Sen. Kay Hagan's North Carolina Office Vandalized
By Christopher Weber - Politics DailyPolice in North Carolina are looking for a vandal who was caught on surveillance video spray-painting swastikas on the front of Sen.

ThinkProgress pointed out that some of the graffiti appeared to be lyrics from the ...
Harvard: Urine on Gay Books Was Accident, Not Hate Crime
By Deborah Hastings - AOL News(Dec. 14) -- Those gay-themed books that were soaked with urine at a Harvard College library were not a hate crime after all, the school says, but a simple accident caused by a staffer who spilled a bottle of liquid waste on 36 tomes. Why a bottle of urine was sitting on a library shelf in the first place has yet to be explained. "This incident was initially reported as vandalism and characterized as a hate crime," Evelynn Hammonds, dean of Harvard College, wrote Monday on the university's website. "We have learned this morning that the books, while indeed damaged, were damaged by our own ...
Cult Blamed for Cemetery Vandalism, Theft of Body
By David Lohr - AOL News(Aug. 28) -- Acts of vandalism and the theft of a nine-year-old girl's body have residents of Lancaster, Pa., concerned that a cult could be practicing black magic in the area.

"We've just been hearing about this stuff all summer. I think some of it has to do with local kids, but other things seem to be tied into some kind of ritual." In the past few months, unknown vandals have struck at Woodward ...
Earthquake Causes: From Lunar to Looney
By David Moye - AOL News(April 20) -- Although scientists are working nonstop to learn all they can about earthquakes, some people already have the answers. At least they think they do. For instance, one Iranian cleric is blaming all the recent earth-shaking activity in Mexico's Baja California, Chile and Haiti on booty-shaking women flaunting their sexuality. Courtesy the Rev. Brian Keneipp The Rev. Brian Keneipp says the recent rash of earthquakes is karmic payback for the violent way NASA's LCROSS rocket gashed into the moon's surface. According to Fox News, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, a senior Iranian cleric, ...
Sarah Palin Sticks to Her Guns, and Gun Imagery, in Message to Supporters
By David Sessions - Politics DailyIn a message posted on her Facebook page Sunday afternoon, Sarah Palin reiterated her call for supporters to "reload" in the battle against health care reform, a term that provoked controversy last week after critics accused her of inciting violence against members of Congress. Presenting her message as an exhortation to college basketball teams competing in March Madness, Palin stood her ground in using firearm imagery against the administration. "The crossfire is intense, so penetrate through enemy territory by bombing through the press, and use your strong weapons -- your Big Guns -- to ...
War On Christmas: Stealing Jesus
By Caleb Howe - Politics DailyDay nine of Tommy and Caleb's Twelve Days of the War on Christmas. The culture battles in the war on Christmas are often comprised of small skirmishes. When interviewing Rev. Robert Schenck last week about Nancy Pelosi he told me about a type of vandalism that Nativity scenes across the nation endure, and which his own Faith and Action group had dealt with many times before: baby Jesus theft. You see, each year, Faith and Action displays a nativity on the front lawn of their DC office. Like many other nativity scenes, this one was routinely vandalized, usually by dint of theft. ...
