    Got to admit that when some of these screechers get wound up, Ive felt the same as the young lady.

    I saw that earlier and laughed so hard my boyfriend came into the room to see what I was watching :) I think my favourite was "Jesus blah blah blah, Jesus blah blah blah!"

    Seems like a setup.

    Yeah, even as an atheist I would never let my kid be so rude to someone on the street. If she didn't want to hear it, she could have just walked away

    OK, I hate street preachers, but that girl is a bit of a brat!

    She certainly isnt going to win over anyone....

    Still I like her courage!

    I guess in fairness, if it was a witness girl who "stood firm for her convictions at school" (or whatever), she would be the next hero in a wt magazine or convention!

    This totally shocked me. The parents should be ashamed of her. To have that little respect for a stranger is prejudice and probably racist. Kate xx

    They are the same race. How would it be racist?

    He is talking "Shit" - so I dont see why parents should be ashamed - its very funny ! The same "thinking" that gave him the "right " to be preaching on the street gave her the right to heckle him .

    Fair enough they are both caucasion. It's just highly discriminatory and prejudice behaviour for a child of this age. Kate xx

    Even if they were not, it would not make anything racist.

    Uh? How? She has more right to tell him to stop shouting IMO vs his right to tell people they are sinners.

    He was being a public nuisance before she arrived. She only shouted at him because he was shouting.

    I remember shouting at a street-preacher in Warrington once. He launched into a loud rant right in my ear as I was walking past so I turned round and shouted back in his face to "shut up". He did.
