For a good time, (don’t) call Pastor Greg Locke

Public restrooms at multiple convenience stores across Mt. Juliet, Lebanon, and Hermitage have been vandalized for several weeks — the writing asks the reader to call or text controversial pastor and adulterer Greg Locke and includes his personal cell phone number. Locke recently became quite ungodly when he found out local news outlet Scoop: Wilson had published unredacted photos at the start of his Sunday service. As his phone was flooded with hundreds of messages and calls, Locke decided to speak on the matter from the pulpit… and vowed to show up at their door or send his lawyer to force them to remove the images (video in story, along with full images). Remove the images, they did not.
