you should listen to what they have to say so you can be saved
My partner came back from college with a story about a preacher yesterday. He's a mature student (26 oh noes!), but most people doing his course are between 17 and 21. Apparently they stopped to listen to this preacher, who gave them leaflets and told them of the return of Jesus.
She stated that when Jesus returned, those that didn't praise and revere him would die for all eternity.
One of my partner's friends' responses was "ARE YOU THREATENING ME?!?!"
What made it even more brilliant a response was that he was apparently
genuinely scared about what she was saying. He thought the message was that Jesus was going to kill him!

Oh yeah, what should you do? Ignore them, like the vast, vast majority of people do. Or alternatively, get involved in politics and seek to amend any freedom of speech laws you may have. Freedom of speech causes way too many problems when the majority defines it as "I CAN SAY WHAT I WANT TO WHOEVER I WANT, NO MATTER HOW RACIST, HOMOPHOBIC OR HURTFUL, SO THERE!" rather than "I have the right to speak my mind about issues without getting thrown in the slammer."
