JEHOVAH'S WITNESS IMPRISONMENT IN THE UNITED STATES

During the [war] period, over 4,300 Witnesses in the United States were imprisoned for their refusal to join the military - watchtower 2009, Oct 1, p. 31

“Since the turn of the century, the Jehovah’s Witnesses have consistently maintained their stand of nonviolent ‘Christian Neutrality’ through two major world wars and the subsequent military clashes of the ‘Cold War’ period. Their continuing stand against national service of any form, military or civilian, and their refusal to honor symbols of national identity have resulted in periods of prosecution, imprisonment, and mob action in many countries throughout the world, including the United States, Canada and Germany.”—University of Michigan Press, p. 23.

PERSONAL TESTIMONIES

** "When the United States entered World War II in 1941, there was widespread opposition to Jehovah’s Witnesses due to their stand of neutrality. (Isaiah 2:4) Mobs were formed against them throughout the country, and thousands of young Witnesses were imprisoned." - Samuel B. Friend
w86 8/1 p. 24

** "Despite the documented evidence of my being a minister of the gospel, in the fall of 1943 I was sentenced to five years in the federal penitentiary at Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. I was not the only Witness in Lewisburg, though, for there were about 50 other brothers there too. By the time I was released, the number had grown to about 200" - Simon Kraker, w 86 2/1 p. 22

** It was reported that from 1940 to 1944, Jehovah’s Witnesses in the United States suffered more than 2,500 violent mob assaults. The persecution increased when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. [...] because I refused to discontinue my ministry and report for military training, the FBI arrested me and instructed me to report to the federal court in Syracuse, New York, the following week for trial. [...]I received a sentence of four years in the federal prison in Chillicothe, Ohio." - Edmund Schmidt w10 9/1 p. 26

** "For a while I had a circuit of twenty-one prisons to visit during World War II [...] I visited them every six weeks to encourage our brothers who were confined there because of their refusal to violate their Christian neutrality." A. H. Macmillan, w66 8/15 p. 504

On May 17, 1936, 176 Witnesses were arrested for preaching in La Grange [Georgia, USA] and were jailed. The next day the women were released, but 76 men were detained for fourteen days in the Troup County Prison and Stockade, four miles outside the city. The regular inmates there were chain-gang prisoners, who actually were shackled while working on roads from sunup to sundown. When the Witnesses were tried, they were pronounced guilty [...] the brothers lost their appeal rights and 57 returned to complete the thirty-day sentence in the stockade on May 28, 1937. Despite their innocence, these Witnesses now wore prison garb, two persons had to share one blanket during the cold nights, and they did hard labor on streets and elsewhere. - Yearbook of Jehovah's Witnesses 1975 p. 176
