Just with his faith and conviction, this Pastor tells the new Gestapo of Canada that their presence isn't welcome
in the House of God. These guys carry weapons, but the Polish clergyman sports an ordnance that lays waste to
whatever the Police wished to invade his place of worship with!

Chalk one up for the little guys.
I have no clue how things work in Canada. Did they back off because they didn't have a legitimate authority? Or their SOP is to simply back off, don't escalate the situation, and try another tact?
Common sense would dictate don't do that during the service. Wrong approach. Catch the pastor on during the week and discuss the matter.
However, if you are simply trying to amplify the intimidation then bust in like they did. Speaks volumes.

I admire the man. It takes a certain amount of testicular fortitude to get past the uniform and tell armed interlopers to get the hell off your lawn while you yourself are unarmed. I particularly liked the way he would not allow the lady cop to say her piece, because he did not care to hear it. The man would not be overrun or overtalked, and there is a certain poetic justice to that!

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’

Cool Pastor!
Guess what? This made me want to enter that church and listen to what he has to say. I have never said a thing like this before in my life.

I admire him too.
You're probably right, but they're all the same to me. If they are trying to enforce government edicts, then they are all government enforcers. Makes no difference to me which agency signs off on their paychecks.
