Teen Charged in Arson Over Prop. 8

A sign in a pickup supporting the Nov. 4 proposition that would ban gay marriage apparently provoked a 15-year-old boy, who attempted to torch the vehicle and was later arrested for arson and vandalism Wednesday.

Witnesses reported seeing juveniles throwing lit paper into the truck parked near the high school, LBPD Sgt. Jason Kravetz said.

Police later learned the pickup's owner was visiting Laguna to watch his daughter in a sports event.

Officers arrived to find the smoldering remains of a fire in the bed of a Ford 150 pickup. Firefighters made sure there was no further risk.

"The responding officers were able to gather evidence leading them to two 15-year-olds as possible suspects, one female and one male from Laguna Beach," Kravetz said. The female was determined to be a witness, but the male was detained for arson and vandalism and eventually released to his parents.

Before throwing lit papers into the pickup truck's bed, Kravetz said the boy allegedly threw the "Yes on 8" sign from the pickup into the street and using a marker wrote "No on 8" on the passenger door.

Lord Of The Flies. The Left's love for those who disagree with them is vividly displayed for all to see.

And Peter Frampton is crying a river because somebody keeps stealing his “I Love Obama” signs from his front yard.

He’s going to enjoy prison almost as much as they’ll enjoy him.
He might even end up getting married while he’s there.

Lord Of The Flies.

I have been thinking of that book as I ponder the possibility of an Obama administration working in conjunction with a Pelosi House and a Reid Senate.

With the teachers union goons promoting the homosexual agenda to kindergarteners (and if they get their way, pre-K), expect that number to go much lower.

Hey—it’s Laguna! What do ya expect? LOL
(FWIW, that one was a letter to the editor)

Laguna Beach is an open society, where all kinds of people have always been welcome.

Our city council’s concern for the homeless, the day worker hiring area and their opposition to proposition 22’s anti marriage equality measure is another chapter in our city’s proud history of caring and greeting all people.

I have not heard of any hatred exressed by the people in favor of traditional marriage towards the homosexuals.

The gay activists talk so much about how their is homophobia in straight society, yadda, yadda, yadda, but I have seen or heard nothing related to that in this campaign. Yet there have been a number of incidents in which those who support homosexual marriage have inflicted violence on those who support traditional marriage.

So which side is the intolerant bigoted hateful side?????

If by some miracle McCain wins on Tuesday, they'll never allow him to govern.

This cannot be emphasized enough.

Break his leg with a baseball bat, if he deserves it. But; never, ever fu*k with his vehicle.

I can't remember which Texas judge said "I've seen a lot of men that needed hangin', but I've never seen a horse that needed stealin'"

Here’s a murder story the left doesn’t want publicized.

A hetero male apparently drugged, raped and murdered by his gay “friends.”
