Arrested for Street Preaching

Our church has been preaching on the streets since Autumn of 1991. Our ministry has involved handing out tracts on the street, holding scripture signs, and, of course, preaching. Besides the usual heckling and obscene gestures, we had virtually no trouble from anyone - until June of 1996.
What changed?
To put it simply, two things changed: the content of our signs, and the location where we hold them.
First, we changed the content of our signs. Instead of just having signs that said, "Jesus saves" and such (which are all very good), we added some new signs. They were these:

* If you died TODAY, would you be in heaven or hell?
* How can ye escape the damnation of Hell? (Matt 23:33) Repent ye, and believe the gospel! (Mark 1:15)
* Homosexuality is abomination according to God's Word.
* Three gay rights: AIDS, Hell, or salvation
* If a man lie with a man as with a woman, both have committed abomination.
* Is your sin really worth going to hell over?
* Pro-choice = dead babies
* Murder is not a choice.
