White Christian terrorist participating in hate speech. FTFY
Could you imagine what people would be saying if a Satanist did the same thing to a cross or nativity scene? I have to drive by multiple eyesore churches everyday that take up valuable real estate just to extort the gullible out of some of their money a few times a week. They all have giant parking lots that are partially used 2 maybe 3 times a week but with tow trucks ready to remove any cars that might park there outside of those times. Then they ruin traffic for miles around every Sunday because for some reason they need to pay off duty cop to bring their police cars just to help these morons leave their giant, mostly unused parking lot. And yet I've never once destroyed our vandalized one because I'm not a terrible person, AKA a large majority of people who label themselves as followers of Christ. Making sure homeless people can't sleep in their cars in your parking lot while it's not being used, just like Jesus would have wanted.
