Even without public transit, it’s still very common here in the states. There’s a handful of street preachers in my city that stand on step ladders at busy intersections with megaphones to preach to people stuck in traffic at rush hour
There’s a guy in my town (in the UK) who sometimes stands outside a supermarket near me with a loudspeaker, preaching his gospels, and honestly, I keep wanting to tell him to fuck off.
Why does he think he has the right to amplify himself, to preach hellfire and brimstone at people who are just trying to go about their days. If he just shouted, then fine, whatever, it’s a free world. But to use amplification is just cunty.
Couldn’t agree more. The imposition and force is what really gets me about these guys. I was raised in the burgeoning evangelical.movement, at what was (on paper) a southern baptist church so these douches aren’t saying anything I haven’t heard before, but my former church members at least had the sense to keep it to themselves

do it.
bad behaviour doesn’t stop if nobody takes action against it
We need to go back to tar-and-feathering people.
Perhaps street lynching isn’t the solution?

Would be a shame, if someone accidentally flipped the stepladder.
