Here we go again: another liberal narrative burned to a crisp.
Over a two-week period in October, an arsonist targeted seven churches in the St. Louis area -- including several in Black Lives Matter protest hotspot Ferguson, Missouri.
The Atlantic magazine, invoking the "long history of terrorism against black churches in America," lamented that the crime spree had been "slow to get the same attention" in the local and national media as another string of church arsons that occurred earlier this summer.

Reminder: The same hyperventilators who stoked fears about this summer''s church incidents had also stoked hysteria about the 1990s black church arson "epidemic" that fell apart under scrutiny and ended with USA Today admitting that "analysis of the 64 fires since 1995 shows only four can be conclusively shown to be racially motivated."
Undaunted, agitators did their best to fan the flames over the latest alleged wave of race-based black church burnings in October.

Because they hate whitey and blame him for all that’s wrong with the world.
Yep...The dash cam of the “Dean” in TX showed her to be the liar she is.
Reminds me of the Wayne Williams case. Turned out the Atlanta area serial killings of blacks that most were attributing to the Klan or Klan sympathizer(s) were committed by a black serial killer, Wayne Williams (blacks are never serial killers).
“..blacks are never serial killers.”
—His white half made him do it.
I’m sure the arsonist self-identified as white, therefore....

The waitress will give him a couple of minutes to decide.
Good article, thanks for linking.
I remember a good part of that, especially Willie Boy’s grandstanding.
Logically, I knew he had to be black from the first I heard about it. These churches are in black neighborhoods where you would rarely see a white man even in broad daylight.
No! Why, this is impossible, if only because nothing like this has ever before happened.
And yet, many blacks refused to believe it, and likely still do.
