Police said the 30-year-old suspect, Michael David Fletcher, 30, walked into the bookstore around 9:15 a.m. and began knocking some books off the shelves, throwing books and overturning display stands all while referring to Bible verse Matthew 21:12.

Matthew 21:12 And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.

Based on what his wife just said it might be justified...

Felony charges? Felony?

Everything is a bad crime.

Criminal mischief was a catch all for not so bad offenses.

Now it is a felony.

Why, for speaking truth? Olsteen is a con, any televangelist with greased back hair is. Its almost a law of nature now. Anyone that follows olsteen or sends him money is deeply deluded. Especially after what his wife said. People will always be fooled by feel good preachers.

The den of thieves in the religious institutions today would make the one in the temple at the time of Christ look like a girl scout cookie sale.

First time I ever smoked pot was at the Lakewood Church...

Only then, it was the Summit and I was there for the Cars’ Heartbeat City Tour.

Full disclosure: that was well over half my life ago, haven’t used anything illegal since I joined the Navy a few months later, and the statute of limitations has long since expired.
