    Some members of my former church came in. They were all wearing their church shirts. I work at a department store, so they went around and picked out some clothes that they wanted. They then came up to check out. Since I was the only cashier there, I had to check them out.

    I gave the standard greeting of "hello how are you doing". Well, then one of them started telling me that they are holding an intervention for me and that they expect me to show up. They gave me a date and time as well as a place (but I'm clearly not going to go). When I told them that I would not be there, they started to yell at me. Some customers noticed and helped me out. I called my manager, but it took him a couple of minutes to get up there because he was in the back of the store. They left when they saw the manager. I explained to my manager the whole story of how they threw me out and now won't leave me alone. So, I called the cops and put in a report. They really can't do anything, but at least it's been recorded.

    These idiots just won't give up....

    wait what now? are they trying to control you by forcing you to show up now?

    what the actual fuck?

    I'm sorry to hear that man.

    but glad to hear your manager is supportive

    Crazies. Hopeully they won't do anything extreme towards you. :/
     
  5. If they keep following you like this, I think that's considered as stalking so you could call the authorities if you see them again and file for a restraining order.

    Yeah, if they do it again, I'd consider it to be stalking. If it happens again, file a retraining order.

    File a restraining order on them. They'll leave you alone, then.

    My city won't let me do this yet because this is the first time they have harassed me in person like this. I blocked them all on facebook, so I guess this is their new way to harass me. Hopefully, since they got thrown out, they won't come back. If they do come back, I'll call the cops again..

    ... Okay! Looks like they want you to stalk them around and picket them every day, too.
    I suppose they also want you to demand things of them as well? And also to form a gang to go after them? They'd love that, now wouldn't they?

    Wow.... I can't believe anyone in their right mind would think that doing that to anyone is a good idea. I'm going to put this as nicely as I can. They're a bunch of fucking idiots. A line has certainly been crossed. I would definitely call the cops if it happens again and file a restraining order. These bastards need to be taught that they're not above the law just because they're hiding behind some outdated dogma from a fucking book.

    :tantrum:

    *sigh*.... OK, that was exhausting. Be strong, dude. Fuck what they think.

    "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

    Hard to believe I'm quoting that book, but that's another piece of good advice the Bible has that most Christians don't follow.
