A Mississippi man accused of destroying a statue of a pagan idol at Iowa’s state Capitol is now being charged with a hate crime.

I’m sure the intent is acceptance, not anger.
The intent is to force feed some of their own medicine back down their throats, I believe
I believe this is the method, not the intended effect.

It’s funny that all of the responses, that are being upvoted while im being down voted, are all different when it comes to what their intent was.
And, no, it wasn’t to be destroyed. It’s to spread awareness about religious liberty.

Considering there are 3 of you and you all have different explanations, at least 2 have to be wrong. But I gave you the link to their reasoning, which is not what any of the three have said.

So it was made for a sole purpose, but now multiple reasons can be right. You’re now contradicting yourself.
The problem isn’t that I’m trolling, it’s that you’re too busy trying to be right rather than trying to figure out what’s right.

Look, it’s clear that you don’t understand TST.
What better way to spread awareness of religious liberty than to bait zealots into committing hate crimes, and then throwing the book at them?
Assholes like this guy are a direct threat to liberty. Expose them and make examples of them. Set the precedent that Christianity doesn’t excuse fascism before Christians set the opposite precedent.
Making people angry is probably the least effective way to get them to see your side. It’s well established that when people feel attacked, they are less open to changing their views. Of course, in cases like this, it’s probably impossible to avoid angering people.
But I see nothing in your post that actually shows what the TST thinks on this, only what you think is the best course of action.
I think the intend was definitely to protest and demand “Separation of church and state”. So problem wasn’t the nutjob destroying the idol, it was the nutjobs allowing religious displays in the Capitol building.
