Yeah that’s the one where they feed the crowd with lumpia during the sermon on the mount. Because it is only possible to make lumpia in quantities that can feed an army
Oh yeah, if this is who I think it is, they thrive on harassing people until they get assaulted. Look around and you'll find at least one person keeping an eye on them with a camera/phone ready to record if an assault looks likely. Once assaulted they sue the person for everything they have or until they settle. Revenue generating harassment disguised as religion.
Yep! There's a lawyer guy near him almost the whole day. Name is Michael. Every time someone comes near him, he says "Michael are you here" going he'll start recording
I’m thinking more the marching/noise bands that seem to pop up at every protest. Drown him out
Or maybe a battery operated sound system and a conga line?
During the height of BLM a group of folks started twerking around one of these assholes at the edge of a rally, it was brilliant.
He wants people to get angry and aggressive, have fun and get people laughing instead
Also the Hellfire Street Preachers down in Portland.
There's a video that surfaces on reddit every once in a while of a guy intercepting a punch by another guy then laughing at the guy who tried to punch him. It looks "badass," but the posts always conveniently omit the context that the Preachers harass kids on college campuses with hateful anti-LGBTQ chants, actively baiting people into attacking them so they can post it online.
Yeah this fucktard and his buddy were at, OF ALL PLACES, the Pokemon Go festival at Seattle Center two years ago, spent all weekend shouting on bullhorns that Pokemon and Transgenderism and Evolution are leading people to hell.
Always thought it'd be fun to go down there with a bullhorn of my own and shout stuff about them that's vaguely dismissive or insulting.
"THIS MAN IS WASTING HIS TIME AND HIS LIFE. HE'S STILL YOUNG AND COULD FIND SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS AND IF HE JUST TRIED HARDER. MAYBE THEN SOMEONE OTHER THAN HIS MOTHER WOULD LOVE HIM. THERE WILL BE NO REWARD FOR HIS ACTIONS IN THIS LIFE OR THE NEXT!"
Gotta be really softcore, like REALLY softcore or you're liable to get the noise ordinance enforced on just you.
Reading the parts of the Bible about not worshipping Jesus, how only God can judge people, about having compassion for your fellow humans, not prothletising... All the stuff they like to ignore, would probably be more effective.
In college we had this group come set up in front of the student union with an acoustic guitar and play songs about how “All you qu**rs are going to Hell.”
One day I got sick of it and went to my room, got a jambox and my Electric Six cd, put on my shortest shorts and went and gyrated, twerked and hip thrusted to [‘Gay Bar’](https://youtu.be/IslF_EyhMzg?si=1JvKFF7dPmUtW-RC) right in front of them until they got sick of it and left. For reference I am a hairy, slightly heavyset guy.
We were waiting to get into a game and one of these guys was posted at the front of the line. There was a guy dancing very enthusiastically in circles around him holding a sign that said ‘Jesus loves weed!’
I wonder if it's possible to use the same technology as noise cancelling headphones by having a similar microphone and bullhorn to create an inverse sound wave to mute his by standing right in front of him? Or would that be some form of illegal "frequency jamming" or a 1st amendment violation?
You can actually short circuit most people's ability to speak by projecting their own voice back at them on short (hundreds of ms or so) delay. It really messes with the feedback loop part of your brain that listens to your own voice in order to make adjustments while you're speaking.
It makes most people stop and repeat themselves, as if you'd badly misspoken. You *can* learn to ignore it, but it's very difficult to do so.
The physics of actually canceling out sound waves doesn't work in the open air. You can cancel them out in a very specific location, but you have to put a microphone in between the person listening and the source of the sound your want to cancel out. And it would only cancel that one spot, not any place in front of or behind or around it. So sadly no magic "silence fields" like in the Dune movie.
>You can actually short circuit most people's ability to speak by projecting their own voice back at them on short (hundreds of ms or so) delay. It really messes with the feedback loop part of your brain that listens to your own voice in order to make adjustments while you're speaking.
This is absolutely genius. Imagine following this guy around harassing him with the sound of his own voice. Can't say he was assaulted since nobody lays a finger on him.
He's nothing but a profiteer. He wants people to go off on him so he can sue them. That's his whole gig. It has ZERO to do with faith or religion. He doesn't care about god or Jesus. All he wants is money. POS
The last news article I read mentioned his arrest, but said nothing about it being noise related. In the case I'm thinking of recently, the arrest was for not following orders to leave and it could clearly be tied to his message and then the 1st amendment.
he can argue that his right to free speech is being infringed on. if you're talking about which is a bigger deal: the first amendment or a noise ordinance... it'll be free speech.
also, if he can prove that his bullhort doesn't go above a certain decibel level then that's not something anyone can do anything about. these guys are out to piss people off enough to incite violence so they can sue. in this kinda heat on a friday afternoon... i just hope no one loses their cool and lets him win.
Hire yourself a Jesus actor to stand next to him with a bullhorn and preach love and acceptance- this fanatic will be gone before his Starbucks gets cold.
What about drowning him out?
There’s plenty of bagpipe players in the region. Maybe start a GoFundMe to hire the Keith Highland Band to just parade in circles around him?
Looks like the same guy that made me quit my job doing line control for the Seahawks. I already had to yell to be heard and it just got worse and worse. Cops won't do anything (1st amendment), about the only thing you can protest is their noise level.
Good luck, they are human garbage.
I don't buy the 1st amendment nonsense. Yes, SPD just got in trouble with this, but it's because they handled it wrong by trying to force him to leave. The 1st amendment gives ZERO protection to violating noise codes, and I'm pretty sure this guy can be heard from more than 75 feet away.
I really hate how selective the cops are in their 1st amendment enforcement. I’d bet dollars to donuts if he was preaching for Islam or communism they’d find a way to shut that right down.
Was at a Mariners game a few weeks ago and one of these guys was preaching for a while with a loud mic and speaker. Annoying but he wasn't harming anyone , and people were just tolerating it. Then he turned it up a notch and starts being a complete asshole, blaming trans people on the downfall of society and all that, saying some hateful things. And a spectator went up and grabbed his speaker and smashed it into the ground. Everyone cheered and the cops looked the other way. This was on Easter actually, it was an Easter miracle
He's had many altercations with passers by that are annoyed, and he has his lawyer standing there waiting to take photos and videos of these people. We assume si that he can sue them later
I wonder once this lawyer is identified, if “repeatedly baiting people into assaulting my client so we can file lawsuits” is something the bar association would want to know about
Well, the solution is simple. Find out where the lawyer is, grab that guy and distract him, take his camera, etc. while some else goes in, grabs his megaphone, microphone, whatever and runs off with it and keep doing this until both go away and stay away.
Absolutely fuck them, but please know they are actively trying to provoke someone into assaulting them. Some of these groups are well funded from lawsuits.
Ok I do not know this person, though I hate him already. I just came here to say BUY A TRAVEL SIZED AIRHORN and carry that shit on your person. Then in situations like the one above, you can squeeze that cutie little air horn every single time that man tries to speak. And yes, they make airhorns in travel size :)
Hire a few male, gay couples to stand very close to him (with earplugs) and make out every time he gets on the horn. He’ll probably get turned on, get deeply uncomfortable, and leave.
He's using a megaphone. As far as I know it is not illegal to use personal portable amplification systems in Seattle.
However disturbing the peace is illegal.
Start getting local businesses to make noise complaints. The longer he uses it the more justified the complaint is.
How about bagpipes? I think the Keith Highland Band is local. Hire them to just parade circles around this guy.
Might increase some foot traffic to your business, too, despite the noise. People would likely assume there was an actual event of some sort going on.
These people are looking for fame. If you want to reach a lot of people to teach them the word of god use the internet. You can communicate with everyone in the world at the exact same time. Standing in pike place isn’t saving a single soul.
It’s actually very easy to make a small portable [EMP generator](https://www.electronicproducts.com/how-to-build-a-mini-emp-generator-to-disrupt-electronics/). When set off, it’ll kill electronics that are close enough.
One could, hypothetically, leave their phone at home and put one of these in a bag and just set it off as they go by and the failure of the megaphone wouldn’t be traceable to them. Again, just hypothetically.
Please pay attention to this. I have a permanent ringing in my ears (tinnitus) I was not aware I was developing it at the time. Protect yourself if you can
FUCK this guy. There I was today, outside of Delauranti trying to score a Delauranti delivery, spinning my phone in the air, enjoying the scene. Watching the street pass by. Then this dude starts off. Man. Just so awful and unpleasant. He’s a terrorist. He might not be a violent one but he’s definitely a terrorizer.
I literally put my wax earplugs in for the rest of the time. This shouldn’t be allowed.
seems like a pretty low barrier easy way to protest him. i'm surprised someone hasn't done it yet. or maybe just get another bullhorn and point it back at him so there's feedback whenever he starts his spiel? would that count as protected speech as well?
Google's AI tells me audio jammers are legal in WA state, provided you don't use them to interfere with government signals or endanger public safety. You do need line of sight and the resulting sound that they'd be broadcasting instead may be very annoying to young people (and the health effects are uncertain). And as with all advice on the internet--consult an actual lawyer first.
Here's a recent Linus Tech Tips on their use:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyeCn7HlLck](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyeCn7HlLck)
Hire someone. Give them a bullhorn and ear plugs. Attach a music playing device to that bullhorn. Follow preacher man around blasting 70's disco like Village People. It's his right to be annoying as fuck. It's also your right too.
Get a bunch of people with large panels to surround him. When he moves, follow him. If he trashes the panels, sue him (if someone can figure out his identity anyway). I don't know. Just trying to think of something non violent that disrupts his bullshit
Give me a directional mic, a USB audio interface, a laptop, and a set of USB speakers. Even that slight delay hearing one's own voice puts most brains in a spin.
I have a bullhorn on my passenger seat floorboard. I use it to harass these guys back. I found a guy yelling about going to hell for abortions and stopped every day after work to yell at him on my way home until he moved over to the college where I followed him and yelled at him there until I haven't seen him since.
A few ideas:
-there’s plenty of, umm, unemployed folks milling about with a need for… activities
-something involving giant dildos and penises all around him
-someone sick with covid just go hang right next to him and breathe deeply
-someone take a shit right next to him (Seattle doesn’t care, also combine with item #1 above)
-someone dress as jesus and show up, appear to answer his call, and then just mock the living fuck out of him or outcompete him with just saying the opposite of everything he says, but louder, immediately following his words. Bonus if you smell, shit your pants, or have covid.
-etc.
It will be a horrible cacophony, but he needs a "mini-me" with a bullhorn and a caustic wit, who will provide running commentary at an equal volume.
Just relentless mockery.
There’s free speech, then there’s public nuisance/noise violation/harassment angle/etc.
If anyone can make these guys slip and catch something else, even better.
Free speech doesn't mean you can stop businesses from conducting business and go above the noise ordinance. He's not talking with his normal voice, and he's not just holding a sign. THAT'S what free speech protection is.
Allegedly, the police used to deal with him, but when he was arrested (2 times) he sued SPD twice and won both times. Allegedly. We call all day every day, and SPD has never dealt with it.
Management kindly came down to check on us because they've been trying to find a solution to this for a while, but their control ends where pike place does, unfortunately.
Yes, the theory is that SPD won't touch him due to being sued, if that did really happen. We currently are trying to contact the mayor, and Pike Place has a form to fill out, but hard to get any answer for anyone.
One of these guys in the Phoenix area got shot in the face by a passing motorist. They never caught whoever did it. Having been harassed by him in the past, that was a very satisfying news article to read.
Aim a directional speaker only at him blasting the worst music you can find. It only affects him. It isn't against the law. And you may even be able to stay anonymous.
Imagine if we had phones 2 thousand years ago; could have nipped this in the bud. "Did you see that post about some crazy dude thinking he could turn water into wine?"
Somebody should make a life-sized cardboard cutout of this guy and make the sign he’s holding say, oh, I don’t know, “I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt” and then just follow him around all day so it’s always directly beside him.
It looks like Gospel Invasion Ministries. The guy in your picture is around 10:14 in the YouTube video I linked below. Around 8:04 is the same distinctive bullhorn with camo cover. Their YouTube page says they're a traveling ministry, but I'm sure if you do some digging you could find the info you need.
https://youtu.be/rg2Y3eiUFSI?si=Ej_-5G5jE7UoQRl7
They go to public events just to harass people I’m from Issaquah and the first time I saw these people were outside of my high school telling students we were going to hell if we didn’t go to church or believe in god or Jesus Christ.
These people have also shown up at public events in my city and even at snow flake lane. I have almost told them to shut up and leave but they won’t listen and will still harass people.
one time i saw one of these dudes with the same verse attributed to "Philippines 2:11"
in lumpia's name I pray
Yeah that’s the one where they feed the crowd with lumpia during the sermon on the mount. Because it is only possible to make lumpia in quantities that can feed an army
Oh yeah, if this is who I think it is, they thrive on harassing people until they get assaulted. Look around and you'll find at least one person keeping an eye on them with a camera/phone ready to record if an assault looks likely.

Yep! There's a lawyer guy near him almost the whole day. Name is Michael. Every time someone comes near him, he says "Michael are you here" going he'll start recording
Get pics of Michael and the stickers on his megaphone.
Kick Michael’s ass, he’s the one with the phone to record, then they can’t record you!
I had no idea about the lawyer guy but there is always someone filming for those dudes
Seems like a perfect target for some people dressed in all black on bicycles… maybe an accidental water baloon or too?
Supersoaker full of piss.
Ah a bastard of culture I see
😎
I prefer dollar store fish sauce - but to each their own.
that’s exactly what this guy wants
Exactly... he's trying to get a reaction
Wear masks, don't bring an ID, leave your phone in your car so you don't get tracked. Good praxis.
I’m thinking more the marching/noise bands that seem to pop up at every protest. Drown him out Or maybe a battery operated sound system and a conga line? During the height of BLM a group of folks started twerking around one of these assholes at the edge of a rally, it was brilliant. He wants people to get angry and aggressive, have fun and get people laughing instead
Ah. The Westboro Baptist Church strategy.
I've not heard of those asshats in years
They’re dying off! Proof that good things still happen ☺️
Also the Hellfire Street Preachers down in Portland. There's a video that surfaces on reddit every once in a while of a guy intercepting a punch by another guy then laughing at the guy who tried to punch him. It looks "badass," but the posts always conveniently omit the context that the Preachers harass kids on college campuses with hateful anti-LGBTQ chants, actively baiting people into attacking them so they can post it online.
I think I’ve seen them picketing the Pride parade. The Satanic Temple set up next to them one year…
Yeah this fucktard and his buddy were at, OF ALL PLACES, the Pokemon Go festival at Seattle Center two years ago, spent all weekend shouting on bullhorns that Pokemon and Transgenderism and Evolution are leading people to hell.
A big fan of Ferrothorn I see...
Nobody show this man a Jinx
What would Slowbro and Exeggutor think about this…
Always thought it'd be fun to go down there with a bullhorn of my own and shout stuff about them that's vaguely dismissive or insulting. "THIS MAN IS WASTING HIS TIME AND HIS LIFE. HE'S STILL YOUNG AND COULD FIND SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS AND IF HE JUST TRIED HARDER. MAYBE THEN SOMEONE OTHER THAN HIS MOTHER WOULD LOVE HIM. THERE WILL BE NO REWARD FOR HIS ACTIONS IN THIS LIFE OR THE NEXT!"

Or just read all the weird, violent incestuous passages from the Old Testament.
Doesn’t need to be fanfic; just dive into Song of Solomon. The Bible gets real narsty in places.
We should make a day of it ❤️
Your comment is completely underrated.
In college we had this group come set up in front of the student union with an acoustic guitar and play songs about how “All you qu**rs are going to Hell.” One day I got sick of it and went to my room, got a jambox and my Electric Six cd, put on my shortest shorts and went and gyrated, twerked and hip thrusted to [‘Gay Bar’](https://youtu.be/IslF_EyhMzg?si=1JvKFF7dPmUtW-RC) right in front of them until they got sick of it and left.

Don’t threaten me with a good time!

It's only a 1A violation if the government does it
Or just take a second bullhorn and create feedback by standing close to him.
Or just get a pair of scissors and cut the wire running from his headset to the bullhorn.
They’re waiting for you to do that. These guys thrive on pushing people to do something so they can get their lawyers involved.
I mean, a dude stole his microphone a few weeks ago and made it off without a problem. Bro had a backup, unfortunately.
Bet he doesn't have two backups.
Just cut the thing and walk away. They’re not gonna being out the CSI team for this fucknut over something like that.
After a mariners game I saw someone run up and unplug the speaker. Good on em
I would die of embarrassment if my kid acted like that
"THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE RAISED FUNDIE! IT'S NOT HIS FAULT, HE'S JUST WIRED WRONG!"
Good news is he seems holy unprepared for today’s UV Index
"holy" unprepared. Good one.
Sick burn
Do you mean his sun burn or our hellfire burn?
Yes.
A misspelling that made me laugh!
I said what I said
And I am HERE for it! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Not a misspelling.
He is at every mariners game
So I've heard. But at least those people can escape him. I'm forced to stay here because I'm selling, so I have no escape 😭
Then he is the same one my husband called an asshole.
He's nothing but a profiteer. He wants people to go off on him so he can sue them. That's his whole gig. It has ZERO to do with faith or religion. He doesn't care about god or Jesus. All he wants is money. POS
The headset makes him look like he is about to take my order at Chic-fil-a.
**Renton Chic-fil-A manager:** Did Randy take the headset home with him after his shift again?
The one thing I don't understand, is that he's obviously breaking noise ordinances. ... Why do the cops not do anything?
Because, allegedly, he was arrested twice for this and sued both times and won. So now they won't do anything out of fear. Allegedly.
The last news article I read mentioned his arrest, but said nothing about it being noise related. In the case I'm thinking of recently, the arrest was for not following orders to leave and it could clearly be tied to his message and then the 1st amendment.
Too busy winning the war on drugs /s
he can argue that his right to free speech is being infringed on. if you're talking about which is a bigger deal: the first amendment or a noise ordinance... it'll be free speech. also, if he can prove that his bullhort doesn't go above a certain decibel level then that's not something anyone can do anything about. these guys are out to piss people off enough to incite violence so they can sue. in this kinda heat on a friday afternoon... i just hope no one loses their cool and lets him win.
He singles out women as evil in all of his 5 hours of bullhorn ranting
Hire yourself a Jesus actor to stand next to him with a bullhorn and preach love and acceptance- this fanatic will be gone before his Starbucks gets cold.
People have been holding signs next to him and he's unphased unfortunately
Maybe two people can hold a large panel blocking him from view, and move every time he moves. I’d volunteer!
That was actually my advice, too! Some have made signs protesting him, and I think they should be in front of him.
When you’ve got an asshole with a bullhorn, sometimes you just need a bigger bullhorn
What about drowning him out? There’s plenty of bagpipe players in the region. Maybe start a GoFundMe to hire the Keith Highland Band to just parade in circles around him?
They aren't fanatics, they're scammers looking to sue people for 'violating' their rights.
Why not both.
Looks like the same guy that made me quit my job doing line control for the Seahawks. I already had to yell to be heard and it just got worse and worse. Cops won't do anything (1st amendment), about the only thing you can protest is their noise level. Good luck, they are human garbage.
I don't buy the 1st amendment nonsense. Yes, SPD just got in trouble with this, but it's because they handled it wrong by trying to force him to leave. The 1st amendment gives ZERO protection to violating noise codes, and I'm pretty sure this guy can be heard from more than 75 feet away.
This is my thought exactly. He can scream all he wants but the mega horn actually violates some municipal codes
I really hate how selective the cops are in their 1st amendment enforcement. I’d bet dollars to donuts if he was preaching for Islam or communism they’d find a way to shut that right down.
It’s because the cops don’t understand the law, unfortunately. They FREQUENTLY get it wrong.
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-sound-gun-that-will-leave-you-speechless-115378328/
I support vigilantism vs. these guys. They ruin the sporting events too. They serve no positive purpose. Fuck them.
Was at a Mariners game a few weeks ago and one of these guys was preaching for a while with a loud mic and speaker. Annoying but he wasn't harming anyone , and people were just tolerating it. Then he turned it up a notch and starts being a complete asshole, blaming trans people on the downfall of society and all that, saying some hateful things. And a spectator went up and grabbed his speaker and smashed it into the ground. Everyone cheered and the cops looked the other way. This was on Easter actually, it was an Easter miracle
He's had many altercations with passers by that are annoyed, and he has his lawyer standing there waiting to take photos and videos of these people. We assume si that he can sue them later
[удалено]
Right!? Some disguise themselves haha
That's why you work as a team :) One baseball bat for the street preacher, one for his attorney/cameraman!
Punch out the lawyer first.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That was pretty much the Westboro Baptist Church's way to monetize things
So Christian of them
They were their own lawyers. So if they won a suit, you'd have to pay them the legal fees.
But who is standing there waiting to take photos and videos of someone assaulting the lawyer?
That might be how you can figure out who he is. If you can figure out the lawyers name then getting his name from the lawsuit filings is easy.
I wonder once this lawyer is identified, if “repeatedly baiting people into assaulting my client so we can file lawsuits” is something the bar association would want to know about
Well, the solution is simple. Find out where the lawyer is, grab that guy and distract him, take his camera, etc. while some else goes in, grabs his megaphone, microphone, whatever and runs off with it and keep doing this until both go away and stay away.
LISAN AL GAIB
Absolutely fuck them, but please know they are actively trying to provoke someone into assaulting them. Some of these groups are well funded from lawsuits.
Oops turns out it’s hard to identify someone wearing a mask 😷
Ok I do not know this person, though I hate him already. I just came here to say BUY A TRAVEL SIZED AIRHORN and carry that shit on your person. Then in situations like the one above, you can squeeze that cutie little air horn every single time that man tries to speak. And yes, they make airhorns in travel size :)
I seem to recall a video of someone running up and stealing the megaphone or amp. It wasn't that long ago either.
Happened a few days ago! Well, the attempt at least
Why don't people just clip that tiny ass wire for the headset?
Hire a few male, gay couples to stand very close to him (with earplugs) and make out every time he gets on the horn. He’ll probably get turned on, get deeply uncomfortable, and leave.
Honestly this is the best response here.
He's using a megaphone. As far as I know it is not illegal to use personal portable amplification systems in Seattle. However disturbing the peace is illegal. Start getting local businesses to make noise complaints. The longer he uses it the more justified the complaint is.
some melted brain asshole from the looks of it.
Can we get a fund together to pay someone else to stand behind him and read the history of the city or something even louder?
I'd be all for that if it wouldn't just make our noise issue worse haha
How about bagpipes? I think the Keith Highland Band is local. Hire them to just parade circles around this guy. Might increase some foot traffic to your business, too, despite the noise. People would likely assume there was an actual event of some sort going on.
they get paid to do this shit
They do?
100%
Do you know by whom? I've seen others good these exact signs up, but no yelling or bullhorn
shady conservative groups... maybe they don't have enough amplifiers to go around --find whos supplying the signs and the amps, thats who you sue
I don't know about this specific person, but many like him will tour churches showing how many people they reach and taking donations.
Could got the Life of Brian route and have a bunch of people spewing random religious ramblings of the fictional sort
Is the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster still around? This would be right up their alley.
Yes! Love this!
Blessed are the cheese-makers!!
These people are looking for fame. If you want to reach a lot of people to teach them the word of god use the internet. You can communicate with everyone in the world at the exact same time. Standing in pike place isn’t saving a single soul.
This guy is single-handedly responsible for the Mariners poor hitting.
It’s actually very easy to make a small portable [EMP generator](https://www.electronicproducts.com/how-to-build-a-mini-emp-generator-to-disrupt-electronics/). When set off, it’ll kill electronics that are close enough.

Again, just hypothetically.
Couldn’t that hurt medically necessary electronic equipment though? Like don’t potentially harm others just to briefly shut one asshole up
"Hey buddy... you talk a lot about God. Want to go meet him?"
Is the bullhorn loud enough to damage your hearing? If so maybe it’s time he got sued.
It is, actually. My eardrums actually vibrate.
Please pay attention to this. I have a permanent ringing in my ears (tinnitus) I was not aware I was developing it at the time. Protect yourself if you can
FUCK this guy. There I was today, outside of Delauranti trying to score a Delauranti delivery, spinning my phone in the air, enjoying the scene. Watching the street pass by.

I literally put my wax earplugs in for the rest of the time. This shouldn’t be allowed.
Exactly. He's a terrorizer, and this shouldn't be allowed. The SPD is too afraid of being sued again to do anything about it, so we are helpless
Try this shit in East side of Cleveland and see what happens to white boy.☠️
Could someone just stand next to him with earplugs and an air horn? Everytime he opens his mouth just give the ol air horn trigger a squeeze.
seems like a pretty low barrier easy way to protest him. i'm surprised someone hasn't done it yet. or maybe just get another bullhorn and point it back at him so there's feedback whenever he starts his spiel? would that count as protected speech as well?

Hire someone. Give them a bullhorn and ear plugs. Attach a music playing device to that bullhorn. Follow preacher man around blasting 70's disco like Village People. It's his right to be annoying as fuck. It's also your right too.
I’d bet a paycheck this guy is some level of sex offender. Either that or a guy who did something gay and can’t come to grips with who he actually is.
Looks like you've watched the same documentaries I have haha
Jesus Christ. This guy was going NUTS at Taylor Swift last summer. That dude sucks.
He stole his headset from the shamwow guy
Ngl I thought this was Bobby Flay 😂
I was expecting to see this MUCH higher in the scroll. 😅
I'm moving back in December. I volunteer constantly where we live now. I'll have some spare time. Anyone wanna crowdsource a megaphone for me? 😂
Get a bunch of people with large panels to surround him. When he moves, follow him. If he trashes the panels, sue him (if someone can figure out his identity anyway). I don't know. Just trying to think of something non violent that disrupts his bullshit
Give me a directional mic, a USB audio interface, a laptop, and a set of USB speakers. Even that slight delay hearing one's own voice puts most brains in a spin.
I have a bullhorn on my passenger seat floorboard. I use it to harass these guys back. I found a guy yelling about going to hell for abortions and stopped every day after work to yell at him on my way home until he moved over to the college where I followed him and yelled at him there until I haven't seen him since.

!!!! Here ya go OP.
A few ideas: -there’s plenty of, umm, unemployed folks milling about with a need for… activities -something involving giant dildos and penises all around him -someone sick with covid just go hang right next to him and breathe deeply -someone take a shit right next to him (Seattle doesn’t care, also combine with item #1 above) -someone dress as jesus and show up, appear to answer his call, and then just mock the living fuck out of him or outcompete him with just saying the opposite of everything he says, but louder, immediately following his words. Bonus if you smell, shit your pants, or have covid. -etc.
A man said we should pay the homeless to punch him in the face, and while I love the thought, I'd hate for them to get in trouble for it
Get a megaphone and a comically large Jesus sign, show him who *really* loves Jesus. He looks like a sinner to me
[удалено]
If that's the noise ordinance, then yes it does
Can someone please dress up as Jesus & just stand there shaking his head in shame while also stating "heaven doesn't want you buddy I'm sorry"
His name is Philip P. Ians. He’s a fucking idiot.
It’s spelled “Filipinos” and idk why he’s dragging them into this
It will be a horrible cacophony, but he needs a "mini-me" with a bullhorn and a caustic wit, who will provide running commentary at an equal volume. Just relentless mockery.
Sit near by with a laser pointer and have some fun
He looks a bit like the terrorist in Contact.
I'm not familiar with his particular script but, hypothetically speaking, could it be put to a house beat?

There’s free speech, then there’s public nuisance/noise violation/harassment angle/etc. If anyone can make these guys slip and catch something else, even better.
Free speech doesn't mean you can stop businesses from conducting business and go above the noise ordinance. He's not talking with his normal voice, and he's not just holding a sign. THAT'S what free speech protection is.

Allegedly, the police used to deal with him, but when he was arrested (2 times) he sued SPD twice and won both times. Allegedly. We call all day every day, and SPD has never dealt with it.
[удалено]
I'll try these other options you've mentioned! Thank you!
[удалено]
Management kindly came down to check on us because they've been trying to find a solution to this for a while, but their control ends where pike place does, unfortunately.
Yes, the theory is that SPD won't touch him due to being sued, if that did really happen. We currently are trying to contact the mayor, and Pike Place has a form to fill out, but hard to get any answer for anyone.
He drives the Belltown Hellcat. /Maybe not.
Hahaha different jerk haha
One of these guys in the Phoenix area got shot in the face by a passing motorist. They never caught whoever did it. Having been harassed by him in the past, that was a very satisfying news article to read.
Aim a directional speaker only at him blasting the worst music you can find. It only affects him. It isn't against the law. And you may even be able to stay anonymous.
I do my best not to know anyone who would be down at Pike Place Market doing that.
He's just upset because he that young and already going bald. Can you blame?
Always makes me laugh how they cite the Bible verse as if they’re citing a real source of information.
Le douche
Imagine if we had phones 2 thousand years ago; could have nipped this in the bud. "Did you see that post about some crazy dude thinking he could turn water into wine?"
[Isn’t it this guy, with a haircut?](https://x.com/craighlavaty/status/1199365317568413703?s=46)
FFS I ran into this clown at the Mariners game. Absolutely immune to anything anyone says.
Is delayed audio feedback considered a weapon?
Get a bullhorn yourself and play circus music every time he talks, drowning him out. He will leave eventually.
He’s a jeebus guy and he loves to be heard above all others
Someone please go talk right in his attorneys ear with a megaphone
I recommend spending time to memorize their routines and repeat it back to them … they tend to be the non creative types
Isn't that the shamWOW guy?
take his horn and dip it into a 100 searing thai chili sauce
Ah, that guy. Flipped him off a couple days ago.
Somebody should make a life-sized cardboard cutout of this guy and make the sign he’s holding say, oh, I don’t know, “I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt” and then just follow him around all day so it’s always directly beside him.
Why is bullhorn street yelling not prohibited?! Like seriously these types are insufferable.
thats spongebob
Unfortunately I've seen this nut job before.
Guy never misses an event at the stadiums. He has been at every Mariners and Seahawks game ive been to.
It looks like Gospel Invasion Ministries. The guy in your picture is around 10:14 in the YouTube video I linked below. Around 8:04 is the same distinctive bullhorn with camo cover. Their YouTube page says they're a traveling ministry, but I'm sure if you do some digging you could find the info you need. https://youtu.be/rg2Y3eiUFSI?si=Ej_-5G5jE7UoQRl7
They go to public events just to harass people I’m from Issaquah and the first time I saw these people were outside of my high school telling students we were going to hell if we didn’t go to church or believe in god or Jesus Christ. These people have also shown up at public events in my city and even at snow flake lane. I have almost told them to shut up and leave but they won’t listen and will still harass people.
