Teens? No. They are adults at the ages of 18 and 19. They are adult arsonists, and they must be punished accordingly if found guilty.

[virgil]

18 and 19 yo. They’re old enough to vote and serve in the military. Those are men.

In AZ we have Mickey D’s. Horrible stuff and only available in 40 ounces. My son and his friends used to drink it 20+ years ago and you only needed 1, which is all they could afford. 🤣

[dfwgator]

Well if we refer to blacks as “Amish”, maybe we should refer to these guys as “Watusis”.

[Wilhelm Tell]

Or maybe “Natty Parental Unit Beer”

[GaltAdonis]

A shame - looked like a beautiful church.

[ViLaLuz]

The one on the left looks like the Geico caveman.

[healy61]

caning would be a fair punishment.

[healy61]

Natural Lite Beer. Probably tall boys.

[SamuraiScot]

caning would be a fair punishment.

An option. Looking at that church interior, I'd favor hanging.

The historic Saint Colman church was built in 1878 on Irish Mountain. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 as a landmark reminder of the prominent Irish immigrant community that settled on the mountain.

Stupid little jerks. Destroying a church that is also historical landmark.

The participation trophy and time-out culture strikes again.

"Stupid little jerks. Destroying a church that is also historical landmark."

I very much doubt these two have much in the way of any developed political or economic philosophy, but this is a perfect illustration of precisely why marxism takes hold and needs to be vigorously and vigalently opposed. It takes entrepreneurs, craftsmen, visionary thinkers and hard work to create. Any dullard can destroy.

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

Proud mommas.

[Allegra]

I very much doubt these two have much in the way of any developed political or economic philosophy…

Exactly. Just a couple of stupid, selfish little jerks.

They were probably overindulged growing up and every demand they made was promptly met by their parents or teachers.

[Fireone]

Mandatory sentence in this case should be:
Paying restitution to the church for the rest of their miserable lives.
Let them keep the first $150. of any paycheck they receive, the rest goes to the church. Let them own nothing.

[muir_redwoods]

18 and 19 year-olds are adults. Charge, try and sentence them accordingly.

[xone]

Are there no trees in WV?

[NorthMountain]

Sometimes, sheer stupidity is its own explanation. I bet these two geniuses think Roe v Wade is an MMA match.

[NorthMountain]

That's a beautiful church, but it's not the one these 'tards burned.

They burned this backwoods colonial-era church, built by hand by the priest who founded the Parish.
