happy to have that conversation with the other side.”
Schroeder said he had several hours of discussions with LGBTQ activists.
“I completely understand the other side. I want to understand the other side,” he said. “But drag queens twerking on kids in lingerie is totally unacceptable. And that’s something we have to notice as a culture.”
“We can have our disagreements, but there comes a time when we have to understand that we are all going to stand before God one day,” Schroeder noted.
“We going to have to give an account of what we have done with the children in our society. The innocent minds and the children who deserve to be protected. Thank you.”
Romans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Romans 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Romans 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served themselves more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Romans 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Romans 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet
Jude I:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Revelations 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
Revelations 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Revelations 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Revelations 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
