With all the crime in this country, one would think the police would have better things to do than to send a full squad to arrest a street preacher.
That, however, is what happened in Orlando, FL, as about a dozen officers showed up to arrest a preacher that was doing his thing outside of a pro-abortion rally.
This was a horrible display by our men and women in blue, to say the least.
Not a Good Luck
The video starts with a couple of officers approaching the preacher, asking him if he has his permits.
He does appear to have them, so I am not really sure what the issue was here, as he clearly was not bothering anyone.
Regardless, the man was surrounded by half a dozen officers, while other officers separated his wife from him.
You eventually see the preacher put on his knees, arrested, and taken away, all the while police are surrounding his wife and blocking her view.
The video was posted by Laura Loomer, an avid Trump supporter, so I also want to address that little dig she offered at the end…
WATCH: A street preacher has been arrested in Orlando, FL for preaching outside of a pro-abortion rally.
Florida had over 82,000 documented abortions last yr alone, which makes it one of the top 5 states in the nation for abortions.

I am not sticking up for Trump or DeSantis here, but I want to offer some context to her tweet.
So, yes, Florida is among the top 5 in abortions, but it also a top 5 state in terms of population, so that is to be expected.
California has almost double the number of abortions as Florida, with Texas, yes, I said Texas, New York, Illinois, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Georgia rounding out the top eight in the country.
Up until Roe v. Wade was overturned, abortion totals were fairly representative of the population of states and as you can see, half of the states in the top eight are red states, so her comment is a bit unfair as a critique of DeSantis.
I would also note that Orlando itself is a city run by a Democrat, Buddy Dyer, who has been in office since 2003, so that explains the aggressiveness of the police in ensuring the preacher did not disturb the abortion advocates.
