The former candidate for the Mississippi House of Representatives, Michael Cassidy, was charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief for damaging the statue placed there by the Satanic Temple Iowa, according to KCCI.

Cassidy allegedly pushed the Baphomet statue over before decapitating it.

The reaction to the statue at the Iowa State Capitol caused outrage after the Satanic Temple received permission.

Perhaps they’re hiding behind the Common Sense caps.

If he would have toppled a statue of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, or other patriot, they’d not bring any charges.

Looks like a "mostly peaceful" expression of first amendment rights to me.

The State is evil for having permitted this statue to be placed where it was.

This man deserves the biggest medal anyone could find. I am sure that he will have many blessings when he gets to heaven. May GOD ALMIGHTY bless him and his family and keep all of them safe from any harm. Amen

They would probably make him governor.

No different than Gideon destroying the altar of Baal.
If Baal is a true god then let Baal plead for Baal because one has torn down his altar.

I’ve scanned the comments.

It seems that most are missing the fact that this happened in Iowa.

The infection is much more serious than some might admit.

I revert back to a recent comment, applicable also to this case (and nearly all regarding leftism/progressivism):

Good. Over three times what he expected to need for the charges, but he'll probably be target with infinite lawsuits.
