....The cross being stolen sounds like a fraternity-type prank.

The cross being stolen and burned on a campus field was a protest against Mel Gibsons' "Passion" movie.

The students later said they didn't realize it was insensitive to blacks.

Gee, you're in college and you don't know that cross burning is a big no-no?

Look what idiots our education system are turning out these days.

So they were burning the cross to protest the cross? Are you saying this was an anti-christian thing? Where did you hear or read this?

The fact that they did not know about the significance of burning crosses for blacks (or Jews or Catholics) for that matter, is actually a hopeful sign. It means their leftist teachers and now their leftist profs have failed to indoctrinate them in the "catechism."
