I dream of animatronic Jesus

I just had a dream in which I was walking down a sidewalk in a place I know. There was a church yard sale going on except there was someone unexpected in attendance: Jesus. However, this wasn't the Jesus that you think of that was supposed to be on the cross, this was an automaton. At this point I laughed to myself, why would they disrespect their savior by making such a low quality imitation? As I was leaving and thinking of the odd encounter, I walked past a man with a device that looked like a breathalyzer device who was pointing it at people, having it blow air at them and it would record their identity. I am fairly certain he was the pastor, or at least a deacon of the church. He was bald with a reddish, unkempt beard and glasses.

I did not like what was going on, so I walked faster to leave the area. He scanned the last of the group of homeless men as I walked out of the shade that he was in. At this point I think I am home free and a young boy runs out of the structure with the device and aims it at me. I am at least 15 meters away when he activates the device then I feel a strong, cool gust of air blow in my face as the device says my name loud enough for everyone in 5 meters to hear. At this point I could feel the rage boiling inside of me. I was going to take the biometric reader and shatter the damn thing. My privacy had just been maliciously violated.

The boy looks at the scanner and screams "You a redneck, dis guy is a redneck!...." he continued on as I walked up to take the device. My response to his attempt at humiliating me was to illuminate to the others watching this scene that he was acting very racist(It was a young black boy). I began talking about the fact how he was making my physical attributes an issue when he very well should have not in public as I was making an effort to get the scanner away from him. the last thing I remember was the bald man who previously had the scanner intervening on the side of the boy.

There was more, but it has faded into ether. I do remember that along with animatronic Jesus there was a talking head of another biblical character that was being used as a PA system. Both it and the Jesus were very poor, rubber skinned machines that reeked of gimmick.
