Suspect in custody in church burnings

Many of you know that three historically-black churches in Louisiana were torched in a ten day period earlier this month.

It's an ugly thing. It's clearly a hate crime. Crimes like that have become more prevalent in the last couple of years.

America's Hater-in-Chief is clearly inciting violence against people he dislikes. It's something he's been doing since before he was elected.

This article lays out many--if not all--of the times he egged on his hateful followers but it's about six months old. The poser prez has dipped into his well of hate many times since.

It's a good thing--a very good thing--that Law Enforcement arrested the alleged arsonist pretty quickly.

He's the son of a Deputy Sheriff and has no prior arrests.

But he's another in a long procession of hateful white people in the south who are just itching to inflict as much damage as possible on people of color.

It's a very severe problem, especially in the south and it's getting steadily worse.

If our president had a shred of conscience and even one once of compassion, he would be trying to address this situation and make it better.

But he doesn't and he seems to be doing everything in his considerable power to make it worse.

Churches are burning and this lying, loser prez is fanning the flames.

Hate crimes and tRump tweets linked?

Teagan Goodard's excellent site Politicalwire.com regularly features content you're not likely to find on most news sites. I probably read 20-30 articles on the net daily and P'wire is by far the one where I'm most likely to get scooped and thereby get up to speed on something of considerable importance that had previously escaped my attention.

One of today's excellent posts features a recent study that shows a link between tRump's frequently hateful tweets and acts of violence, against Muslims, specifically. The eye-opening study was done by researchers Karsten Müller and Carlo Schwarz.

It does get a bit technical but it's well worth a read. I've never doubted that the twitter outrages from the Poser Prez do lead to hateful acting out, and it's good to see that my suspicions are born out by some evidence.

If you're not familiar with this excellent site, follow this link to check out Politicalwire.com.
