Rocky River denying freedom
August 26, 2008

ROCKY RIVER, OH - A Rocky River police officer failed to do his job yesterday at 7:40 p.m.
at the corner of Wagar and Hilliard where people were showing graphic pictures of
aborted babies to the public.
“He (the police officer) told us we were on city property and that we were not allowed
here,” Fred Sokol said, Rocky River resident and former candidate for mayor. “He drove
right up on the curb over the grass; he said the police chief sent him.”
Rocky River is a Republican-run, city-services happy (let’s be honest, it’s called
communism), insecure city located about 15 minutes west of Cleveland just off Lake
Erie. Few are aware there is a Planned Parenthood down the road on Center Ridge
across the street from the new Chick-Fil-A. The city council and mayor actually made it
easier for parents to murder their children by passing a law less than ten years ago.
Mr. Sokol was accompanied by two other people with signs when the officer took away
their rights. Mr. Sokol first notified the law director of his desire to peacefully show signs
on the sidewalks more than a month ago and has been walking the sidewalks since he
made the law director aware of his peaceful intentions.
I have been there on many occasions. Someone set the police department up to this. I
have campaigned with elected officials of Rocky River before I learned of their lies. Trust
me. I know how they operate. They are deceitful in many ways.
Rocky River was the center of attention for a jail to be built in the 90’s and also
supported unconstitutional laws of making it illegal to walk on someone else’s lawn or
city property, whereby it could have been a criminal offense.
I pray that Jesus Christ break the bows of the evildoers of Rocky River (they know who
they are) and even give personal protection to those who want to peacefully show signs
on public property, which is exactly what the police force is supposed to do. In Christ’s
name, these police officers should either resign or uphold that Constitution under
which they swore. It’s the rights of the people of Rocky River they are to protect, not
prevent.
If communist acts like this are not addressed immediately, then what’s next? And I do
not want to hear the excuse of, “Well, he told me to do it.” Anyone involved is
responsible.
I have preached a very offensive gospel – the love of Jesus Christ – in some crazy and
messed up areas: corner of E. 55th and Woodland, the projects near Tremont,
Cleveland State University area in the dark, Warehouse District, Public Square and
witnessed shootings, the Flats when it was popular, and many other places. Never
once was I harmed. Never once did anyone throw beer, water, or soda at me or anyone
around me. But in Rocky River, I have had water and soda thrown at me at that corner
while holding a sign. My son (9 months old at the time) even got some water.
In fact, that city (Cleveland) recently dismissed a criminal case against me, whereby I
was charged with disorderly conduct for preaching the gospel on a public sidewalk. We
are cool now. And for the record, the Cleveland Indians have won every game since my
case was dismissed; the playoff run is looking very good right now.
Rocky River is a very dark and cursed city. The death needs to stop. Freedom needs to
be encouraged.
“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not themselves; and under a just God,
cannot long retain it.” – Abraham Lincoln
