Georgia Pastor Donald Crosby Files Federal Lawsuit Over Warner Robins High School Red-Horned "Demon" Mascot

Macon pastor Donald Crosby files federal lawsuit accusing city of Warner Robins of violating his rights when they arrested him for protesting high school's red-horned "demon" mascot because it was "offensive to Christians."

FRIVOLOUS LAWSUIT: Pastor Donald Crosby, who leads God’s Kingdom Builders Church of Jesus Christ in Macon, has filed a federal lawsuit claiming the city of Warner Robins violated his First Amendment rights when he was arrested for protesting Warner Robins High School's red-horned "demon" mascot. According to the AJC, Crosby was locked up in August 2010 after he failed to show officers a permit while protesting the school's mascot. He obtained a permit a few days later, but was arrested again during a second protest at the school, the newspaper said.

Crosby said in the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Macon, that he was shaken by the experience and forced to move out of the central Georgia town for fear of continued harassment. "Maybe I'm completely crazy and I don't know what I'm talking about. Or maybe all of their allegations are true," Crosby said in an interview. "But the fact of the matter is I believe I have the right to be heard."

Crosby and about 25 members of his congregation, God's Kingdom Builders Church of Jesus Christ in Macon, gathered outside the high school on the first day of classes in 2010. Waving "Warner Robins Must Repent" signs, they urged the school to abandon the team's name, which Crosby said was offensive to Christians. Source

Um, yes, completely crazy is right. Another pastor picking a fight over a very insignificant matter. I am sure there are a myriad of social issues Pastor Crosby could tackle, such as high unemployment and foreclosure rates. This is a waste of time for everyone involved.
