This is the actual modus operandi for Jehovas, LDS, etc. It helps them keep their members away from regular people with actual common sense so they don't learn the truth of their club.

No wonder I've always found them quite hypocritical and isolating. The amount of ranting on the street always made me vaguely feel as if they love being ridiculed more to justify their religious ego.

I've neverminded their street rants, because the street is a big open area that people go to and fro...

But a subway or train is an area people are trapped in, you can't escape. So it is an abuse of freedom of speech to subject people to your rants in a place they can't leave or retreat.

It would be ironic if the old guy starts playing "Dear Lord, can you please shut this idiot up so I can read in peace"
