Reply #171: Oh come on- this just is more Washington Post propoaganda [View All]

designed specifically to further the far right's "religious persecution" dogma.

How anyone can take the Washington Post at face value after these last 4-5 (actually over the past 10) years is beyond me. I seriously doubt that there's any higher incidence of vandalism here that can't be explained by higher reporting, the poor economy or by habits developed during the campaign.

About 10 years ago, I was in Australia and they were in a miff about a rash of stolen or defaced garden gnomes across the country. Being Austrlians, they took the vandalism seriosly, and you'd read where people were being prosecuted for pinching gnomes and for receiving stolen ones.

This "story" even if true isn't any different.
