Report

No one has any right to walk into a place of worship and destroy property. I don't care what religion it is or what church. Or home or other property as well. I also agree that people should not be allowed to enter a property based on their religious beliefs.
But let me pass on a true story that I am aware of. Also understand that I am NOT a part of this religious group.
Several years ago this religious group held a large meeting at Yankee Stadium. The place was packed with Jehovah Witnesses. I happened to know a few of the police officers who were working there at the time. You know what they told me ? "It was the First Time that Yankee Stadium was completely full and there was NOT any need for even ONE NYC Police Officer to be there". TRUE STORY. No incidents occurred the entire time that group was there. Hasn't been the same since.
