Coward puncher did it because Jesus - Australia

Coward puncher because Jesus

More love from the christians.....   No turning the other cheek here. Apparently Jesus needs defending?

So a young bloke walks past a street preacher and tells him to fuck off or whatever. Evidently "Fuck Jesus" was heard at one point. In normal circumstances nobody would have cared less, I mean those street preachers can be pretty nasty pieces of work and IMO deserve to cop a serve or two back.

Enter some other young blokes, who are devote Catholics. One of them proceeds to flatten the guy who abused the preacher with two coward punches. How very christian of him.

The magistrate wasn't having any of this excuse about Jesus and all and sentenced him to jail time. Religious violence isn't tolerated here.

During yesterday's sentencing hearing, El-Nacher's lawyer said his client punched Mr Kelly due to an argument over religion. 

Defence barrister Jason Jacobson argued that his client is a devout Catholic and "very inflammatory" comments had triggered the assault. 

Responding to a Christian preacher in the mall, one of Mr Kelly's friends allegedly shouted 'F--- Jesus', "in a loud way." 

“It was totally uncalled for," Mr Jacobson said. 

"There was nothing Christian in the way he responded"... Magistrate Catherine Pirie told the court. 

She labelled it "gratuitous violence" and "very disturbing". 

Another man is due to front court next month over allegations he spat on and punched Mr Kelly while he lay unconscious. ninemsn
