UK Pastor Arrested for Speaking Negatively About Islam

 This is certainly how free speech begins to vanish.  The UK has been so overwhelmed with Muslims that they have started to punish anyone who speaks the truth of Jesus Christ because it may be deemed offensive to any Muslims hearing the words.

A 66-year-old U.K. pastor arrested while street preaching in London, said he is facing hate speech-related charges for preaching the Bible and speaking out against Islam.

"It's called inciting religious hatred — which is false," Pastor Steve Maile told Fox News Digital. "The cross of Christ is a message of hope, love, mercy, and reconciliation to a fallen world... How could that be hate?"

Maile is a gospel singer and the senior pastor of Oasis City Church in Watford, England, a town outside London. For 45 years, the New Zealand native has preached and performed mission work globally. He told Fox News Digital that he often performs famous songs with lyrics altered to convey a Christian message.

However, a complaint led to his arrest while he was preaching on a high street in Watford on April 18. According to the Christian Legal Centre, which is supporting Maile's case, he was singing and preaching a gospel message for about 10 minutes when he discussed Islam's history of violence and called on Muslims to be saved by Jesus.

Video footage of the incident, first reported by Britannia Daily, shows Maile being approached and handcuffed behind his back by Hertfordshire Constabulary officers. One officer tells Maile he is being arrested on allegations of assaulting a child.

As he was handcuffed, Maile continued to preach and insisted no crimes had been committed.

"You repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you’ll be saved," he told the officers. "I have not assaulted anyone. Take these off now! Take these off in the name of Jesus."

We have noted for years the fear that Islam has already created in America of saying anything about Muhammad or Islam.  Comedy shows, like Saturday Night Live, have no problem dressing up an actor to represent Jesus and then putting him in a skit for everyone to laugh at.  But do you think they would EVER dress up an actor to represent Muhammad and make fun of his marriage to a 6 yr old girl?  NO WAY!  So it's fine to laugh at Christians but unheard of to make fun of Muhammad?

Yep, that's how it starts.
