Can One Be Arrested For Yelling Liar In a Church

CAN ONE BE ARRESTED FOR YELLING LIAR IN A CHURCH? You pious people in your pews All you reading about the arrival of some wondrously good news A new horizon can’t you see? Well imagine you were with my wife, infant child and me We three had left together but suddenly there were four And I’m not certain about much more Four in the quietude of dripping rain No one letting go of the pinching pain because only the rain deserves such disdain We picked up a hitchhiker as into rough waters we’d wade And the gentleman told us to please call him ‘Suade’ And called this a “storm by madness made” And then he made us walk blindly through the wood Until he told us to stay precisely where we stood in the wilderness it is a mean and uncertain gamble As you amble through the briars and the brambles You need to possess a lot of fortitude Because the icy winds are oftentimes too rude Suddenly Suede swung and that’s when my hope and strength were to fade He rose up like an oak in a forest of fear and I opposing Suade A madman, a maniac, a massacre made And in that infinitesimal and infinite second, although I am a pacifist, I could have killed Suede Then suddenly the fighting was done As Suede screamed orders I just wanted us all to run And doth did both men huddle close to his opponent While adding Suede’s scent akin to camel dung to the troubles of his component There were three of us and he was only one But the one who wields the power is the one who wields a gun His mind was set on our flower of a daughter whom he decided to pluck Now let’s all go out and find her,yeah, lots of luck Suddenly he just stole our baby away I begged him to let our baby stay Away I say, and gone perhaps for ever and good Hidden n a new area, in a brand new neighborhood All we wanted to do was give a ride and fill a need to help the needy But some men are seedy and too many of them are greedy His scowl was darkness, his blackish eyes seemed way too dim And that’s virtually all we can remember of him While the police find not the culprit in a world of the gross and the grim While most of us believed us finding her were slim My wife and I were defenseless and both our hearts were horrendously hurt Oh, and we were only the second parents to use what we now named an “Amber Alert” © 2011.….
