PRAYERS PLEASE

First draft 

Assaulted Robbed and Arrested

John 10:10 New King James Version
"10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

Here are some of the headlines.. the first article is from city News 11:30 

"Dorre Love, who was arrested in connection with a violent confrontation in the West End, is speaking out. He claims he was assaulted first when a Vancouver man, Justin Morissette, grabbed his microphone while Love was preaching. Morissette says two people were spreading homophobic rhetoric in the West End and that he wanted them to stop. (Screenshot: YouTube/Dorre Love)"

"The man accused of attacking Sportsnet 650’s Justin Morissette, who was attempting to stop him from spreading homophobic messages, has taken to YouTube to share his side of the story, claiming he was “assaulted” first when Morissette tried to take his microphone away Saturday night." 

"Morissette said he grabbed the microphone and refused to give it back. It was following this that he said a man “wrenched my leg against his until my tibia and fibula snapped, broke and my knee dislocated." 

These articles are extensive and one can read it themselves. Links below. Unfortunately it happened. That concludes the articles with city News 11:30 above.

Now from another article headline..

"After altercation involving Antie gay preacher lawyer urges better enforcement of noise rules." CBC

It has also been reported in the same article by CBC that the police say there have been multiple incidents with these street preachers in Vancouver's West End. You know something, people complain on street preachers period. Different street preachers have different methods and some are very effective at preaching the gospel. But some people are worldly and despise being told that they need to obey the God of the Bible. They despise being told that they are sinful and they will be judged which is true. But there are other people that accept the message with caution and gladness. Jesus Christ said I send you out among-st wolves. 

And in one of the articles it was written..

"Police have recommended charges of aggravated assault and mischief against two men accused of preaching anti-gay messages, after a man who asked them to stop was assaulted." CBC

Furthermore the CBC article went on to say. "Dan Snyder, a lawyer who lives in the neighbourhood, says the preachers are sending an "unsettling" message in the neighbourhood known for a thriving LGBTQ community and because the volume is so loud, thanks to their use of amplifiers, the message is unavoidable." 

"People I know, blocks away, could hear this for hours. And this happens regularly on weekends," Snyder said. 

"People in their houses can hear these street preachers go on for hours and that is what's disrupting the community." 

Now as far as the CBC article goes it does tell us that a permit is required for an amplifier in Vancouver. "Sgt. Aaron Roed, a spokesperson for the Vancouver Police Department, said public use of an amplifier in Vancouver requires a permit, but officers have discretion." 

There are a lot of accusations being made and who knows what is true and what is not. Charges were laid. We haven't seen the video with the evidence because the police have taken away the video/phone/gear that the preacher/Dorre had that day. Not sure if it would be posted at some point in time/date. 

Now below is my originally notes in preparation for this blog. I don't do this for credit myself but to let other Christians know/people what has occurred as to draw support / prayers for all parties. 

There is a street preacher Dorre Love who was arrested in Vancouver BC as a man attacked him, took/grabbed his microphone out of his hands and it is alleged he ran off with it. The fellow who ran off with it made an allegation that Dorre Love attacked him.  Apparently somehow he broke his leg and now he requires a metal plate for life as reported. This fellow was huge according to Mr. Love and went in the hospital as reported. There are news reports about such and they have included another street preacher from Toronto named David Lynn who was arrested and released perhaps a year ago. David's charges were dropped. He/David had nothing to do with this incident. They are saying these street preachers spread hate speech which is not true. That seems unfounded. It may be a matter of opinion but they preach the gospel of the lord Jesus Christ. According to Mr. Dorre Love the police confiscated his preaching gear such as his amplifier, his little booth, and his phone, speakers and possibly some other items. To date we have not seen the video that should show some evidence. But Dorre has created a couple of updated videos about the incident/relate on his You-tube page. One is posted above.

Anyways, posted are links to some of the articles below. Now the Street preacher was charged with various crimes as I read. I had a quick pass through one or two of the articles which says that such street preacher were warned in the past but little was done about it as people complained. May have been four or five times in the past that they were cautioned by the police. As the police must have gotten complaints from the community. 

 

Continuing.. 

Apparently they/people complained because the amplifier was loud and people did not want to hear the preaching which they call hate speech towards the gay and lesbian communities. (The LGBT community.) Having some understanding about music and amplifiers including microphones it is true that amplifiers could be loud. But some smaller amplifiers will get drowned out by the traffic and the outdoor noises/distance Not sure about the sound bouncing off buildings. Depending on the size of the woofer which would make a big difference including the wattage of the amplifier. For instance a 12-in speaker is not going to be as loud as a 15-in speaker or woofer. Then you have to look at the volume loudness that a preacher would set the amplifier at. I mean I've reviewed/seen street preachers videos getting arrested and many times they were exonerated as a bunch of lies were told about them. Sometimes it was unfortunate and they do have a right to freedom of speech. The good thing is that sometimes they do have video evidence and other people there with them to vouch for them. I believe that Street preachers needs a permit in Vancouver and most likely in other parts of Canada. 

As a Christian believer in Christ I ask for prayers for these street preachers as Christ clearly said that he sends them out among-st wolves. Please pray for all parties. I am sure Dorre would appreciate support as well. You could donate financial to help him out. He does the lords work. I am told/reading somewhere that Mr. Morissette had funds raised for him by some fund that drew more than it was expected.

Now in the CBC article there is data/information concerning freedom of speech and such things? They also say "Even if we disagree with what is being said, and in this case, it is disgusting and intolerable." 

That is not a pleasant remark. It depends what the message of the Gospel is. It is not one of disgusting and in-toleration. It is a message of the justice of God along with the love of sending his only begotten son to earth to be the lamb that takes away the sins of the world. What these LGBT community people that are gay or lesbians are doing is an abomination to God. That is the God of the bible/God of Israel. God tells us in his word that such sins leads to hell/judgement and that they should be forewarned. They could either accept the message or face God's coming wrath. The word of God says that he/the lord avenges those whom are persecuted for his cause and he brings judgment against those who refuse the message of repentance. In essence the street preachers are preaching the message of the coming Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ. The totalitarian message of the Gospel is one of love. But it is not a carnal love as God created them male and female in the beginning. As I say what they are doing/LGBT is an abomination to God and it is extremely sinful. So when they see street preachers preaching that such things are sin and actually filth to God of course they're going to be rebellious. Perhaps not all of them but people are people. They've created their own communities that are in disagreement and disobedient to their own maker. All that Christian’s preachers can do is preach the gospel. Many times the street preachers tell such people that are gay or lesbians that they love them. Just before the Lord Jesus Christ drew his last breath on the cross he said "father forgive them for they know not what they do." Nailed to a cross he/Christ still had love for people that hated him and many yelled persecute him. He died for the sins of the world and as it is written he loved us first. There is no greater love than a man laying down his life for others. That is what is written.  

Back to the CBC article.. 

"Roed said the men did not have a permit for their amplifier and a possible noise infraction could be part of the investigation." No charges for noise appear to be laid prior.

"Dorre Love, in a YouTube video, said he was one of the preachers involved in Saturday's confrontation." 

"I was assaulted," Love said in the video. "A gentleman took my mic out of my hands and tried to get away with it." 

 

In conclusion..

So Dorre Love the street preacher says that he was attacked and his microphone was pulled out of his hands which is assault. The other fella Justin Morissette says that he was attacked. Arrest/(s) were made. And now you have a street preacher facing charges and he is forbidden or should I say restricted from preaching in parts of Vancouver. He doesn't have his equipment and that is his job which is his bread and butter. The other fella has injuries which is unfortunate as well. It would be nice if we could see the video of that day which would show the alleged assault.

 

In the meanwhile I would ask for prayers for both men and for all involved including the mayor and the police/Justine Trudeau as well. It has been reported that Justin Trudeau came out with a message of comfort for the fella Justine who broke his leg. Dorre may have felt hurt by such but said he loves Mr. Trudeau. Reason being is he holds that he is innocent and being falsely accused and the other person is playing the victim. 

 

This is unfortunate and why don't people walk away when they don't agree and not take things into their own hands. Grabbing a microphone out of someone’s hands is assault. It is wrong. Making a complaint is proper but not always justified. I have heard in another video Mr. Love be cooperative and turn down the amplifier. I am sorry to have heard about this.  May this be resolved well for all parties?
