The Atlantic: "A Black Church Burned in the Name of Trump"
A black church in Greenville, Mississippi, was set on fire on Tuesday night. Fire fighters arrived to find Hopewell Missionary Baptist Church “heavily engulfed in flames,” Mayor Errick Simmons said in an interview; the fire took nearly an hour to contain. No one was in the church at the time, and no one was injured. On the side of the church, beneath the blackened windows and roof, the words “Vote Trump” have been spray painted.
The fire is being investigated as a hate crime, Simmons said. Federal authorities, including the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives, are helping local authorities with the investigation, which is part of the standard procedure for church fires. “We’re very cautious in this climate, in this day and time, to make sure we’re very deliberate in investigating matters like this,” Simmons said. This fire was “a direct assault on people’s right to free worship,” he said, and later added during a press conference, “I see this as an attack on the black church and the black community.”
By and large, Simmons said, he expects the people of Greenville and the surrounding county of Washington will support Hillary Clinton.
And a conclusion had been reached by Emma Green at the Atlantic...
One thing is clear, though: At some point, someone decided to attach the name of Trump to a burned black church.
You know the rest of the article already. Jim Crow, etc... except there's a little bit of a twist.
Mississippi authorities arrested a man Wednesday in the burning of an African-American church that was also spray-painted with the words, “Vote Trump.”
Andrew McClinton of Leland, Mississippi, was charged with first degree arson of a place of worship, said Warren Strain, spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. McClinton is African-American.Strain said McClinton attended the church, CBS affiliate WJTV reports.
So much for that. But one lie dies and another takes its place.
