A viral video shows a man wearing a “Jesus Saves” T-shirt was ordered by a security guard to remove the clothing or leave the Mall of America.

In the video, the shopper is wearing a neon green T-shirt that reads “Jesus is the only way” on the back while the popular “coexist symbol” is crossed out. A security guard can be heard telling the man, “If you want to shop here you need to take off that shirt.”

The officer claimed the shopper was engaging in “religious soliciting,” which the mall forbids, despite the fact the man didn’t speak to anyone. In the video, the officer says, “Jesus is associated with religion, and it is offending people. People have been offended… You’re walking wearing that shirt in the form of soliciting and we’ve had guests come up and say they’re offended by your shirt.”

The viral video has caused outrage online.
