Flag Burning Car Arsonists Just Stupid, Not Seditious
2005-07-28
Just heard this on the radio. It's all I can find right now:

LAST WEEKEND, SOMEONE STOLE FLAGS FROM THE YARD OF A FAIRFIELD FAMILY'S HOME, AND SET THEM ON FIRE, ALONG WITH THEIR CAR. TODAY, FAIRFIELD POLICE SAY THEY'VE GOT THE VANDALS IN CUSTODY. 2 BOYS, 13 AND 15 YEARS OLD, HAVE EACH BEEN CHARGED WITH ONE COUNT OF ARSON, AND 2 COUNTS OF CRIMINAL MISCHIEF. BOTH ADMITTED THEIR INVOLVEMENT AND WERE TURNED OVER TO THEIR PARENTS.
CHIEF MIKE DICKEY SAYS THEY DON'T BELIEVE THE BOYS KNEW THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FLAGS. THE WESSEL FAMILY HAD JUST BURIED THEIR SON IN LAW, P-F-C TIM HINES. HE DIED FROM INJURIES SUSTAINED IN IRAQ.

#5  "CHIEF MIKE DICKEY' needs to look and see where he leftr his balls. He shouldn't be letting arsonists loose, no matter their age.

#4  Fairfield Ohio? I bet they're "challenged" from the shallow end of the gene pool. Make em pay and let the community know who did it. Punishment enough in a small town :-)

#3  Fairfield may be a Donk-heavy neighborhood (I'm not sure), but I don't think it's the haunt of wealthy families.

The kids should get the maximum, and their families should be held responsible, too.

#2  You don't suppose the boys and their parents would be interested in buying the widow Hines a brand new car to replace the one the boys destroyed? Maybe that will help them understand the significance of their act. A few months in jail might help,also.

#1  Burn these little bastards and their folks who are I bet leftist turds of the first order, fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. A car was torched, a felony. These little creeps should still be in jail! Want to bet the folks are rich and influential local donks.
