The left has suddenly started to care about statues. Well, just one statue. And to no surprise, it's a Satanic statue.

A Christian Vet has been charged with a hate crime for beheading a Satanic statue at the Iowa State Capitol.

According to The Post Millennial:

“Michael Cassidy has been charged with a hate crime for beheading a statue of Satan at the Iowa Capitol. Cassidy drove up to Iowa after the Satanic display was erected in the state capitol and took it down. He will be arraigned on February 15.

Polk County prosecutors charged Cassidy with felony third-degree criminal mischief, saying that he acted ‘in violation of individual rights’ under Iowa's hate crime statute, the Des Moines Register reports.

Cassidy had been charged with a misdemeanor fourth-degree criminal mischief the day after the beheading but had been informed that he may be liable for further charges.

Spokesman for the Polk County Attorney's Office Lynn Hicks said that ‘Evidence shows the defendant made statements to law enforcement and the public indicating he destroyed the property because of the victim’s religion.’ This is what resulted in the hate crimes charge.”

All of a sudden Satanism is supposed to be a protective class. Is this Progressive prosecutor trying to establish that hating Satan is supposed to be a crime?

This is one reason why hate crimes are such an illogical premise. You can’t criminalize “hate”. We are supposed to hate what’s evil. That statue was evil. But we are to believe it’s a crime to hate that statue.

The very premise of establishing hate crimes is evil.

The Iowa Capitol had no right to place such an abhorrent statue on public property. These people are painfully deranged.

Satan is everything antithetical to God. You cannot love Satan unless you hate God.

Hating Satan is not a crime.

But none of this is surprising since Satan is the accuser of God’s people. And we all know they would have never let Christians put a statue up. But even if they did, which they wouldn't, I think we all know how different this outcome would have been had it has been reversed.

"'My conscience is held captive to the word of God, not to bureaucratic decree. And so I acted,' Cassidy said at the time. He has raised $84,000 for his legal defense on his GiveSendGo and Turning Point USA pledged $10,000 to help. Cassidy spoke at Turning Point USA's America Fest in Phoenix in December 2023, saying that the statue 'was an abomination."'

Cassidy is currently facing five years in prison. You can donate to his legal fund here.
