"Brother Mike" on UC Campus

This guys, "Brother Mike," preaches blasphemy on UC's campus, and has been for the past week or so. He's surrounded by police-issued caution tape to keep from getting his ass beat. Today was the only day I actually chose to watch, because I'd already heard enough about how he does this for attention, or how he just says shit to rile people up until they fight him, and then he sues the college (haha). 

Standing in a long sleeve button up with spandex and beige slacks, with some sort of CamelBak-like backpack, he also carries his Bible and a gallon of water. He preaches of quotes from the Bible, and entertained but slightly enraged college students shout things at him to make him as upset as he's made them. If anything, I'm crossing my fingers that no one takes him the slightest bit seriously, because he preaches against premarital sex, homosexuality, and a plethora of other things that are just illogical to insult. 

"Women can't find an income because they're too busy giving it out for free," was one of a series of insulting lines that I heard from this guy.
At another point, someone shouted about his hypocrisy, and for the life of me all I wanted to do was argue with him one on one. "Brother Mike" leaps to the edge of the caution tapes, nearly offended, and points his finger so furiously at this kid and says, "You know what i think!? I think you're a FORNICATOR!! I think you partake in premarital sex, which is a SIN."

But I rolled my eyes, turned the other cheek, and took comfort in his counter-productivity. If there is a God, I'm willing to bet that isn't the way She would've wanted him to promote activism. Once again, WWJD does NOT apply here...

Woman lets daughter die by praying instead of calling 911

That's just ridiculously disgusting. The girl dies from untreated diabetes. "She could have been saved with basic medical treatment: fluid and insulin." 

Absolutely disgusting.
