Doesn’t pass the smell test for me. Maybe the residents are the perps.
A distinct possibility.
Predominantly black church in Springfield, MA burned on
election night...construction was being done so it may be an accident, but there are charges of racism

>>A predominantly black church under construction in Springfield was destroyed by fire early yesterday, just hours after Barack Obama’s landmark victory, triggering concerns that the building was purposely set ablaze in a possible hate crime...The church, with a construction price tag of $2.5 million, had been more than 75 percent complete, Robinson said. But nothing inside could have sparked a fire on its own, he believes. The electrical system had not been installed.
>>No one had done anything inside that could have started the fire, he said. Instead, he fears the building was targeted, with the timing of the fire too coincidental to make it random. “Somebody came in there with an agenda of their own, I believe,” Robinson said, recalling days of black churches being torched in the South.
Ditto!
Me too. I don’t believe this at all.
Several years ago here in Detroit two similar situations occured. One new home was vandalized with anti-black slogans spray painted throughout the house and the other incident was the same.
Both were bogus claims and it was discovered that the new owners were responsible for the acts..........
