Well it looks like if you’re a terrorist in the state of Florida that you are safe from prosecution if you are a god fearing Christian, as was proven recently by the Jesus warrior Susan Hemeryck. Recently she made the news when she entered the Florida state capital in Tallahassee and was offended by the shrine to Satan that had been put up The Satanic Temple, but in her twisted little mind godless heathens are not allowed the same civil liberties as the rest of America. So she began to take apart the display and walk away with it to do god knows what, her heavenly plans were thwarted though she capital security stopped her and promptly has her arrested.
In her defense she stated that she was expressing her religious freedom by denying it to those who disagree with her, her case went to the prosecutor’s office who initially offered her a plea deal but she decided to fight it. Well looks like the prosecutors didn't want to touch this case with a ten foot pole because they just announced that they are dropping all charges against her. We all know if the tables were turned and one of us pot smoking godless heathens went and damaged a Christian display there would have been no leniency whatsoever, you would certainly be hit with some fines and community service and possible jail time. On top of that every church leader would be on TV whining how godis under attack in this country, and use it to scare and guilt trip their followers into pouring more money into their collection plates.
This incident is just another example of the Christian privilege that exists in our country, and especially down here in the bible belt of the Florida panhandle. A lot of people will get upset if you refer to any part of Florida being part of the Bible belt, but the truth is it extends all the way down to at least the Ocala area. Anyone who lives in Jacksonville can tell you how the Baptist church runs that town, and when I worked at a certain FSU department we had to say a prayer before our business meetings. Tallahassee has been ruled over by bible thumping state attorney Willie Meggs, ironically the same prosecutor’s office that gave this woman a pass on her act of vandalism. Willie Meggs is notorious from going on a rampage against local video rental shops trying to stop them from renting pornographic videos and DVD’s, ultimately he was unsuccessful but he put a lot of business owners out of business due to their legal fees. So it’s pretty obvious as to why she got off so easy, and now her and other Florida religious leaders are gloating on how god blessed them with this victory against the power of Satan. Well hallefuckingluah hope they are happy.
