Historic West Virginia Catholic church burned to ground by arsonist, police say

LINK

A historic Catholic church in West Virginia burned to the ground this weekend, and police are now investigating the incident as arson.

St. Colman Catholic Church was already a smoldering ruin when firefighters from the Beaver Volunteer Fire Department arrived to the scene Sunday morning. The church was built in 1878 and was declared an official historical site in 1984.

Authorities have not released information about potential suspects.

The alleged arson comes as Catholic churches across the U.S. and in Canada have faced a spate of vandalism and arson attacks in recent years.

The church burnings rose amid protests against Canada's now-defunct residential schools program. The program saw Catholic-run schools tasked with forcibly assimilating indigenous children from the late 1800's to 1970.

Watch the mental gymnastics at play when they declare this isn't a hate crime.

There's been some craziness in Chicago targeting Catholic churches in the last couple of days; but it's mostly just some ugly bitches doing graffiti and being indecent.

My 15 year old asked if he could bring a rifle when he served Mass.
