That was from an episode of Dragnet was it not? I saw that, it was so cute.

This seems to happen every December here in Massachusetts. It’s distressing.

It’s distressing that it seems to happen in some town every Christmas season.

So is this a hate crime? If not, why not?

One thing is certain, it wasn’t a Catholic who did this crime. Mary was left behind.

Yes it is. And that’s “just the facts ma’am”.

If people would only learn!

The Baby Jesus doesn’t go into the Christmas scene until Christmas eve!

I think someone stole a plastic ornament.

Stealing baby Jesus would require time-travel and other skills.

Right you are, smvoice! If the thieves were Catholics, they would have taken Jesus, Mary, Joseph, shepherds, kings, angels and all. You know, the Communion of Saints!

Sounds as if it may be necessary to put concertina wire around a nativity scene. Electrified concertina wire.
