Church Fires

FINDINGS An average of 1,300 church fires are reported each year, causing $38 million in property loss.

The leading cause of church fires is arson (25%). S 30% of church fires are the result of mechanical failures. Faulty wiring and improperly functioning heating systems are often at fault, perhaps because they are in older structures and have not been brought up to local fire codes. Of churches that reported fires, 65% had no smoke alarms and 96% had no sprinkler system.

I’ve noticed in many of these, they don’t have any interviews with church members. Makes me wonder then how many of those really were white churches or multi-ethnic churches.

Obama’s world view:

Foreign terrorists = Freedom fighters
American patriots = Homegrown terrorists.

compare the ‘It must be racism’ of the charleston murders with the report on a similar terror attack on a church. http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,31191,00.html

to the attackers, it is not a race issue, but a religious one.

wonder what the press would have said if a muslim had entered the charleston church and murdered instead of a white man?

H/T to our FRiend Kaslin for the post.

Behold the Agenda in quick-march: the MSM and the grievance industry are ramping up the "racists-are-burning-black-churches" meme - burned, of course, by angry white males who, of course, are angry over their taking their flags away...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
Isaiah 21:6

And most of you guys are not going to get it, in the meantime, black churches are arming...are you?

[Mich Patriot]

So, right wing conservatives are going to start burning churches? Got it.

CNN is on at this moment helping perpetuate this theme, without even knowing a single fact.

CNN was going on and on about this last night.

On Monday, a Baltimore Sun lead editorial decried "a series of mysterious fires at African-American churches across the South" in the wake of the Charleston murders. The newspaper cited a "pattern" of attacks, including what it claimed was an "uptick in attacks on 37 black churches in the South" in the 1990s that "prompted President Bill Clinton to set up a church-arson investigative task force."

The Sun neglected to mention that Clinton had falsely claimed at the time that he had "vivid and painful memories of black churches being burned in my own state when I was a child"-- an assertion immediately debunked by the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

The Sun also neglected to mention that the manufactured media coverage that launched the 1990s black church arson juggernaut, fueled by former USA Today reporter Gary Fields' 61 fear-mongering stories, fell apart under scrutiny. Fields' own employer was forced to admit that "analysis of the 64 fires since 1995 shows only four can be conclusively shown to be racially motivated."

Reminder: Several of the hyped hate crimes against black churches had been committed by black suspects; a significant number of the black churches were, in fact, white churches; and the complex motives behind the crimes included mental illness, vandalism and concealment of theft. Once again, falsified history is repeating itself.

Wow . . . Bible-hating atheist liberals who think religion is evil and the cause of all our problems sure seem mighty protective of Black churches.

I wonder why?
