Yet Another Hate Crime Turns Out To Be A Hoax
Daily Caller ^ | 5/4/2017

A church organist was arrested Wednesday after he vandalized his own church with a swastika and pro-Trump graffiti in order to “mobilize a movement.” Do You Think There Is An Epidemic Of Hate Crime Hoaxes In America?

George Nathaniel Stang, 26, admitted in a handwritten statement to spray painting a swastika, “fag church,” and “heil Trump” on St. David’s Episcopal Church in Bean Blossom, Indiana. “I suppose I wanted to give local people a reason to fight for good, even if it was a false flag,” Stang wrote, according to a local NBC report. “To be clear my actions were not motivated by hate for the church or its congregation. I of course realize now, this was NOT the way to go about inspiring activism.”

The incident occurred in November shortly after President Trump was elected and was widely covered by the press. The Washington Post reported on it and connected it to Trump’s victory, “The offensive graffiti at St. David’s is among numerous incidents that have occurred in the wake of Trump’s Election Day win.”

They also mentioned the vandalism in a piece entitled, “The postelection hate spike: How long will it last?” It was mentioned in 15 articles by The Post, yet, as of publication time, they have yet to write about Stang’s arrest.

The vandalism was also covered by CNN in the story “‘Make America White Again’: Hate speech and crimes post-election.” Just like the Post, CNN has yet to write an updated story. (RELATED: Guy Named Jasskirat Saini Arrested For Writing ‘KKK’ On College Campus)

In the wake of Trump’s election there has been a surge in reported hate crimes, however, they frequently end up being hoaxes. The Daily Caller News Foundation reported on five hoaxes in the weeks after the November election, including a Muslim woman who lied about her hijab being stolen by Trump supporters. Just two weeks ago, a Muslim professor at an Indiana university was arrested after he fabricated anti-Muslim crimes.

As a church organist, I am ashamed of this stupidity.

A leftist so full of hate, he was willing to be dishonest and bear false witness against his neighbor. Yes, deception is dishonesty and he intended to start a war against Trump supporters with his lie.

From the article, it appears that he has a firm grip on his organ.

The WaPo got this one spot-on. Elements of the left have always fantasized about violent revolution, but I do not recall them ever being this active about trying to foment it. The left has been committing various forms of hate crimes almost non-stop since Trump won the election.

I answered my own question.

Gay Organist Confesses To Spray-Painting Anti-Gay Slurs On Church, Wanted To Mobilize A Movement!

“I’m very sad to have created more hate in a world that already has too much hate.”

I failed to find anything about his punishment for vandalism or property damage. Did I just miss it?

Very much like the other fake hate crime that got a lot of play just before the election. Church: CHECK, Trump / KKK graffiti: CHECK, Member of congregation: CHECK. But the other fake hate crime was mostly arson as well, and was before the election not after.
