'What Has Become of America?' Man Who Defaced Satan Statue in Iowa Charged With a Hate Crime

AngieArtist

Back in December, Michael Cassidy knocked down and beheaded a statue of Satan that was erected in the Iowa State Capitol.

Yesterday, he was charged with a hate crime.

Wow,

More from 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 statue, 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.

Now, we clearly remember lots of statues being torn down and defaced during the BLM riots in 2020, and in the subsequent years.

Has even one of those people been charged with a hate crime?

No, they have not.

There are good faith arguments to be made both for and against displaying a statue to Satan on public grounds. We can't get into them here, but that's beside the point. Why is he charged with a hate crime, but not one of the BLM protesters?

It's a mess, that's for sure.

We just have no words.

We're not kidding. It's also why the Left can block roads indiscriminately, but pro-lifers face 11 years in prison for praying outside abortion clinics.

There are clearly two systems of justice at play here.

One for the Left and their particular causes, and one for everyone else.

Yes, it does. And bias.

Here's a list of the statues toppled. Why no charges?

This is true. But if there are going to be hate crime enhancers, they should be equally applied.

If not, they should be repealed.

And, yet, we have not heard one person -- not from the 'criminal justice reform' Left or the 'constitution' right -- run on a platform of repealing hate crime enhancers.

This is the way.

Yes it is. Peak Western culture.

You won't like it, because if you think things are bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet.

It's what commies do best, alas.

Remember -- Iowa is a red state. And he's still charged with a hate crime.

There's a standard for the Left, and a standard for everyone else.

Yet 'no one is above the law', right?

But look, here's a solution.

Problem solved!
