Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ® said he would support the legal fund of a man who is accused of vandalizing a display by The Satanic Temple inside the Iowa Capitol on Thursday.
Michael Cassidy was charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief for knocking over and destroying a statue erected by the temple inside the capitol, The Des Moines Register first reported.
“Satan has no place in our society and should not be recognized as a ‘religion’ by the federal government,” DeSantis said on X, formerly Twitter. “I’ll chip in to contribute to this veteran’s legal defense fund. Good prevails over evil — that’s the American spirit.”
I don’t think they’re encouraging drama. This story would be a nothing-burger if the Christians hadn’t lost their damn minds about it.
Paraphrased: You don’t think they’re encouraging drama. This wouldn’t have been a story if so much drama wasn’t encouraged.
They know their target :-). The fact that those Christians are so readily triggered by nonsense is predictable.
