Message Preachers Charged In London
May 27, 2019
Message Preachers Charged in London:
The two are well known on London's streets, particularly downtown, for preaching, often using an amplified loudspeaker and wearing sandwich board-style signs with biblical messages. They often yell at women, calling them "whores" and questioning their attire. There were 75 complaints about the two men in the first three months of 2019, and city councillors amended a public nuisance bylaw to address "unnecessary interference with the use and enjoyment of public space" as a result of abusive or insulting language.
