They\u2019re acting just like the Communists were acting when I was growing up when the pastors and the priests were arrested, and some were murdered. Many were tortured.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why I say what I say,\u201d Pawlowski explained. \u201cBecause I see a repetition of history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The pastor said that the officials walked into the Calgary church \u201cin the middle of worship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI asked them to get out, and they would not move,\u201d he detailed to The Daily Caller. \u201cSo everything started to intensify. And I raised my voice, and I said it again and again and again, and they just didn\u2019t want to go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pawlowski said the continued harassment of him and his churchgoers is \u201cunacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven during the times of the Middle Ages, the knights were commanded to leave their swords outside the church, they were not allowed to enter the church. But these days, nothing is holy for those people. They just walk in like it\u2019s a restaurant,\u201d he said, noting police were armed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happened on Saturday is just the tipping point of the harassment and intimidation I have been enduring for months,\u201d the Christian added.<\/p>\n<p>The silver lining is that Pawlowski has been met with an outpouring of support and hopes the now-viral video will inspire other religious leaders to stand up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI simply say, enough,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I want \u2013 I hope \u2013 that this video that so many people are talking about will give courage to other clergymen and other business owners to kick those Nazis out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom my point of view, I\u2019m not afraid of the disease,\u201d the pastor said of COVID-19. \u201cBecause my God is bigger, and I pray for the people that are still sick and that they recover. I don\u2019t live a life of fear, because I have hope.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Calgary Police released a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CalgaryPolice\/status\/1378796097070452738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">statement<\/a>&nbsp;Sunday concerning the incident, confirming the drop-by was due to COVID-19 restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe concern was that the people in attendance were not adhering to the government\u2019s COVID-19 public health orders, which are in place to ensure everyone\u2019s safety,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe organizer of the gathering was uncooperative with the health inspector, and repeatedly raised his voice asking all parties to leave the premises, which they did approximately one minute after entry and in a peaceful manner,\u201d Calgary Police continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe understand the pandemic has caused great disruption to all Calgarians in their professional and personal lives. We do not wish to disrupt anyone\u2019s holidays or religious or spiritual events, however we must support our partner agencies when called upon to help ensure everyone can safely celebrate these occasions,\u201d the statement added. \u201cNo tickets were issued at the time and it will be up to our partner agencies to determine subsequent enforcement activity in response to this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WATCH:<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Polish Pastor Chases Cops Out of Church on Easter Weekend: \u2018Get Out!
