Unfortunately these things are fairly common, I'm sure there have been a number of incidents like this since the film opened. As I noted earlier there was one at a local high school. Most of the time the perps aren't caught, and my impression is when they are they're usually hangers on or just plain vandals. Unfortunately the press has given a new meaning to what have been routine occurances, so you can anticipate similar articles. As yes, dems will use it, if I was a dem canvasser I would.

Aren't there somewhere around 500+ temple vandalisms per year in this country? (according to the ADL)

If so and this is the first since The Passion opened nearly 3 weeks ago then shouldn't there have been nearly 30 reports on temple vandalism since then (10 per week more or less)?

If this is the first then it looks like the averages are actually down a bit.

Maybe this is just the first to get some attention.

Somebody will vandalize at some point and leave a Passion calling card now and whether they are seriously anti-Jewish militants or Islmakazis ir just attention seeking kids...it won't matter.....unless it's an Islamakazi terr attack like the LA airport thing they squashed asap.
