Meet Matthew Lee Cloyd, 20. He and his college buddies decided to have some "fun". They thought it would be a barrell of laughs to burn down some churches in Alabama. He thinks of it as "a joke and it got out of hand." A joke, huh? Burning down a church is a "joke"?
All along I was praying for these little bastards to be caught and given a one-way ticket to hell. Now they got them, but wait, are people are making excuses for this?
Gov. Bob Riley said the fires did not appear to be "any type of conspiracy against organized religion" or the Baptist faith. With the arrests, he said, "the faith-based community can rest a little easier."
We can all rest easier knowing that it wasn't a band of Islamics terrorizing Jesustown, that is correct. It was punk kids terrorizing Jesustown.
This happened for a reason. There is an important lesson to be learned in all of this, but I just haven't developed that idea fully yet.
What do you think about all of this? How many years in the federal pen do they deserve? Should they be hanged live on TV by the local sheriff?
